These people just don't get it. Watch this curfew/lockdown get extended because people just won't listen and follow rules.

And they are worried about the tourists that supports most of them coming back on island. Ha. Unfortunately a lot of them (as in the USA) don’t understand or care. Social distance , take precautions etc. Stupid people do stupid things!

Agreed Scuba! There always seems to be some knuckleheads out there that just won't conform, ultimately screwing things up for everyone else. It's just stupidity and selfishness!

Covid-19 Update - St. Maarten

Govt. to reevaluate length of lockdown after impromptu, curfew breaking jou'vert jams

After the impromptu, curfew breaking jou'vert jams in Dutch Quarter and Fort Willem this morning, government will now reevaluate the length of the lockdown.

"With your behaviour, with your lack of discipline, and lack of thinking about the other man, now we will have to reevaluate whether this lockdown will have to continue even longer." - St. Maarten Prime Minister Silveria Jacobs

Police is investigating the jou'vert revelry. Fines and jail time are pending for revelers and promoters of the festivities.

The morning of April 27, King's Day, is traditionally when the jou'vert jam around Philipsburg is held. This year, due to Covid-19 this and all other carnival festivities were cancelled and the country went into lockdown.
