She said contact tracing is underway, but deferred further questions to the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA).
A spokesperson for the SHA said it in a statement to Global News that it “does not disclose specific case locations.”
“Those impacted e.g., contacts would be informed as a normal part of public health response, and those not contacted by public health can rest assured that an assessment has been conducted,” said the SHA.
Félix le Chat daycare is attached to the elementary school École Canadienne Française. A spokesperson for the Ministry of Health says any contingency plans related to the positive case would have to come from the school division.
