BC residents will soon require proof of COVID-19 vaccination for multiple activities and businesses including restaurants, gyms, concerts and sports games.
A new order from provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry will require those age 12 and up to provide proof of a first dose of vaccine by September 13th and both doses by October 24th to access those and other settings.
Henry says there won’t be any exemptions to the policy because it’s a temporary measure to get the province through a risky period, and the events are optional.
She says it will help businesses stay open through the fall and give people the confidence knowing that others are protected around them.
