B.C. announces 6 deaths from COVID-19, 31 new casesSix people in British Columbia died of COVID-19 over the weekend, while health officials discovered 31 new cases of the virus, authorities announced Monday. Bunch of lies. BC’s numbers don’t make sense. They also haven.t been testing enough. Lots of ppl illegally crossing border into BC & cld bring virus with them not knowingly. Please, until the border opens, remain in the States. We still care about you, but we don’t want more cases & casualties. Thank you. Twice the amount of seniors killed in BC than the rest of the world. Now almost twice as many overdose deaths than before. Someone has to be responsible for all of the wrongful deaths.
