Good Afternoon, 

The team at the Department of Public Transportation (DPT), in conjunction with the Department of Health, have been working hard to ensure that the return to school is as smooth as possible for those students who rely on using the public bus system. 

The Department of Health has provided COVID-19 guidance specific to the school bus service, permitting all seats to be occupied, with no persons standing. These buses will carry students only. 

 Good Afternoon Bermuda:

 We are now just five days from the reopening of Bermuda’s Public Schools and welcoming back just under 5,000 pre, primary, middle and senior students.  I’ve met with parents and students across the island who are excited about safely returning to school and to a normal routine.  I have also heard from and met with parents who are understandably apprehensive about the return to school.  To assist with the transition, we have incorporated new protocols and practices to facilitate the safe return of our students and staff.

The Department of Education has been working closely with the Department of Health over the past five (5) months to reopen schools responsibly.

Our priority is and will continue to be ensuring safe, healthy school environments for our staff and students.

As parents prepare to send their children to our schools, we want to reassure parents that we have planned carefully, intentionally and responsibly for the reopening of our schools.

Good evening Bermuda. 

During today’s briefing, we will have an update on COVID-19 testing and other matters from the Minister of Health. I will provide an update on the Supplementary Unemployment Benefit, and the grant of 50% Payroll Tax Relief to Taxi Owners and Operators. 

But before those announcements, I wish to start with the good news that Minister for the Cabinet Office, Hon. Wayne L. Furbert announced. The Department of Statistics has compiled the 2020 edition of the Employment Briefs, and Minister Furbert released the data earlier today. 

Good Afternoon,

Between Sunday and today there were 2,140 test results received by the Ministry of Health, and two were positive for COVID-19. Both cases were contacts of known cases – one was a resident and one a visitor.

In a first for Bermuda, one of the positive cases was a child who had been quarantining with their parents, so the result was not unexpected. There is no public health risk as both cases were already quarantined before testing positive.

Bermuda has had 177 total confirmed positive cases. Their status is as follows:
