Maybe someone else knows how to link the government announcement. Seems to be spread from the recent funeral attended by an infected relative. Previously twenty was the threshold for more stringent measures, so it will be interesting to follow this. They don't start testing the funeral contacts until Tuesday (10 days after the event) so expect the numbers to increase. These numbers are mostly travelers and 4 community spread cases. Even more interesting is there is a hospitalization which is something we have not seen for a very long time.

Oh good Lord...I certainly hope this does not mean another lockdown is looming..... It's going to be interesting. I saw the UK military ship is back and visible in the territory yesterday and today

I still just can’t seem to wrap my head around allowing “vaccinated cruise ship passengers” in June.....but still requiring charter/Villa guests to test THREE times, even if they are vaccinated as well???? It's easy to understand when you remember that the government gets a head tax for each cruise ship passenger and that the taxi drivers who shepherd them around are all voters.

Set up mobile vaccination sites - you have the keener's who want the vaccine and will do anything to get it including standing in line and the middle that will take it if it's convenient and the deniers who won't take it at all - the only way to meet the middle group is to show up outside their place of employment or their homes. That's why we always got our shots at school - it was too much work for the parents to take us to the doctor's office.
