Which Areas Will Be Put On Lockdown?
posted (August 5, 2020)
So with significant cases popping up in Orange Walk, San Pedro and Corozal - will the government institute lockdowns? Or, will it at least lock down San Pedro?

That matter is now under consideration:

Rt. Hon. Dean Barrow, Prime Minister
"Together with the minister of health, of course the minister of education, the deputy prime minister and if possible, the rest of the cabinet, if not, because we want to move quickly, the attorney general clearly who is responsible for the drafting, we will meet and try as well to consult with members of the national oversight committee before we present you with the raft of legal measures that will be promulgated to try and deal with the situation but I am saying that it is clear to me already that Corozal does not fall into quite the same category as Orange Walk and Ambergris Caye."
