General

From March, 2020 through June the Government of British Columbia usually provided COVID-19 updates in live briefings. All were delivered by Minister of Health Adrian Dix (@adriandix) and the Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry. Throughout, BC did not report data on Sundays, and instead Monday's briefing included data from both weekend days. Since June, 2020, briefings are held only several days a week. Online data is updated on weekdays only. Briefings are live-streamed on YouTube, Facebook and by major news networks. They are usually at 15:00 PST.
