And if there are celebrations of any kind - they may have to be with
masks on. The PM confirmed today that even after the state of emergency
is repealed next week, there will be statuary instruments to make sure
that the requirement of wearing masks and keeping social distance
remain in place:
Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow- Prime Minister of Belize
"Under the Quarantine Act, SIs will be signed and promulgated, in this case
by the director of Health Services, requiring, as a matter of law, the
wearing of masks and the practicing of the social distance prescriptions.
So, nothing will change in that regard. You do not need a state of
emergency superstructure to provide for the policing of those core
restrictions that will remain and that will be promulgated afresh now by an
SI or perhaps a pair of SIs."
