B.C. provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says there's clear evidence that measures being taken to fight the spread of COVID-19 are working.

Over the past two days, 50 people have tested positive for the coronavirus, bringing the total to 1,998.

Three more people have died, raising the provincial toll to 103.

Henry says the rate of transmission has slowed and they're finding more links to outbreaks with increased surveillance, which means it's getting closer to the time to start easing restrictions.
