 <\/p>\n

One of the cases is that of an Antiguan national who had been in Barbados for six months and returned to Antigua. This individual was placed in quarantine upon arrival and has since been placed in isolation following the positive result.<\/p>

 <\/p>\n

This type of situation is now considered to be a regional phenomenon and is expected since Caribbean countries are reopening there borders allowing for intraregional travel.<\/p>
