B.C. health officials will provide an update Monday on the respiratory illness situation in the province, with a focus on protecting children.

Health Minister Adrian Dix and provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry will provide an update at 11:30 a.m. PT.

This update comes as B.C. faces a so-called “tripledemic” of COVID-19, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and influenza.

Illness has been soaring among children, with B.C. Children’s Hospital being so busy that patients are often left waiting hours to see a doctor.
