The Office of the Prime Minister (OPM) announced a short while ago that Prime Minister Keith Rowley will host a Press Conference today (Saturday 29th May 2021) at 2:30pm at the Diplomatic Centre in St. Ann’s.
Since the State of Emergency was announced on 15th May 2021, Trinidad and Tobago has recorded 6,721 new cases and 182 deaths. The State of Emergency was recently extended by ninety (90) days. The Ministry of Health reported 633 new COVID-19 cases yesterday, which is the second-highest number ever recorded, along with eighteen (18) more deaths. The country’s death toll has reached 458. The record for the most daily cases was set on 21st May 2021 with 708 cases and the record for most daily deaths was set on 18th May 2021 with twenty-three (23) deaths. There have been 11,796 new cases and 289 deaths so far in the month of May. The above statistics are no doubt still very alarming to the Prime Minister - even with a State of Emergency in effect along with numerous restrictions still in place, the number of new cases and deaths being reported daily remain high. Prime Minister Rowley last addressed the nation on 22nd May 2021, exactly one (1) week ago, where he announced an extension of the current restrictions by six (6) weeks, until 4th July 2021. There have been some talk of restricting the curfew hours to 6pm to 6am, instead of 9pm to 5am, but that will have other repercussions that the Government may not want to entertain at this time - such as reduced time for grocery shopping, etc. What do you think the Prime Minister will announce today?
