Canada may have suspended flights from India over COVID-19 concerns, but the BC Centre for Disease Control is still catching up to the infections.

Eight flights from Delhi to Vancouver between April 16th and April 21st had passengers with COVID infections.

The centre says multiple rows were affected in several of the flights.

The federal government suspended direct flights from India and Pakistan for a month as cases surge in those countries.

The report, prepared by the University of Calgary’s School of Public Policy, estimates the transition could cost at least $50 billion, with the upper-end estimate reaching $170 billion.
