British Columbia's top doctor is warning people not to let their guard down against COVID-19 as the province prepares to allow more travel this summer.
Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says the premier is expected to announce later this week when the province will move into the third phase of its restart plan, which allows overnight camping and the opening of hotels, resorts and RV parks.
She says travellers have to exercise caution, be respectful of the communities they plan to visit and take the same care they do at home to stop the spread of the novel coronavirus.
Henry says travellers need to plan before they leave, which means finding out what services are available and be as self-sufficient as possible.
B.C. has had 32 new cases of COVID-19 over the past three days, including one new death.
Henry says the province has had a total of 2,822 cases of COVID-19 with 182 of them still active.
