BASSETERRE (Friday 22nd January 2021) — A household is being COVID-19 tested after a man and his two young children visited a female at a quarantine site, with the children running to hug the quarantined person. Superintendent Cromwell Henry said: “Thankfully, the test results were negative for COVID-19. The young man involved was reprimanded for his action. A meeting was held with management of the property to review and improve the security protocols to prevent a recurrence.” Section 16 of the COVID-19 Act restricts visits to places of quarantine. Persons who wish to take supplies to anyone in quarantine are required to leave properly labelled packages with the security officer on duty for delivery.
