B.C. measures appear to have slowed the increase in COVID-16: health officer Mar 27, 2020 12:50 PM

VICTORIA — British Columbia’s provincial health officer says she’s starting to see “glimmers of hope” in the fight against COVID-19 with an apparent flattening in the number of cases.

The province released it’s “worst-case scenario” data today that it will use for planning purposes, while cautioning the data is not a prediction.

Current figures show B.C. is closer to following the trajectory of South Korea, and Dr. Bonnie Henry says social distancing measures are beginning to have a positive impact.

Henry says the increase in the number of COVID-19 cases has levelled off a bit and that needs to continue and to go down.
