The Belize Police Department issued a memo to its officers restricting their movement to and from San Pedro Town which goes into effect immediately. The measure will remain in place for 2 weeks, at which time the police headquarters will be looking for assistance from health authorities.
The memo, which came from the Deputy Commissioner Desiree Magdaleno, notes that the restriction comes in response to the confirmed cases of COVID-19 on the island. Officers who are dispatched on San Pedro but are on leave or holiday will be permitted to return to work.
