Around 92 per cent of these people have recovered. This is good news.

Feminism in the 1960s and 1970s made a difference in the life of women in the United States, but the womens movement is often remembered as being too white.

Prime Minister Dr Keith Rowley has advised citizens to obey public health regulations to wear masks when entering public places.

So if that operator says no mask no roti, no mask don’t come in here they have an authority to tell you that.

Rowley said a joint police and district medical officer will soon begin to enforce public health regulations throughout the country.

He said, “If you don’t (comply) and there is no authority for police to act under the regulations there will be the opportunity for the district medical officer to act under Public Health Act.”

The medical officer has that authority and if what you are doing offends the Public Health Act the district medical officer has a lot of power to act.”
