Going back now to PM Briceno's statement from a short while ago - he discussed Cabinet's first meeting and spoke about the national COVID plan - or lack thereof. He said one will be presented at the next Cabinet meeting:
Hon. John Briceno - Prime Minister of Belize "We were shocked to learn that there is no real plan to contain the spread of the virus. Cabinet instructed the Minister of Health to meet with his technical team and advisors to develop a comprehensive plan to address the spread of the virus. The plan will be presented to Cabinet at its next meeting on Tuesday. As a nation we are dealing with a number of serious issues including rising numbers of infections and deaths from the Coronavirus, thousands of Belizeans affected by flooding caused by two storms and increasing unemployment. I call on all Belizeans to please stay safe and work together as we start the process of restoring our lives and nation."
