My dear Virgin Islanders, Belongers and residents, I wish all of you God’s blessings.
In my address of 19 May, 2020, I promised to provide an update on your Government’s ongoing economic response as we continue to live and work in the face of COVID-19—the New Regular.
Today, I greet you in the wonderful name of the Great God of the Universe who continues to have mercy on us as a Territory.
On Monday, April 27 we lifted the 24hour 14-day curfew and we entered the ‘New Regular’—the new way of life living and working with COVID-19 in the British Virgin Islands.
We all stepped out in Faith, trusting in God, under a new curfew from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 P.M. daily, and this would be for the next 14 days until May 10, 2020.
