There Was Never An Escape From Any Quarantine Facility

8

The Ministry of Health Wellness and the Environment wishes to state that allegations being made by leader of the Democratic National Alliance (DNA), Joanne Massiah and members of the public that a “Hispanic woman absconded/escaped from the Hawksbill Hotel where she was taken last week after violating self-quarantine” ARE COMPLETELY FALSE.

The Ministry wishes to make it abundantly clear that:
· no one quarantined at the Hawksbill Hotel fits the picture of the person being circulated
· no one has absconded/escaped from the facility;
· one individual left her room to visit another member of her family in another room at
the Hawksbill Hotel and that individual is not “armed and dangerous” as the rumors claim
· that individual who left her room did not test positive for COVID-19 as the circulation
suggests;
· the issue of persons at the facility moving between rooms has since been addressed.

The Ministry is therefore appealing to members of the public and also those of their various political persuasions to cease and desist from using social media as a means of circulating false information.  These persistent false allegations undermine the sincere efforts of the health care providers who are involved in protecting our society.

The public can be reassured that the Ministry of Health Wellness and the Environment is taking all measures to ensure that persons comply with the directions and guidelines of the Quarantine Authority that have been implemented to protect the their health and the health of our society.

  1. “The public can be reassured that the Ministry of Health Wellness and the Environment is taking all measures to ensure that persons comply with the directions and guidelines of the Quarantine Authority that have been implemented to protect the their health and the health of our society.”

    How then does he explain people who are supposed to be self-isolating at home, who only have to send in temperature readings via WhatsApp, to a nurse, without any interaction with his ministry? Who ensures that these people are not breaking quarantine?

    Dr Molwyn is giving the impression that there is some organised control system in his ministry, and nothing could be further from the truth. The Chief Mouse can’t even tell the nation how many people arrived since the country reopened the borders – and that is as badic as information gets. SMDH

  2. There are no Covid-19 cases in Antigua and Barbuda.Maybe there are Covid-20 cases.No one should take what that Ministry of Health say as gospel.Them too lie and are spinners.

  3. I read an article.Where Gaston Browne as Prime Minister did say he was going to deport that woman.If she does not change her behavior.He was referring to the Spanish Woman from Villa Area.The one who left quarantine and went to a Tattoo shop.

  4. Molwyn you need to just hush. Like Melford you to are now contradicting statements in other official quarters!

  5. Is it true that 4 workers at a Resort tested positive for Covid-19 in Antigua. I am just asking a question.

  6. Some red pigs was spotted flying around in the hawksbill area by some blue pigs. A child was also tested positive for COVID19 at hawksbill hotel.

    Now if you can believe that you can also believe Molwyn. Lies half truths and innuendoes.

    Which one is the first paragraph?
