This evening the Minister of Health, the Hon. Kim Wilson, JP, MP, said, “We are once again urging members of the public to please take the necessary precautions to protect you and your families. We have been made aware of some disturbing social activities over the New Year’s holiday that saw a significant number of individuals at a location who were not engaging in safe practices.

“Reckless behaviour such as this is unfortunate, and we understand that the Bermuda Police Service is investigating the incident. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of making sensible and responsible decisions. Please avoid closed spaces, crowded places and close-contact settings. As a final reminder, group sizes are restricted to 10 persons.”
