Part 1 - Neville James hosts territorial epidemiologist Dr. Esther Ellis and Dr. Brett Ellis, the territory laboratory director, in a mid-month update on the state of COVID-19 in the USVI. Dr. Esther Ellis details that the Department of Health (DOH) is concentrating on congregate living facilities as they work towards a 14-day period with zero positives results. She provides some clarity regarding the discrepancies between the DOH and Lime Tree Bay’s data, the safety protocols in place for private and parochial schools, and the health declarations required at ports throughout the territory.
