The three cases are unrelated to each other, and also unrelated to the previous cluster of cases announced last month.

There are currently 1,451 people on site and 27 people in isolation.

“We require people to isolate if they show any symptoms as described by the BCCDC, no matter how mild,” said BC Hydro on its daily COVID-19 update.

“These symptoms include sneezing, sore throat, muscle aches, headaches, cough fever or difficulty breathing.”

To date, there have been 15 cases of the virus since March, with five considered active.
