SK case and mortality data currently ends on 2022-02-06, owing to the end of daily data reporting. However, manually transcribed data from the weekly data reports could be added. This data source has already been integrated into the legacy dataset, Covid19Canada.

We also might be able to support automated extraction using Tabula or a related tool. (Note that the very first weekly epidemiology report uses image tables, but all subsequently reports have used proper text tables.)

Edit: The report released 2022-03-03 has image tables.
