So, as we told you at the top - we are pushing towards new regulations, the details of which we will know in about an hour when the Prime Minister makes a national address.

Today in Orange Walk - at the inauguration of a new BWS building PM Briceno didn't give any specifics - but he discussed government's strategy - alluding to the lockdown at the end of 2020:

Hon. John Briceno, Prime Minister
"About a month and a half when we had the semi-locked down, remember Christmas when we coundlnt go visit our families - we had that lockdown. By the end of January we had it under control. Just a few months ago we had less than 10 persons infected. Today we have hundreds, because of the new Delta Variant that spreads very quickly."

"As much as we are trying to educate people to get vaccinated, people are not listening and that is why now every week, every other week as a government we are noticing that as much as we dont want to put stiffer restrictions, we will have to get there, more sooner than later. Because of the work that we did earlier we managed to get the economy going."
