But he said the focus was still on keeping the country Covid-19 free and he urged everyone to adhere to public health directives.
"Let us focus on what each one of us can do to limit, to prevent and limit the spread of Covid-19 or any outbreak prone diseases."
Meanwhile more emergency medical teams were being dispatched to communities affected by Tropical Cyclone Harold.
