FORT ST. JOHN — BC Hydro is reporting three positive COVID-19 cases related to people working on the Site C project.

BC Hydro says that health officials have confirmed that none of the cases originated at the site.

“The first worker has not been to site since being exposed and testing positive,” says BC Hydro in a statement.

“The second worker returned to work for two days last week after being exposed off site and later tested positive upon returning home. Both workers are currently isolating at home.”

BC Hydro says a third worker developed symptoms two days after arriving at site last week and subsequently tested positive. This case is unrelated to the other two cases and this third worker remains isolated at camp under the care of the on-site medical clinic.
