West Bar, Holetown, St James announced on social media that three staff members, while being asymptomatic, had tested positive for COVID-19 and are currently being facilitated at Government’s Harrison’s Point, St Lucy isolation centre.
“All other staff have tested negative and will continue to self-quarantine until receiving the results of a second test to be conducted over the next two days.
“We would like to send prayers and positive thoughts to the affected three members of our team and to their families, as well as to the citizens of Barbados and visitors to our lovely island,” West Bar management said in a statement.
The statement noted that “these are definitely trying times for all of us” and urged everyone to follow the COVID-19 protocols outlined by Government. “Remember, do it for you, your family, your friends . . . for everyone.”
