VANCOUVER -- As the number of people battling COVID-19 in B.C. hospitals continues to grow at an alarming rate, officials are urging the public to support exhausted health-care workers by staying on their best behaviour. Keeping healthy and following all existing COVID-19 restrictions are the best ways to ease the "immense" and growing pressure on doctors, nurses and others in the health-care system, Dr. Bonnie Henry said Thursday. "Last year, many people stood at their doors and windows clapping and cheering for our frontline health-care workers. We knew they were there for us and we wanted to show our appreciation," Henry said.
