Health officials in B.C. are set to address the spike in coronavirus cases and the lack of social distancing

The Ministry of Health is aware of the incident and has announced it will hold a special news conference today at 3 p.m., likely to address a spike in cases and a lack of social distancing.

The park board doesn’t have an ability to enforce any physical-distancing recommendations, as that falls under the purview of the province, she said. Vancouver police spokeswoman Tania Visintin said police haven’t been issuing tickets for non-compliance with social distancing. She said police will focus on public safety, prevention of crimes and upholding the law.

The worst community outbreak is in Kelowna, where a group of six people from Vancouver, Kelowna and Alberta partied in the Okanagan city over the Canada Day long weekend. There are now 60 cases related to that community exposure, as the group went to several venues including a restaurant, fitness facility and beach.

I just feel sorry for all the medical teams who sadly may have to look after all these idiots. Gee they sure make Mother Nature’s job much easy to decrease the world’s population.

Hahahahaha hahahahaha commies

Dear god

Stupid millenials.

But it was fine when they were protesting....got it.

Time to arrest these kids and 💰 Fine them.

Fine em all.. about $2000.. or roughly the amount all these ppl are getting in monthly CERB payments..

if that's not a big 'fck yu' i don't know what is lol

It was a protest, not a party. fakenews

Its a protest party

And we’ll be the first ones to criticize the “stupid “ Americans for doing the same thing

So, young people are beginning to get sick and tired of the government's overreach. Good on them.

The left coast in all its glory.

this is when a siren comes in handy

I trust they are, at least, using gloryholes

They'll be fine.

The seesaw effect of mild warnings and inept attempts to clamp down. Minimum: at bars and restaurants etc e-records. Exchange of texts. Health authorities have to be visible in Richmond Centre etc and break up clusters. Fines have to be realistic. Those for cheating Americans have to start at $10,000. Idiots
