With Omicron cases on the rise in the province, Moe added that officials are watching the situation 'very closely.'
In a video posted to his Twitter page on Thursday, Premier Scott Moe said COVID-19 gathering restrictions and other measures have not been “ruled out” for next week.
With Omicron cases on the rise in the province, Moe added that officials are watching the situation “very closely.”
“We should be concerned about Omicron, but not panicked,” Moe said towards the end of the video.
“Case counts are definitely rising and they will continue to rise in the days ahead.”
He added that serious cases and hospitalizations “remain low and manageable.”
“We do not want to go back to shutting down activities, restricting businesses in our communities and taking away your personal freedoms.”
Moe said there are some actions residents can take to protect themselves and others and keep the pressure off the health-care system.
