Last day of provincewide COVID-19 restrictions, but BC's top doctor has hinted there may be an extension of the controls

Today's the day that provincewide COVID-19 restrictions are supposed to be lifted, but BC's top doctor has hinted there may be an extension of the controls.

Dr. Bonnie Henry said last week that it was clear transmissions were not dropping as health officials had hoped.

The daily case counts ranged from near 600 to over 800 last week, while the death toll didn't go below 11 each day.

Dr. Henry even introduced more restrictions late last week on adult sports and indoor fitness classes.
