 Welcome to NTM Nightly. I am Jesse Leance. This edition's top stories, contacts of the 27th recorded COVID-19 case, test a negative for the novel coronavirus. UNICEF aids the Ministry of Education in providing psychosocial support to young students and the Ireland's Governor-General is the newest member of the Rotary Club of St. Lucia. Investigations into the 27th case of COVID-19 recorded in St. Lucia are continuing by the Ministry of Health and Wellness. Chief Medical Officer Dr Sharon Belmar George says contact tracing is ongoing but thus far, all contacts of the individual that have been tested are negative. On receipt of the notification from the Azure Long Laboratory, the confirmed case was immediately isolated on contact tracing comments. The investigation consisted of interviews, contact tracing, screening and testing as required of all the possible contacts. These contacts included the passengers from the flight, seated in proximity to the case that is two rows in front and two rows to the back, port personnel, taxi driver, the hotel employees and the guests. The tests done in all of the contacts of the visitor thus far are all negative. Investigations and contact tracing by the health team at the hotel on Wednesday, September 9, 2020 has indicated that the transmission risk was low. The adherence by the hotel's management and staff to the recommended protocols resulted in low exposure during the limited period of his stay. On Tuesday, September 8, 2020, St. Lucia recorded the 27th case of COVID-19. The 27-year-old male visitor arrived in St. Lucia on Sunday, September 6, 2020. On the evening of Wednesday, September 9, 2020, he was repatriated to the United States via private airline. Dr. Belmont George reiterates the need for vigilance and compliance with established protocols. As more sectors open and restrictions are reduced, the public is advised as always to take the necessary personal responsibility to protect themselves and family. We continue to increase our surveillance to reduce the risks such as the illegal entry at the borders, breaches to home quarantine, and the non-adherence to protocols. We continue to advise on the maintenance of the standard recommendations for infection prevention and control, which include regular hand washing of soap and water, or alcohol-based hand sanitizers when soap and water may not be available, and to cover your mouth and nose with disposable tissues when coughing and sneezing. We appeal to everyone to continue supporting our national effort to minimize the threat of COVID-19 on our island. St. Lucia has recorded a total of 27 confirmed cases of COVID-19 with zero deaths. A total of 7,391 tests have been conducted to date.

The British Virgin Islands, Guyana and Trinidad and Tobago are among countries in the region that are tightening measures to combat the pandemic as cases continue to climb. Here's Michelle Nurse of Caracom Newstime. The British Virgin Islands went into hard lockdown from the 2nd of September until the 16th of September. That means that residents must remain within the confines of their home between a minute after 1 p.m. each day and 5 each morning. The limited hours of movement are for essential trips only, such as purchasing groceries or medicine or taking limited exercise. From the 1st of September, Guyana reverted to its 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. curfew. The curfew for the past couple of weeks was from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. At this part of measures to ensure strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols, charges will be imposed on individuals who fail to wear a mask in public spaces. Guyana's airports will also remain close to all incoming international flights, with some special exceptions. The measures are to remain in full effect until the 30th of September 2020. Over in Trinidad and Tobago, failure to wear a mask will also attract a penalty. All in-house dining at restaurants and bars, food courts and malls is suspended, and beaches, rivers, gyms and places of worship are closed. The Ministry of Education, Innovation, Gender Relations and Sustainable Development has presented a psychosocial support resources to district counselors supplied by UNICEF. The materials are to support young students who are adversely impacted by various stressors caused by COVID-19. Chief Education Officer Dr. Fiona Philip Meyer officially handed over the materials. The packages that each child will receive is part of a response. It would give them something tangible in terms of a mask, something that they can use, but there are affirmations on those masks. There is a doll, there's a stress doll, there's a ball as well. There are quite a few things in that little package, and all of that is compliments UNICEF and in collaboration with our district education officers and more specifically our district counselors who have been part and parcel of this process. Coordinator of Guidance Counseling, Joyce Lynn Eugene, thank to UNICEF on behalf of all school counselors for partnering with the education sector in St. Lucia in order to direct attention to the younger ones who like adults are attempting to cope with the challenges of COVID-19 particularly on family and school life. I want to appeal to the parents particularly to allow the children some time to play, to you know use the items that are in the bag because it is to help them ease some of their anxieties and some of the concerns that they may have as we have been going through this COVID period. On behalf of the district counselors who are here with me they have been the ones who worked diligently with our primary school students and they together with their district education officers have been planning on how we can alleviate some of the stress that the students would have been going through with the new the transition back into school. So this is also a gesture to assist some of the students with this with this transition. We have school counselors in the secondary school so we have gone through preparing bags for grades one to seven and so some of the students in the lower school will also receive some of the tangible items to assist them. This of course would be one phase of our efforts in helping students settle into the new academic year in a manner that is going to be that will be helpful for them that will relieve some of their tension some of their stress and will allow them to be successful despite some of the challenges that they face during COVID. Coordinator of Guidance Counseling in the Ministry of Education there Joyce Lynn Eugene. Governor General Sir Emanuel Neville Snack has accepted an invitation by the Rotary Club of St. Lucia to become an honorary member. The invitation was made during a call upon the Governor General by Rotary District Governor Lyle Chase along with Assistant Governor Charles Sarrié, District Secretary Soraya Warner Gustav, President Lethan Khan and a Chairperson Everest Jamari. Details in this report. Rotary and Lyle Chase has ascended to the prestigious position of district governor creating history. It is the first time that a St. Lucia is serving as governor for District 7030 which is a grouping of 72 clubs with the membership of more than 2200 spanning 17 territories from St. Kitt's Nevis in the North to French Guiana, Suriname, Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao in the South. Assistant Governor for St. Lucia Charles Sarrié says District Governor Chase has an impressive service record that has brought about change throughout the years. He joined the Rotary Club of St. Lucia in December of 1983 and he was president in the year 1988-1989. In 1992 he felt he should grow a little bit more so he opened another club the Rotary Club of Grosile and he was the first inaugural president and they had a unique distinction in that they allowed women into Rotary with something which the other clubs at the time were not allowing so he's a trailblazer as usual. The recently installed district governor is credited for ensuring the sustainability of Rotary by starting a satellite club for the youth in 2017. Noting the success of Rotary International in eradicating polio in all but two countries of the world Governor Lyle Chase is keen on replicating that health success in the region. A childhood obesity prevention program is at the top of the agenda. Chase explained the importance of the program. Childhood obesity is the genesis of many of our non-communicable diseases, diabetes, hypertension, even things like depression and cancer are rooted in childhood obesity in many cases and in the Caribbean area over 40 to 45 percent of our adolescents are obese and that figure has come from five percent within the last 20 years. St Lucia's Governor General, his Excellency, Sir Emmanuel Neville Snack lauded the Rotary Club for its commitment to community and pledged support to the agenda of district governor Lyle Chase. The work that Rotary is doing cannot be put in a scale with any work that is being done anywhere for Rotary not to take the scale. I'm particularly moved by, apart from everything else, by the plan to take the hundred or so people who have gone astray of the streets. We can refer to them as Christ would himself as an east of our brethren. And I believe it would be one of the greatest jobs that Rotary would have done, post-English. District Governor Lyle Chase has also committed to pursuing peace and literacy during his term. From the Government Information Service, Lyssa Joseph reports in.
