I am not aware of any help they received from any country except maybe Cuba and in that case the medical folks do not speak English leading to possible problems with medications. The UK is no position to offer help (except for military/coast guard help). I suspect the BVI is low on usable finances. How can it keep going with no tourism and little financial offerings. And there is no other source of income. Selling ganja and vegetables will do little. Maybe they could sell citizenship to the country with some income.

Now they are spending something like 50k per day for some cargo ships. You would think the owners of these cargo ships would offer them to the government at no charge.to help the country in their time of need in controlling the border, which they should have done for years.. UK could do this gratis.
