    Has this been clarified any further in regard to stay in zone vs stay on resort?

    No, and we we had a meeting of the Chamber yesterday with a representative of TDPCo and things actually became less clear. The rep from TDPCo was claiming that ALL tourists needed to quarantine for two weeks. That was met by confused disbelief. Someone has something obviously wrong.

    It is was pointed out that TPDCo was certifying places that have no dining capabilities, they are certifying tour operators, restaurants and bars and we received no real answer to the logical discrepancies. They said that they would look into it and get back to us.

    Possibly the rep from TDPCo read the following. The last thing directly from Minister of Health about this was posted last Thursday:

    "Returning Residents and Visitors* to Jamaica MUST remain in quarantine at home for minimum of 14 days. Residents and visitors are NOT permitted to leave home to attend to business, funerals or weddings before the end of the 14 days.If the Quarantine Order is violated , you can be taken into State quarantine and/or be charged. Protect yourself…while protecting others. Stop the spread of COVID-19.

    * This does not apply to business tourists or tourists staying on the resilient corridors."




    And it does not make any mention of tourists staying on property in the resilient corridors, just those ON the resilient corridor....

    The hoteliers as a whole said that they are not going to act as the police, and if a guest strolls 200 yards down the beach, are they breaking the law?

    Clear as mud....
