There have been some glimmers of hope.
Active cases and monitored people have decreased in numbers for several consecutive days now. Also, B.C. provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry had stated during her presentation on April 19 that there are signs that B.C.’s curve has slowly begun to bend.
The primary area of concern, however, remains hospitalized cases, which continues to rise and is approaching 500 cases.
The number of deaths was also high today.
There are also 11 flights with exposures and three businesses temporarily closed by health authorities due to COVID-19.
Schuck and the board of Eastside Boxing deny the allegations. The recent events have been precipitated by the malicious actions of a select few who in the wake of failed attempts to further their own interests are attempting to destroy a gym with a longstanding history of excellence, perseverance, diversity and generosity, they responded in a 31-page written statement emailed to CBC News .
The document includes nearly 50 statements of support for Schuck and the club from male and female members, coaches and staff.
Schuck and the club s board have labelled Jaime Ward-Yassin, a former manager, coach and board member, as the ringleader behind the accusations. Ward-Yassin, a former pro boxer, was the head of the women s programs at Eastside Boxing. She is also Schuck s ex-wife.
