FROM FRIDAY, WE’LL FOCUS ON;

  1. GATHERINGS – NO PICNICS WITH OTHERS

  2. INFECTED PEOPLE – WTF

  3. ROADS – DON’T BLAST AROUND THE TT COURSE

  4. CRIME – SOME ARE EXPLOITING THIS – THE DRUG DEALERS ARE STILL ACTIVE

QUESTIONS

  • WHAT ARE THE ACTIVITIES? ABSEILING / KAYAKING / DRIVE AROUND THE ISLAND? COMIN ARE DISCUSSING THE LIST TOMORROW 

  • ALL COMMUNITY DEATHS RECORDED TO DATE HAVE BEEN IN THE ABBOTSWOOD CLUSTER

  • SOME ABBOTSWOOD RESIDENTS HAVE BEEN MOVED TO NEWLANDS SO THAT IT CAN BE DEEP CLEANED. HOME IS BEING DEEP CLEANED SECTION BY SECTION 

  • PEAK DATA – ORIGINALLY EXPECTED THAT IT WOULD BE MAY 

  • LATEST DATA SHOWS THAT THE CURVE HAS BEEN PUSHED RIGHT DOWN SO WE ARE NO LONGER EXPECTING A MASSIVE PEAK 

  • WE HAVE SQUASHED THE CURVE – BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THERE WON’T BE A SPIKE IN THE FUTURE

  • WE ARE IN A GOOD PLACE SO IT MAKES MORE SENSE TO RELAX LOCKDOWN

  • THIS IS A MARATHON NOT A SPRINT – WE’RE IN A FOR A LONG RUN OF SOME SORT OF LOCKDOWN

  • PM – DO YOU HAVE CARD READERS TO COLLECT FINE? GARY – NO 

  • PM – REPATRIATION POLICE PRESENCE – BIT OVER THE TOP? GARY – WELL WE’RE DOING IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY FROM NOW ON 

  • THIS IS A LEARNING CURVE FOR EVERYONE 

  • IT’LL TAKE 8 DAYS TO SEE THE IMPACT OF CONSTRUCTION RETURN 

  • THE POLICE WON’T DEAL WITH HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK ISSUES 

  • WHY ARE PEOPLE GOING BACK TO WORK ON A FRIDAY RATHER THAN A MONDAY? THE TASK FORCE TEAM DECIDED THAT AROUND THE PROCEDURES THAT NEED TO BE PUT IN PLACE. GUERNSEY HAVE CHOSEN FRIDAY EVENING. 

  • SAM – COME BACK TO THE STAND GARY – GET YOUR STEPS IN FOR THE DAY
