Omicron
As announced by the President tonight, the Alert Level 1 regulations will stay in place while we monitor the situation with the Omicron variant. This means we retain:
– 12-4am curfew;
– Gatherings are limited to 2000 outdoors and 750 indoors, save that for small venues, not more than 50% of the capacity of the venue;
– Limit of 100 at funerals;
– Alcohol sale regular licence conditions but no sales during curfew;
– Need to determine if existing measures are adequate.
The President calls upon those who have imposed travel bans to immediately lift them as there is no scientific justification for keeping these bans in place.
The President also urged those who have not been vaccinated to do so and for everyone to “continue washing hands and all that.” He said further limitations would only further hurt the economy.
