Four new COVID-19 cases, no new deaths
The province is reporting just four new cases of COVID-19 Tuesday (June 2), and no new deaths.
Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry says the new cases were all seen in the Fraser Health region. That region is also home to two new community outbreaks, both in office environments. Henry said the outbreaks are both quite small.
B.C. has now seen 2,601 test positive cases of COVID-19 since the pandemic began. Here is where they are located:

There are a total of 207 active cases in B.C. Thirty-one of those people are in hospital, including eight in critical or intensive care.
The total number of people considered fully recovered is 2,229, or 86 per cent of all test positive cases.
