Canada has recorded its first death from the new coronavirus, a resident at a British Columbia long-term care facility, the province’s health officer Bonnie Henry said on Monday at a press conference.
Henry said on Saturday that two residents at the Lynn Valley Care Centre in North Vancouver had tested positive after a health worker at the facility was found to have the virus. (Reporting by Anna Mehler Paperny in Toronto Writing by Allison Martell, Editing by Franklin Paul)
