Due to increased COVID-19 transmission risk throughout the province, the Chief Medical Health Officer has extended all current provincial public health orders until May 10.  The orders will be reviewed at that time. 

Current public health orders restrict all private indoor gatherings to immediate household only and limit outdoor gatherings to maximum of 10 people.  Physical distancing of at least two metres between households must be maintained. 

Due to increased COVID-19 transmission risk, additional restrictions are in place for Regina and area including: all restaurants and licensed establishments must remain closed for in-person dining, with take-out and delivery permitted. 

Travel is also not recommended in or out of the Regina area unless absolutely necessary.  It is strongly recommended that all individuals able to work from home do so.

Full details on current public health measures can be found at www.saskatchewan.ca/covid19-measures.  

All residents are urged to adhere to best personal protective measures:

  • Wear your mask in all public places including all workplaces
  • Wash non-medical masks daily
  • Maintain physical distancing
  • Wash your hands frequently
  • Reduce activities outside of your home.  Order take-out or curbside pick-up.  If you are able to work from home, work from home at this time.
  • Avoid all unnecessary travel throughout the province at this time

If you have any symptoms, stay home and arrange for a COVID-19 test.  If anyone in your home has symptoms, the entire household should remain home until the test results are known.  Testing information is available at www.saskatchewan.ca/government/health-care-administration-and-provider-resources/treatment-procedures-and-guidelines/emerging-public-health-issues/2019-novel-coronavirus/testing-information.

Updates to guidelines for sports and activities (individual outdoor non-contact sports)

Public health guidance for individual, outdoor non-contact sports (tennis, pickleball, etc.) has been updated at www.saskatchewan.ca/government/health-care-administration-and-provider-resources/treatment-procedures-and-guidelines/emerging-public-health-issues/2019-novel-coronavirus/re-open-saskatchewan-plan/guidelines/outdoor-sports-and-activities-guidelines

Note that the risk of transmission of COVID-19 remains high, with the risk variants of concern throughout the province.  The Ministry of Health will continue to review all outdoor event guidance relative to this risk and may be updated at any point, as required.  Planned events and activities must abide by the guidance in place at the time of the event/activity.  

As of April 20, the guidelines regarding outdoor gatherings remain in effect:  outdoor gatherings are limited to ten individuals, with individual households maintaining physical distancing of two metres from other individual households.  There is no shared food or drink permitted.
