Public-health officials are asking all British Columbians to get their influenza and COVID-19 immunizations as soon as possible, as rates of respiratory illnesses are on the rise throughout the province.

Adrian Dix, Minister of Health, has issued the following statement in recognition of national nurse practitioners’ week from Nov. 13-19, 2022:

Local governments, First Nations and other organizations looking to strengthen their communities can apply for new funding to build capacity and diversify rural and remote economies in B.C.

People experiencing homelessness have additional warm and safe indoor shelter options as winter weather settles over British Columbia.

Groundbreaking data that tracks the number of people who experienced homelessness in B.C. will help government better understand the factors that contribute to homelessness, and better support people in finding stable housing and services that meet their needs.

The Province’s efforts to make it free and easier for people to get the best protection possible against influenza and COVID-19 are paying off.

Adrian Dix, Minister of Health, has issued the following statement in recognition of Health Care Assistant Day on Tuesday, Oct. 18, 2022:

The Province is kicking off B.C. ShakeOut Week with a new, comprehensive earthquake response strategy that builds on emergency preparedness capacity to increase resilience and keep people safe during major earthquakes.
