Dr. Deena Hinshaw is experiencing mild symptoms consistent with the common cold, the Alberta government said Monday in a news release.
Though her symptoms do not appear to be consistent with COVID-19, Hinshaw has been tested and is now waiting for results.
“Dr. Hinshaw continues to perform all of her important duties while self-isolating,” the news release said.
On Sunday, flanked by Premier Jason Kenney and three cabinet members, Hinshaw announced the total number of cases in Alberta had risen to 56, an increase of 17 from the day before.
Classes at all K-12 schools in Alberta have been cancelled and child-care centres have been closed indefinitely.
