- Ā Ā Ā Ā Boyce Gyro Beach Lodge (3519 Lakeshore Rd., Kelowna) on July 1.Ā
IH said they are reaching out directly to individuals who have been exposed through contact tracing measures.
Due to the spike in cases and the call out for locals and visitors alike to monitor their health, there has been a high volume of calls and unscheduled visits at local testing centres.
Interior Health said they have the capacity to test individuals who need it, but remind the public that testing is not required for those who do not have symptoms.
For those who haveĀ symptoms and require testing, call ahead to book an appointment. Ā IH assessment/testing sites do not provide testing on a drop-in basis.
