B.C. conducted 10,899 tests in a 24-hour period, according to provincial health officer Dr. Bonnie Henry.

After a slight uptick a day earlier, the number of active cases continued the downward trend the province has shown for more than a week, dropping to 1,261.

About 3,093 people remained in self-isolation due to possible exposure, Henry said.

Sixty-nine people were hospitalized with the disease. Nineteen of them are in critical or intensive care.
