St. Patrick's Day won't be a party in Vancouver, all bars and restaurants in the city to close

BY , Mar 17, 2020 9:17 PM - REPORT AN ERROR

St. Patrick's Day won't be a party in Vancouver as health authorities have asked all bars and restaurants in the city to close their doors for the day.

The request from the Vancouver Health Authority came just hours after the city's mayor said the shutdown would help efforts to control COVID-19 by keeping people away from packed St. Patrick's Day events.

Gatherings of more than 50 people are now banned in British Columbia.

The province's latest official count of confirmed cases of the new coronavirus is 103, including four deaths and six patients under care in hospital.
