In a response to questions from CBC about COVID-19 outbreak declarations at acute care and long term care facilities, the B.C. ministry of health confirmed that in some cases an outbreak is no longer reported even when there is a spike in cases. Instead, “enhanced measures” are put in place without alerting the public.
