It’s the first day with over 1,000 new cases since Oct 14 and the highest one-day increase since Oct. 1.
Alberta’s COVID-19 case count ballooned on Wednesday to its highest point since the start of October with 1,346 new cases reported.
It’s the first day with over 1,000 new cases since Oct. 14 and the highest one-day increase since Oct. 1.
Of the 522 new Omicron cases, 177 were in the Edmonton Zone and 326 were in the Calgary zone.
The Edmonton and Calgary zones are significantly bigger than the cities themselves.
Variant cases are identified through a second screening done after an initial positive test for COVID-19. The time needed for that further screening means the new Omicron cases are likely from several days ago.
