VANCOUVER -- Three flights from Toronto to Vancouver and one from Toronto to Victoria have been added to the BC Centre for Disease Control's list of COVID-19 exposures.
The flights in question happened between Sept. 23 and 28, and the BCCDC added them to its online list Friday evening.
The flights added are:
- Sept. 23: Air Canada flight 195 from Toronto to Victoria (rows 29 to 32)
- Sept. 26: Air Canada flight 115 from Toronto to Vancouver (rows 23 to 27)
- Sept. 27: WestJet flight 725 from Toronto to Vancouver (rows 4 to 10)
- Sept. 28: Air Canada flight 127 from Toronto to Vancouver (rows 37 to 41)
Passengers seated in the affected rows are considered to be at greater risk of contracting COVID-19 because of their proximity to a confirmed case.
Anyone who was on any of the flights should self-monitor for symptoms of the coronavirus and self-isolate and seek testing if any develop.
More than 60 flights involving B.C. airports in September have had cases of COVID-19 confirmed on board.
Health officials in B.C. no longer directly contact people who were seated near someone with a confirmed case of COVID-19. Instead, health authorities post notices online about flights with confirmed cases.
