And while the PM and the BTB have their eyes on that July re-opening, Director of Health Services Dr. Marvin Manzanero wouldn't make a commitment to that date. Speaking on Ask the Experts this afternoon, he said the situation remains fluid:

Dr. Marvin Manzanero - Director of Health Services
"We'll see how that works out between now and July. For example, there is a major fair down west in July. They have ask me for my opinion on the matter, that's 2 months from now. I don't know, I can't tell what's going to happen in July. That's like too far away. As harsh as it may seem we are still planning on a weekly basis although I have gone back to the technical advisor and ask them to develop their calendar for the month of May, but it still can change as you move along. Remember any single case that you detect puts you back at the drawing board, so we could come back here on Monday and say we are clear and on Tuesday you come with a case - whatever you said on Monday is gone. You start back again on Tuesday."
