An average of 725 cases of #COVID19 announced in B.C. over the last three days, a 13% drop from the previous Monday, as the province's 3rd wave trendline continues to drop.
Encouragingly, hospitalizations down to 474, lowest since April 20.
15 new deaths.
Today's chart.
An average of 30,203 people given a vaccine shot in B.C. over the last three days, slightly down from the previous two weekends.
As we've talked about, doubling of weekly Pfizer supply kicks in NOW, and we see whether the province can do one final ramp up of distribution.
i missed the point in the metaphor where we went from the marathon to the bridge of the uss enterprise, but star trek time travel episodes always had one or two logic gaps
As we pass over the 50% mark for B.C. adults getting their first dose (probably in the next week!), there's going to be a lot of questions over when people get their 2nd.
As with so much of these timelines, comes down to supply.
Looks optimistic for June-July for most though.

Today's drop in hospitalizations is encouraging, but look at how long the plateau was in the 2nd wave — we could still be around the 500 mark for a little while yet.
But we're now three weeks past the peak of the 3rd wave, so hard to imagine it rising, thankfully.
We only have the UK and Israel to really compare against for this, and it could be likely!
But we have variants, and virtually everyone just has one shot at this point.
when you put in your census code and it's the long form
so far there is no section of the long form census asking how many parks you ranked in the last year BUT I HAVE FAITH
prior to completing a long form census i had no idea how important it was to continually affirm that i do not live on a farm or do any farming-related activities
Frustratingly, the BCCDC has had another "systems issue" today, which is code for "you're not getting much data".
So limited extra numbers today.
We had around 164 hospitalizations the last three days — down from the 60-70 peak, but still way too high.
88% of all #COVID19 hospitalizations in B.C. now are in the Lower Mainland.
In the rest of B.C., it's less than 10 a day, and going down.
For the first time since cases began declining in the 3rd wave, we saw a decent drop in active cases in Fraser Health.
We've talked about one (or even three days) worth of data not being enough to draw conclusions many times during this, but let's hope that dip continues.
