A trickle of tourists is what the government has wanted all along during this 2 week Phase 1 test period. The borders are open but the island in general is not for visitors, just the "corridor".
As of Wednesday, only about 140 business entities had been certified by TPDCo as COVID Resilient. A business needs that certification to allow tourists to visit their property.
A total of 6000 visitors in 2 weeks for the entire island is less than what Negril gets in one week any week during busy season.
This is a way to test the protocols in a measured manner so as to not overwhelm the system. Holness lost his cool about a week ago when a journalist asked about the "massive influx of tourists on the 15th". He tore off his mask and basically asked the journalist what planet are they living on.
It was a tremendous moment for a live press conference.... LOL
