| The latest date of COVID cases by local area over the last seven days from the BC CDC |
Prince Rupert remains the regional hot spot for COVID for another week with the latest data from the BC CDC marking the significant shift in the evolution of the coronavirus in the Northwest over the last month.
With today's release of information, Prince Rupert retains its position once again as the community with the most reported cases of COVID in a one week period, a placement that that more than doubles the reports from Terrace and Haida Gwaii which are the next highest for the reports from the last seven days.
Prince Rupert's totals for the week of February 21 to 27 are listed at 73 reported positive cases of the coronavirus, an increase of 22 from the week before and a trend that is clearly heading in the wrong direction
It marks the third week in a row that Prince Rupert has outpaced the Skeena Valley City for the location with the most cases per week to report.
Also of note this week is the significant jump in the figures from Haida Gwaii which now has a COVID-19 count of 32, which is up six from last week.
The BC Centre for Disease Conrol shares data on a weekly basis culled from Local Health Authority reports, the other areas of the Northwest outside of Prince Rupert and Terrace continued to show varied levels from region to region.
Across the remainder of the Northwest, the cases reported from February 21 to 27 were as follows.
Haida Gwaii -- 32
Terrace -- 31
Upper Skeena -- 19
Smithers --11
Kitimat -- 7
Nisga'a Region -- 4
Nechako -- 3
Burns Lake -- 2
The Bella Coola Valley and Snow Country-Stikine-Telegraph Creek areas both reported no cases this week from the data review.
