CARIBBEAN ROUNDUP
gering a reversal by the world health
governing body.
Suriname
Suriname Minister of Health, Amar
Ramadhin has advised residents that a
lockdown is imminent, with COVID-19
cases soaring in the last month, even
as he announced stricter measures
that included closure of the national
borders.
Suriname has recorded
7,246 confirmed
cases since the virus
was detected in the
country on March 13,
2020, Of those who tested positive, 152
have died, with 28 of those fatalities in
January alone, making it the deadliest
since the start of the pandemic.
The health minister said the number
of cases has been climbing since the end
of December 2020, with the number of
new daily infections reaching an average
of 80 daily.
He blamed the drastic increase on
large groups not complying with the
COVID-19 protocols during the Christmas
and New Year’s celebrations.
As a result, Ramadhin said a lockdown
is imminent and until that happens
stricter measures have been
implemented.
He said all regular passenger flights
to countries including the Netherlands,
Brazil, Guyana and French Guiana will
be discontinued immediately.
National borders have been closed
and security border with French Guiana
is being stepped up.
Trinidad
Caribbean Airlines Limited (CAL)
has announced from last week before
passengers are allowed to enter the
plane to fly to the United States, they
will have to present a negative COVDD-
19 test that is no older than three days
before the flight.
A release from CAL said effective January
26, 2020, all passengers
traveling to the
USA, will be required
to present results of a
negative Covid-19 test
to travel.
CAL said it will be mandatory to
have a Covid-19 test no older than three
days before the flight departure date to
the United States.
It said travelers must provide written
documentation of their laboratory
test result (paper of electronic) to the
airline at check-in.
According to the airline, based on
the instructions issued by the Public
Health Authorities, passengers who do
not provide documentation of a negative
COVID-19 test result will not be
allowed to travel.
