British Columbia's provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry announced on Saturday the province's first region-specific order regarding banning some social gatherings and indoor activities as cases surge in the Vancouver Coastal Health and Fraser Health regions.

Effective 10:00 pm Saturday, residents are banned from visiting each others’ private homes for two weeks. Weddings and funerals are permitted, but only with immediate family members.

Under the new order, travel for sport is also banned in or out of the region.

Indoor group physical activities such as spin classes, yoga and group fitness are also banned until they have updated COVID-19 safety plans approved by their regional medical health officer.

The order will be in place for two weeks, starting Saturday, and ending Nov. 23 at 12:00 pm.

The order came as Henry announced another 567 new cases of the virus, the second-highest the province has ever recorded in a single day.
