There were more than 75 new confirmed cases of COVID-19 reported in the last three updates from the province: 85 on Wednesday, 78 on Thursday, and 84 on Friday — the largest single-day increases since April, when 95 new cases were identified.
Dr. Bonnie Henry said Thursday that people between the ages of 20 and 29 now make up the group seeing the largest increase of infections, while Health Minister Adrian Dix called on those planning on hosting large events this weekend to expect a visit from bylaw officers to ensure the 50-person limits are being followed.
