BC's top doctor says current provincewide health orders on gatherings will remain in place until at least the end of the month.
Dr. Bonnie Henry says just one super-spreader event or a slight increase in contacts could counteract all progress made so far to slow the spread of COVID-19, especially as two variants of the virus have been identified here.
She says restrictions must stay so there's a smooth finish as more vaccines are available.
Dr. Henry says an easing of restrictions could be considered by the end of February, to allow people to spend time with their safe six.
Health Minister Adrian Dix on Twitter:
Today Dr. Bonnie Henry and I presented updated #COVID19 modelling in BC.
