LATEST UPDATES
3 p.m. – Health officials are set to share latest figures on COVID-19 in B.C.
Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix will update the number of COVID-19 cases, deaths and recoveries across the province.
12 a.m. – Cases double in Coast Salish First Nations community
Tla’amin Nation chief Clint Williams will meet officials on Wednesday and decide whether to delay an election this Saturday, as COVID-19 numbers double and heavy smoke tests its members.
The Tla’amin Nation outbreak is the second largest of any Indigenous community in B.C., after the 26-case Haida Gwaii outbreak that was declared over at the end of August.
Williams said heavy smoke due to wildfires raging in Washington, Oregon and California was making it harder on sick band members who had tested positive and were recovering at home.
There were four cases reported last Tuesday, when a state of emergency was declared and a stay-in-place order issued.
On Friday there were 10 cases, and according to Williams there were 20 confirmed cases on Sunday. At least two of those cases have been hospitalized.
12 a.m. – Second B.C. school reports COVID-19 exposure
Parents at Ecole Panorama Ridge Secondary in Surrey have learned that a person who attended the school last Tuesday was COVID-19 positive.
On Friday, Surrey School Board superintendent Jordan Tinney sent an email to parents saying there were no students in the school on that day and that health authority contact tracing was underway. Tinney reported the contact was deemed low risk.
Last Monday, the head of a West Vancouver private school sent a letter to parents saying there had been an exposure at a Grade 9 day camp and that those at risk were in isolation. The school was not closed as the exposure had occurred off campus.
Full-time return to class for public secondary students starts today, with elementary students in their second week.
