To date, 879 people have recovered from the coronavirus.

“Of the total COVID-19 cases, 128 individuals are hospitalized and 65 of those are in intensive care. The remaining people with COVID-19 are recovering at home in self-isolation,” reads a joint statement from Minister of Health Adrian Dix and Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry.

Both are also reiterating their warning to stay home this long weekend.

“This holiday weekend is an important time for many British Columbians of diverse faiths. As we reflect on the past few weeks and the challenges we have all faced together, we are reminded of the importance of connecting and protecting our loved ones, our Elders, our health-care workers and our communities,” they say.

“This is not the time to travel, unless absolutely necessary. Stay at home and be creative with how you connect and celebrate with family and friends. Find the virtue in virtual and telephone conversations. Find togetherness without gathering.”
