VANCOUVER -- Eleven more people have died from COVID-19 in B.C. and there are 45 new positive cases, health officials announced Monday.

Health Minister Adrian Dix and provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry's afternoon update covered two days' worth of COVID-19 case numbers as there was no update given Sunday. From Saturday to Sunday, 25 people tested positive, while over the past 24 hours, 20 people tested positive.

That brings the province's total number of cases up to 1,490.

Henry announced 11 additional deaths, which means 69 have died from the novel coronavirus in the province. Monday's update marked the most deaths Henry has reported in a single briefing, but that number covered a two-day span.

Henry also said 254 people associated with long-term care homes have tested positive for the virus.

VANCOUVER -- Four more people have died from COVID-19 in British Columbia, health officials announced Thursday, bringing the death toll from the coronavirus in the province to 94.

They also announced 29 new test-positive cases of the virus and several new outbreaks, including one at a long-term care facility in the Interior, two in acute care units at Lower Mainland hospitals, and another one at a poultry processing facility in Coquitlam.

Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry and Health Minister Adrian Dix announced the new cases and outbreaks at their daily briefing on the virus Thursday. The update comes after the pair announced 71 new cases of the virus on Wednesday - the largest single-day surge since March.

The number of new cases announced Thursday is more in line with where it had been on Monday and Tuesday, when the province announced fewer than 30 new cases confirmed through testing over the preceding 24-hour periods.

B.C. reports 95 new cases of COVID-19 as testing expands
Province reaches 100 deaths as cases spike related to outbreaks in federal institution and a poultry plant
Maryse Zeidler ? CBC News ? Posted: Apr 25, 2020 12:00 PM PT | Last Updated: 31 minutes ago

Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says there are 95 new cases of COVID-19 in British Columbia, a spike that brought the total number of cases to 1,948 on Saturday.

Henry said part of the reason for the dramatic jump in cases is because of additional testing related to community outbreaks at a federal prison and a poultry processing plant.

Forty of the new cases are linked to the federally-run Mission Institution, where 106 inmates and 12 staff members have been confirmed to have contracted the virus. An inmate at the federal prison died from COVID-19 complications earlier this month...
