If you're like us and can't help but wonder if you've been anywhere recently exposed to COVID-19 in B.C., then this website has got you covered.

On Thursday, June 23, Fraser Health in B.C. went live with a new website that lists out possible areas of COVID-19 exposure currently happening in the region, where authorities weren't able to contact or identify all the people affected.

If you have been identified as a COVID-19 case or close contact, be assured that Fraser Health’s public health team will contact you directly and provide further instruction.


Fraser Health

The Fraser Health region covers part of central B.C., including areas of Metro Vancouver and cities like Burnaby, Surrey, Abbotsford, Coquitlam, and more.

Vancouver Coastal Health also has a similar webpage up for their area, on which four exposures are currently listed.

Although Fraser Health believes the exposures listed on their site to be "low risk," anyone who has been to mentioned locations at the specified times is asked to self-monitor for symptoms.
