Eight of the 10 new cases are known to be related to international travel, with those testing positive having returned from Las Vegas, Switzerland, Spain and Pakistan, as well as a dental conference in Vancouver.

The cause of the final two cases are not yet known. Hinshaw says the province is investigating to determine whether those cases were transmitted within the community.

Of the 10 new cases, six are in the Calgary zone and four are in the Edmonton zone. In total, there are 25 cases in the Calgary zone.

More than 7,100 tests for COVID-19 have been completed in Alberta so far, meaning that only about one in every 200 tests come back positive.

The most important thing that Albertans can do if they have coronavirus symptoms, including a cough or fever, or even mild cold-like symptoms, is to stay home, Hinshaw says.

One new measure the province announced Saturday is an online posting of flight information for all flights into the province where some passengers may have been exposed to COVID-19.

The online portal will include flight numbers, dates of flights and any seats on the airplane that may have been at risk of exposure. Any at-risk passengers impacted by the domestic flights are asked to isolate for 14 days until after their arrival while other passengers should monitor their symptoms as a precaution but don’t need to self-isolate.

All passengers returning from international flights are asked to self-isolate for 14 days, regardless of their symptoms.
