Visitors to Jamaica are not the problem. Yesterday the number of new imported cases (visitors - 5) was less than 1% of the total new cases (558). That is why the border closing was not even hinted at in the new Covid restrictions.
Its the other 99% that is the problem. Illegal parties have much to do with those numbers. Thus the heavy weekend curfew measures.
Not mentioned in the above is the new up to $500,000j fine for breaching the Covid measures. If a few of the illegal party promoters get dinged with that fine, it might prevent some others from staging future illegal parties.

I just spent a week in Negril and felt safer there than here in Minnesota. Masks, temp checks, and sanitizer everywhere. Book, pack, go. Just follow the protocols. They need the business now more than ever.
Sing unto God, sing praises to his name: extol him that rideth upon the heavens by his name JAH, and rejoice before him. KJV Psalm 68:4
I agree with Ras. We just returned from a couple weeks ago. Book, pack and go. They need our business. Our last trip was the best we have had because the locals were so glad we were there.
Wondering if anyone's heard of any updates beyond 4/12 on curfew? Arriving soon and doing some head planning (daydreaming) for our first nights dinner.
