VANCOUVER --
A doctor in B.C.'s Interior is warning that COVID-19 cases are on the rise at a ski resort northeast of Kamloops.
In a letter posted on the Sun Peaks Resort Municipality website Saturday, Dr. Shane Barclay writes that 15 of 40 coronavirus tests conducted at the resort on Friday came back positive.
"I suspect there are more," Barclay writes.
The doctor says the people who tested positive are "from all areas of employment and business within Sun Peaks," and he advises anyone with any symptoms in the area to get tested as soon as possible.
The resort acknowledged a rise in cases in a statement on its website Friday, though it did not specify how many people had tested positive.
