Ensure safety and limit travel

Saskatchewan is a land of living skies and long highways. In states as large as us, travel is often needed to meet the daily needs of our inhabitants, but we also begin to take advantage of warm weather to plan our escape. At this time, continue to minimize movement. If residents are traveling outside the community, there are best practices that can help reduce the risk of COVID-19 infection.

• Continue to follow the guidance of the current Public Health Order.
• Manage as many retail or business needs as possible in your home community ahead of other destinations.
• If you are traveling to or from Where COVID-19 increased Consider whether you can delay sending and traveling.
• If possible, travel in the same car as a member of your immediate household.
• Travel directly from your home community to your destination without unnecessary stops.
• When you arrive at your destination, try to stay as low as possible and minimize contact with the inhabitants of the community.
• Document the date of your trip and the location of your stop in case you need to refer to it later.
• Medical appointments are considered an essential trip, but if possible, access medical services in your home community.

Don’t let COVID-19 go home with you

• Saskatchewan continues to monitor COVID-19 trends throughout the state, but public health urges all residents to ensure that intra-state and interstate travel is for essential purposes only. I am.
• If you need to travel between states, be aware of the risk of infection in those jurisdictions and the public health orders in force there and will be tested shortly after returning home.
