Curfew Will Remain Until Expires On January 20
The current curfew — which is 12.30am to 5.00am — and “other public health measures will remain in place until they expire on January 20, 2022,” the Government noted this evening.
In releasing tonight’s test results, Minister of Health Kim Wilson said, “Additionally, we have been asked about relaxing the current regulations and requirements that are in effect, specifically regarding the curfew. To be clear the current curfew and other public health measures will remain in place until they expire on January 20, 2022.
“Lastly, I think it’s important to stress that this isn’t the first surge that we’ve navigated through. And as we did previously, we will push through and continue to evolve and meet the challenges ahead.
“What we need though is the cooperation of the community to help in curbing the spread. As basic as it may seem, the public health guidance is the best defense against the coronavirus.
“We continue to advocate vigilance, personal responsibility and compliance. The public should continue to wear a mask, wash their hands, keep physically distanced from others not in their household, and add antigen tests to their pandemic toolbox.”

Yes. What we do NOT need are the Trump supporters who continue the lie that this is nothing more than the flu.
Not sure what supporting an American politician has to do with covid in Bermuda. It has been scientifically proven that omicron is far less severe than previous variants, and very comparable to the flu in terms of symptoms. Covid has become endemic, we need to move on with our lives and learn to live with it.
“Scientifically proven”? You sure about that? Citation for peer reviewed paper please.
The data, so far, seems to suggest so but it isn’t a slam dunk. Note that anyone who belittles flu as being minor has clearly never had flu.
You’re damn right about that.
I caught the flu when I was a teenager and the year it was dubbed ‘the Hong Kong flu’.
I’ve never felt worse in my life and thought the end was near.
(And it didn’t end in 3-4 days either)
20th January folks…that is the day the government will once again extend their EMO. How can we stop that? They can’t seem to do anything properly or efficiently, enough is enough with all their power.
Ignore it.
