Alberta chief medical officer of health Dr. Deena Hinshaw will provide an update on the COVID-19 situation in the province on Thursday.

Starting on Feb. 8, Step 1 of the province’s re-opening plan will see restaurants allowed to open for dine-in service, fitness facilities will be able to offer one-on-one training and school-related sports will be offered again, with some restrictions.

Despite cases of the variants in Alberta, Premier Jason Kenney said earlier Wednesday that the plan to further ease COVID-19 restrictions is still scheduled for Feb. 8.

On Wednesday, Hinshaw confirmed an additional 259 cases of COVID-19, bringing Alberta’s total to 125,090 confirmed cases.

There were 539 people in hospital with 94 of those people in the ICU.
