COVID-19 in Sask.: 10 more deaths, another hospitalizations record

Saskatchewan has recorded one of its worst days in the COVID-19 pandemic, breaking multiple pandemic-related records on Tuesday. 

The province reported an increase of 22 new hospitalizations, meaning there are now 311 people with COVID-19 in Saskatchewan's hospitals. That's the first time that more than 300 people have been hospitalized in the province. 

The province also posted a record number of people in the province's intensive care units (ICU). That figure has reached 65 as of Tuesday. 

Even more concerning is a piece of information contained in the hospitalizations tab of Saskatchewan's COVID-19 dashboard. Six of the province's health zones no longer have any available ICU beds. 

The zones include the far northwest, far north central, far northeast, northwest, central west and southeast. 

The province reported 10 more COVID-19-related deaths on Tuesday.

Since the beginning of the pandemic, 682 people in the province are known to have died of COVID-19.
