No new healthcare facilities, or seniors' homes, have been identified as having outbreaks of the virus that has caused a global pandemic.
That means that there are five facilities that have outbreaks, including the Holy Family Hospital, which was first identified yesterday.
Henry says the order for restaurants has been changed. Instead of a 50 per cent limit, every restaurant has to identify a number of capacity in collaboration with officials #COVIDー19 #COVID19BC #drbonniehenry #BC #virus #update #coronavirus #northernhealth #bcpoli@PGMatters
