After months of work and collaborative efforts of many in BC, the BCCDC Foundation for Public Health is proud and excited to be able to introduce a new, interactive dashboard of the survey results that puts the data in the hands of all British Columbians!
Your story, our future
This dashboard shows results from the BC COVID-19 SPEAK survey in an interactive tool. The survey asked BC residents about their experience, knowledge and actions early in the COVID-19 pandemic. The results look at risk perception as well as any broader impacts of COVID-19. This includes social, economic, physical health, mental wellness and community resiliency.
Almost 400,000 British Columbians participated in the survey from May 12 to May 31, 2020. Results are available across BC and at regional levels. Thank you to everyone who participated in the survey! Above all, thank you for your continued efforts to help protect yourself and all British Columbians during COVID-19.

Nominations selected for an award were contacted in March 2020 and, with their permission, their stories will be subsequently published on this website as well as other Merck channels, including social media.
