LIVE: B.C. health officials provide update on COVID-19 immunizations | #COVID19BC twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…
Dr. Bonnie Henry: Data shows less than 5% of COVID-19 cases in B.C. right now are among people who are fully vaccinated. 78% of cases are people who are not vaccinated + 18% of cases are one dose.
DBH: Each health authority will be offering new ways to deliver vaccines. This effort is critical for step 4 because more people are travelling to B.C. Dancing, fall fairs, unrestricted weddings will be possible if this plan is followed.
