EDMONTON, AB – Alberta Health Services (AHS) has confirmed another high caseload for COVID-19.

Across the province, 727 positive tests were identified over the past 24 hours.

Another six Albertans died from COVID, meaning it has now claimed the lives of 363 people.

As LNN reported on Friday, the province is restricting gatherings in all communities on the COVID watch list, including banquets and award ceremonies, wedding or funeral receptions, luncheons or potlucks, parties, and other private or social gatherings.
