In the first briefing of the New Year, Provincial Health Officer Dr. Bonnie Henry gave an outlook on how the vaccine will roll-out this year.
She said that starts with around one hundred and 50 thousand people getting it from now until February.
Dr. Henry is also reminding British Columbians that now is the most important time to follow provincial health guidelines, monitor yourself for systems and stay cautious as vaccines and our own actions will help limit transmission.
