BC has had no COVID-19 deaths for the fourth day in a row.

Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says she's grateful that the number of infections is trending downward.

However, she says the COVID-19 pandemic is still a major problem and will be in communities for some time.

Ten more people were diagnosed with the virus in BC for a total of 2,669.

The death toll in BC remains at 167 people.
