There were 3,122 COVID-19 tests processed in Saskatchewan on April 6, 2021.

To date, 690,450 COVID-19 tests have been processed in Saskatchewan. 聽As of April 5, 2021, when other provincial and national numbers were available, Saskatchewan's per capita rate was 578,979 tests performed per million population.聽 The national rate was 746,323 tests performed per million population.

As of April 7, 2,830 variants of concern have been identified by screening in Saskatchewan, reported in the Far North West (2), Far North East (4) North West (6),聽North Central (19), Saskatoon (178), Central West (12), Central East (60), Regina (1,986), 小蓝视频 West (14), 小蓝视频 Central (245) and 小蓝视频 East (232) zones.聽 There are 72 cases with area of residence pending.

There are zero (0) new lineage results 小蓝视频 reported today. 聽Of the 951 VOCs with lineages identified by whole genome sequencing in Saskatchewan, 943 are B.1.1.1.7 (UK) and eight are B.1.351 (SA).聽 The Regina zone accounts for 802 (84 per cent) of the VOC cases with confirmed lineage reported in Saskatchewan.

Please note that these VOC may have been initially identified via means other than screening (i.e. selection for whole genome sequencing without screening) and that whole genome sequencing results to identify lineage are included in the screening results.

Confirmed variant of concern cases may appear in both columns on the website, depending on testing for that case.聽 Adding the cases identified by screening and those that have received whole genome sequencing may result in double-counting individual cases.聽聽
