Provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry said Friday the province had given priority to vaccinations in the neighbourhood after an increase in cases, especially in shelters.
“We have transmission in some of our shelters, in Fraser Health in Surrey and in Vancouver in the Downtown Eastside,” Henry said. “We know in those situations people get much sicker and are more likely to end up in hospital, so we are doing some targeted immunization in those communities.”
Henry added some of the Downtown Eastside cases appear to be related at ongoing outbreaks at St. Paul’s Hospital. “People who live in the Downtown Eastside, when they get sick, they often go to St. Paul’s,” she said.
