COVID-19 outbreak, according to the Hutterian Safety Council (HSC).The outbreak was declared last week on two Hutterite communities in the rural municipality of Maple Creek.
Since the declaration, a press release on Monday said the unfortunate misunderstanding has taken root that positive COVID-19 tests would lead to an economic shutdown of their communities.As a result, the Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) experienced some resistance to COVID-19 testing at some Hutterite communities.“While the vast majority embraced the leadership of the SHA and HSC, a small group has resisted intervention.
