BC health officials announced only one new confirmed case of COVID-19 today, for a total of 2,632 throughout the province. One case from yesterday’s total was removed due to a data correction.
One more person has died of reasons related to the virus. There were no new health-care facility outbreaks and the outbreak at the Berkley Care Centre has been declared over. In total, five long-term care or assisted-living facilities continue to have active outbreaks.
There were no new community outbreaks. Public health teams are providing support for the eight ongoing community outbreaks.
As recent modelling has shown us, we can safely reopen many businesses, return to in-class learning and gradually increase our social interactions. This must be done cautiously in order to avoid a resurgence in cases.
The key is to minimize, manage and modify: minimize the number of new cases and close contacts, manage clusters and outbreaks with rapid contact tracing by public health teams and modify the measures we are all following, as needed.
