PRINCE GEORGE — The number of Covid-19 cases are up slightly today to 420 in B.C., including 31 up north.

Just over 4500 active cases of the virus, with 319 people hospitalized, 107 of whom are in critical or intensive care.

Six new deaths and over 2.7 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines have been administered.

As we head into the long weekend, the province is urging British Columbians to stick to Covid-19 guidelines so we can have the summer we all want to have.

“This long weekend is the time to stick with all of the public health orders and travel restrictions – staying small, staying local and getting registered for your vaccine if you have not already done so,” says Provincial Health Officer. Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix.
