"There have been more cases in youth under the age of 19 and more cases in schools." The doctors said they want the government to step up public-health measures across the province to be consistent with what is in place in Regina. The capital region has become a hot spot for the more contagious COVID-19 variants, forcing the government to implement stricter rules. In Regina and some surrounding communities, private indoor gatherings are limited to household members, restaurants are closed for in-person dining, in-person worship services are capped at 30 people and all event venues are shuttered. Restrictions in the rest of the province include allowing individual households to have up to 10 people at a time from two to three different households. Worship services can also have up to 30 per cent of a building’s seating capacity or 150 attendees, whichever is less.
