Three persons who knew they had COVID-19 did not comply with the in-home isolation protocol of not interacting with persons from outside, or entertaining persons in their homes during their illness.
Chief Medical Officer Simone Keizer Beache made the disclosure at a press conference, on Wednesday, as she responded to a question about the status of the Ministry of Health’s investigation into the 200 cases detected among Vincentians with no recent travel history.
Keizer-Beache said her ministry has evidence that persons completed the five-day in-hotel quarantine, but later “went into the communities and might not have complied with the complete 14 days in the home”.
Previously, persons who test negative after five days quarantining in a hotel were allowed to complete a further nine days’ quarantine at home.
“We also have evidence of persons, known positive cases, who because of our protocol here, we also have stable persons who are positive … we allow them to isolate at home,” Keizer-Beache said.
“We have credible evidence that at least three individuals did not strictly stay within the isolation rules in terms of entertaining persons and in terms of interacting with persons outside of the home.
“So we are working on those links but as yet we will not conclusively say that we have identified a direct import link with all of the cases,” she said.
The chief medical officer said that her ministry allows people with a mild form of COVID-19 to isolate at home, if their home environment is deemed to be appropriate for such isolation.
As of Wednesday, St. Vincent and the Grenadines had recorded 340 cases of COVID-19, including 211 cases among nationals who had no recent travel history.
Keizer-Beache said her ministry’s investigation had identified five clusters, but was unable to link some of the cases to any of these clusters.
Although there are those of us that are far better informed about the (lack-of) severity of Covid-19 than most of our top Medical persons in SVG, we still have to comply with our laws of, for at least consideration of others that are very frightened about a virus that has a 99.96% survival rate for those very few that do get it. Even though those very few that do die probably died of something else and Covid-19 contributed.
If we travel, we still have to comply with these regulations, (maybe unless you are filthy rich or a US Democrat Politician, in which case most laws do not apply to you). What I do not understand is why us (serf) people that travel and come back and test negative and then test negative again after 5 days…Why do we still have to quarantine even longer? Makes no sense to me. What about the “two negative tests” “guideline”?
Maybe there are actually 3 different sets of laws in SVG in regard to Covid-19 Quarantine.
This may be one of the most shocking videos you will ever see concerning Covid-19. Even though it is not on Youtube (where it would not last 1 hour before being taken down), it may still be deleted, so watch it right away:

Did the squad that hunts protocol breakers fall asleep or are those 3 who broke protocol above the law.? hope they’re brought to justice.
