Saskatchewan has hit a tragic milestone, formally surpassing 100 coronavirus-related deaths on Thursday.

Seven deaths were added to the province’s death toll for a total of 105, according to the Saskatchewan government. Five of the deceased who tested positive for COVID-19 were in the 80-plus age group, while another was in their 40s and the seventh was in their 60s.

The government also announced Thursday that the isolation period for COVID-19-positive people has been reduced from 14 to 10 days, effective immediately. People who are already in self-isolation should still continue to wait for public health to confirm they are recovered, according to government officials.

Health officials said there were 238 new cases in the daily update on Thursday, with the overall total for the province growing to 12,832 since the first case was reported in March.
