St Helena Covid-19 Preparedeness Update

St Helena is still in the Prevent Stage and we continue to take precautionary measures to remain in this stage and further protect the Island.  At this time there is no medical evidence to escalate the current preventative measures we have in place on St Helena. The enhanced  Social Distancing measures which came into effect on Tuesday 31 March, will come to an end on Tuesday 14 April 2020.  We are grateful to the entire community including organisations and businesses for their support during this time and for the measures they have taken to date.

Repatriation Flight : We are waiting for confirmation of delivery of test kits and medical equipment in the UK, which will be brought on Island on a charter repatriation flight.  For full details https://www.sainthelena.gov.sh/2020/news/coronavirus-covid-19-st-helena-preparedness-update-9/
