St. Kitts and Nevis to allow only fully vaccinated people to enter their borders

Effective May 29, only fully vaccinated people will be allowed to enter Saint Kitts and Nevis.

This is one of several new measures announced by Prime Minister Dr Timothy Harris during a national address on May 25.

He said the new COVID protocols being implemented are in response to an increase in cases recorded in the last week.

In the national address, Prime Minister Dr Timothy Harris confirmed the presence of a cluster of new cases. 

To contain the spread of the virus, he said the Cabinet accepted a list of recommendations put forward by the Ministry of Health.

The list of new restrictions includes a curfew from 11 pm to 5 am daily from May 26 for 14 days.

The number of passengers on public transportation will be reduced to 50 per cent of the established capacity.

All contact sports suspended for the next two weeks and no mass events will be allowed.
