Dr. Bonnie Henry

Premier John Horgan is urging people to follow all COVID-19 public health orders over the long weekend so the province can have the summer than everyone wants to see.

Horgan says COVID-19 case counts are coming down and the burden on hospitals is easing somewhat, but all current restrictions including the ban on travel remain in place until midnight Monday.

He says the province will be announcing a new road map for reopening on Tuesday and people can expect the circuit breaker imposed to slow rising cases to be over.

However, provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says it's not going to be like flipping a light switch, more like turning the dimmer up.

B.C. reports 357 new COVID-19 cases

BC is reporting 357 new cases of COVID-19, the lowest number since mid-February.

Provincial health officer says Dr. Bonnie Henry also announced three additional deaths, bringing the total to 1,661.

The number of active cases has fallen to 4,636, which is the lowest since the beginning of March.

Health Minister Adrian Dix says the number of people in hospital is 331, down from a high of 515, but surge beds are still being used in some locations.
