All bars and clubs are to continue to close at 11:00 pm during the Carnival days of August 1, 2, and 3.<\/p>\n

Strict enforcement is to follow by the Police and Military to ensure that no illegal gatherings take place during the Carnival period, but certainly none on the August 1, 2, and 3 weekend.<\/p>

Meantime, the Cabinet encourages all to take the vaccine in order to protect one\u2019s family, one\u2019s business and the nation.<\/p>\n

Any spike in transmission could result in Antigua and Barbuda being removed from the green light accorded by the U.K., and from the safe Category 1 in which the USA has moved the state.<\/p>\n

The Cabinet reminds that those who disobey the strict protocol rules to include social distancing, wearing of face masks properly, and who fail to sanitize are subject to a fine of $500.<\/p>
