During a press conference organized yesterday afternoon, the secretary general of the prefecture announced the maintenance of the curfew until Saturday morning. It is however slightly modified since it is in force from 20 p.m. to 3 a.m. and no longer until 6 a.m. The device will end at 3 a.m. on Saturday.
The latest health bulletin from Public Health France reports 105 new cases for the period from May 24 to 30. Since May 20, 7 people have died (including 4 last week) and 11 medical evacuations to the CH in Guadeloupe have been carried out. Today, 10 people are hospitalized at Louis Constant Fleming Hospital.
Because of these elements, the Prefect of Saint-Barthélemy and Saint-Martin, Serge Gouteyron has decided to extend the curfew until Friday, June 11 inclusive. Only people with a certificate and additional supporting documents will be allowed to travel during this period. Gendarmerie checks will be carried out.
The latest data from Public Health France for the week of May 31 to June 6, already show a slight drop in cases of Covid-19 contamination. However, the risk of saturation of the hospital system and the significant occupation of the Covid unit of the hospital, require that the measures in force since Sunday, May 30, be extended.
Consequently, all establishments open to the public will have to close at 20 p.m. and gatherings of people are prohibited until Friday 11 June inclusive.
The Prefect recalls that the mobilization of all is necessary to fight against the epidemic, by respecting barrier gestures, social distancing, wearing a mask and limiting gatherings of people.
