Five more B.C. flights to and from international and domestic cities have been added to a COVID-19 exposure list.
The addition, announced Tuesday evening, means an individual who later tested positive for COVID-19 was on board. In some cases, row information is also provided.
The five latest flights include:
• Aug 12: Air India 1143, Delhi to Vancouver
• Aug 14: WestJet 196, Victoria to Calgary
• Aug 17: Air Canada 106, Vancouver to Toronto, Row 20 to 26
• Aug 18: Air Canada 007, Vancouver to Hong Kong, Row 21 to 27
• Aug 21: KLM 681, Amsterdam to Vancouver
Those who were on the flights, particularly those in the affected rows, should monitor for symptoms and contact a health-care professional at the first onset of symptoms and self-isolate immediately.
By law, anyone arriving in B.C. from outside Canada is required to self-quarantine and monitor for symptoms over a period of 14 days from their arrival.
