Six more positive cases of COVID-19 were reported in the province’s daily report Thursday.

This gives Saskatchewan a total of 389 positive cases since March when the first one came in.

Three of the new cases are from the north region – including two in Lloydminster – two more are from Saskatoon and one more is from the far north.

Of the 389 provincial cases, 137 are travel-related, 159 are community contacts or mass gatherings, 36 have no known exposures and 57 are under investigation by public health.

Thirty-nine of the cases are health care workers, and the province says the infections may not be because of their health care in all instances.
