Antigua & Barbuda: Gov imposes 30-day ban on social events

Saturday, 14th March 2020

The Government of Antigua and Barbuda today reported a 30-day restriction on all fetes, parties and comparative get-togethers.

Head administrator Gaston Browne said this comes as a pre-emptive measure to protect against the spread of the coronavirus.

This boycott produces quick results, and residents are advised that the police won't award licenses for open occasions during this period.

The Prime Minister said the boycott would be audited toward the finish of the 30-day cycle.

Despite the boycott, Loop News comprehends that honorary pathway chief of Wendy, bits of which was shot in Antigua, will go on as arranged.

This was affirmed by Tourism Minister Charles Fernandez who said similarly as he's mindful, the occasion planned for Saturday, is still on.

Wendy is a reconsidered take of the well-known kids' great Peter Pan which highlights Antiguan national Yashua Mack, who was given a role as Peter.
