COVID-19 UPDATE & CABINET DECISIONS TO ADDRESS THE SURGE!
JULY 5
Today as we celebrate Virgin Islands Day, I wish to extend greetings to everyone in these beautiful islands and to those joining us by radio and other social media platforms throughout the world.
In the Virgin Islands, as we have turned the page into the new month of July, it would appear that we have turned to a new page in our experience as a Territory, battling this dreaded COVID-19 disease. No doubt the reports and statistics have affected the general mood in these islands and have been a concerning one for most, if not all of us.

ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - It was all smiles and laughter for the elderly residents of two local care homes, when Deputy Speaker and Territorial At-Large Member, Hon Neville A. Smith (AL) made good on his promise to host a special Christmas lunch to celebrate VI s elders.
Both the Adina Donovan Home for the Elderly and the Safe Haven Transitional Home were pitstops on the journey of ‘Santa Smith,’ who decided to provide lunchtime meals to VI’s most precious citizens today, December 21, 2020.
While Hon Smith was not clad in the traditional garb of St. Nick, ‘Santa Smith’ told VINO that the next stop on his Christmas journey is to provide food vouchers to anonymous VI families in need of some holiday help.
