Prime Minister Mia Mottley will update Barbadians on Thursday about the efforts to fight COVID-19 during the current national pause.

Barbados has been on restrictions since February 3, 2021 as the COVID-19 virus entered the stage of community spread.

There were seven deaths up to mid-January, but the island recorded 25 since then. Among the measures to fight the spread were the house-to-house Operation Seek and Save survey, increased testing and the rollout of a national vaccination programme.

The time of the national address is to be confirmed. (SAT)
