    Theresa Kliem · CBC News · Posted: Jan 23, 2022 3:07 PM CT | Last Updated: 41 minutes ago

    COVID-19 hospital numbers continue to climb in Saskatchewan as the contagious Omicron variant spreads across the province.

    The number of people in hospital has climbed from 244 yesterday to 252 on Sunday, according to the daily update on the province's online dashboard.

    26 of the hospital cases reported today are in intensive care, the same as announced on Saturday.

    This month the province started tracking hospitalizations as a key indicator of COVID-19 in Saskatchewan, breaking down how hospitalized people contracted the virus.

    Of the 226 inpatient hospitalizations, excluding people in ICU, 92 patients are receiving health care due to a COVID-19-related illness, 98 are incidental cases — meaning they were admitted for something else, then diagnosed with COVID — and 36 have not yet been determined, according to the province's dashboard on Sunday.

    Of the 24 ICU patients, 19 are under intensive care for a COVID-19-related illness while four are considered incidental infections and one case is undetermined...

    ...Out of all 252 hospital patients with the illness, over 36 per cent were not fully vaccinated, according to the province's dashboard...

                COVID-19 in Sask.: 13 more residents in hospital, 2 deaths reported
                328 people with COVID-19 are in hospitals, 35 in intensive care

                Thursday's COVID-19 update in Saskatchewan showed hospitalizations continued to trend upward in the province.

                Another 13 people with COVID-19 were in hospital, bringing that total to 328.

                Of them, 293 are in inpatient care; 120 of those were due to a COVID-19 related illness, while 140 were incidental COVID-19 infections and 33 cases were not yet determined.

                There were 35 people in ICU; 26 are due to a COVID-19 related illness, while six are there for incidental COVID-19 infections. Three people were in the pediatric intensive care unit/neonatal intensive care unit; two for COVID-19 related illness, while one is for an incidental COVID-19 infection.

                There were 1,273 new confirmed cases of COVID-19, however, the case numbers are considered an undercount because they include only the results from PCR tests and not the results from rapid tests that many people take at home.

                Some 3,586 PCR tests were recorded, with the provincial test positivity rate remaining at 34 cent. ..

                        COVID-19 in Sask.: 349 hospitalizations, nearing record high
                        There was one new death in the province, aged 80 or older
                        CBC News · Posted: Jan 30, 2022 2:47 PM CT | Last Updated: 1 hour ago

                        Hospitalizations in the province rose by nine on Sunday, totalling 349, and drawing nearer to the highest number of people hospitalized with COVID-19 in Saskatchewan.

                        The current Omicron-driven fifth wave of the pandemic has shattered active and new daily case records in Saskatchewan, despite the government recommending asymptomatic people who may be positive for the virus forgo PCR testing. That excludes them from being included in the provincial case numbers.

                        Now, COVID-19 hospitalizations are inching closer to exceeding the pandemic high: 356 people were hospitalized with the virus on Oct. 6. At that time, there were 76 people in intensive care and the province hadn't begun sending residents to Ontario for out of patient care.

                        Of the 349 patients in hospital, 110 (or about 31.5 per cent) were not fully vaccinated.

                        Saskatchewan also documented one new death who was aged 80 or older, according to its COVID-19 dashboard. It adds to the now 990 deaths attributed to the virus since the pandemic started.

                        There are now 12,720 active cases, 167 more than Saturday and a little more than 10,000 higher than a month ago on Dec. 30. However, the active case count does not include cases confirmed by self-administered rapid tests...
