The last health bulletin dated August 26 shows 139 active cases in Saint-Martin for a total of confirmed cases of 198 and 8 in Saint-Barthélemy, for a total of confirmed cases of 17. Sint Maarten lists 248 active cases for a total of 444 confirmed cases.

11 people are hospitalized at the Louis Constant Fleming Hospital Center and 4 were transferred to the intensive care unit of the CHU de Guadeloupe. 7 Dutch residents are hospitalized in Sint Maarten. 6 deaths are to be deplored in part French and 17 in part Dutch.

The islands of Saint-Barthélemy and Saint-Martin have been classified as an active circulation zone for the virus, as have Guadeloupe and Martinique.

This inclusion in Annex 2 of the decree of July 10, 2020, authorizes the Delegate Prefect of Saint-Barthélemy and Saint-Martin to take new measures to fight against the spread of the virus. No new additional measure is envisaged for the moment. Those already taken remain in force:

• declaration to the Prefecture of gatherings of more than 10 people;

• bars and restaurants close at midnight;

• wearing a mask is compulsory in all shops;

• limitation of entry conditions by sea; temporary access controls to

Saint-Martin.

Journeys between the French islands are not subject to the presentation of a negative PCR test of less than 72 hours.
