There are 20 new cases of COVID-19 in Saskatchewan, bringing the provincial total to 746.

Eighteen of the new cases are in the South region. It is believed a majority of those cases stem from an outbreak declared earlier this week in the R.M of Maple Creek.  The other two cases are in the Far North region.

Of the 746 reported COVID-19 cases in Saskatchewan, 88 are considered active.

Two of the cases that tested positive are people who reside out-of-province and are under investigation.  A total of 643 people have recovered.

Three people are in intensive care: one in Saskatoon and two in the South.
