The Chief Medical Health Officer (MHO) of Interior Health (IH) is ordering all fitness centres, gyms, yoga studios, or similar personal training facilities, indoors or outdoors, to close as of April 2.
“The Chief MHO has determined that gatherings of people at these facilities constitute close personal contact, which promotes the transmission and increased spread of COVID-19. Fitness centres and gyms are encouraged to adopt virtual training and support as an alternative to gatherings at facilities,” Interior Health stated in a press release.
The Order expires on May 30, 2020, and is subject to revision, cancellation, or extension by Interior Health’s MHO.
Additional information on COVID-19 is also available on the IH Website.
