Fully vaccinated in Sask. don't have to self-isolate after close contact with COVID case - larongeNOW

The provincial government announced during a news conference Tuesday that anyone in Saskatchewan who has had both of their COVID-19 doses, and has safely passed the two-week mark afterwards, doesn’t have to quarantine if they’re identified as a close contact of someone who comes down with the virus.

Saskatchewan Health Authority CEO Scott Livingstone says the SHA has got everyone’s vaccination records, including who has had their COVID-19 shots.

“There is a provincial computer system called Panorama which everyone who’s been vaccinated has a record of how many doses, what vaccine they receive and it’s what our public health resources use, both to contact trace and to follow up,” Livingstone said.

“Generally when Public Health engages with a family, it’s not an issue of providing incomplete information.
