Alberta expands social gathering limit to all areas under COVID-19 Watch
With case numbers soaring, Alberta is expanding the 15-person limit for social gatherings to include all areas of the province currently under a COVID-19 Watch.
Premier Jason Kenney made the announcement during a media conference Thursday afternoon.
Kenney said Alberta’s approach has served Albertans well to this point, but, “To be blunt, all that we have accomplished together is now at risk.”
This includes the city of Red Deer where a COVID-19 Watch has been in effect since Tuesday.
