Increased fever & respiratory issues in VI linked to COVID-19 virus- Health Ministry
The Unit has also noted that the increased reports of cases is linked to an increase in cases of the virus that causes COVID-19.
“The Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit has noticed a significant increase in reports of Fever and Respiratory syndromes in both the over and under five (5) age groups. We are above the threshold, placing the Territory firmly in the Danger/ High Alert zone,” the Unit alerted healthcare providers on May 29, 2024.
“Last week’s increase is associated with an increase of SARS-CoV-2 cases, which represent approximately fifty-one percent (51%) of Fever and Respiratory reports. At present, cases have reported only mild presentations,” the Unit continued.
‘Remain vigilant’
The public has been urged to remain vigilant so as to quickly respond and mitigate transmission within the Territory.
The Epidemiology and Surveillance Unit has also asked healthcare providers to conduct the necessary diagnostic tests on patients presenting with ILI and ARI symptoms, influenza, Covid-19 and dengue.
“This allows us to better understand what is circulating in the British Virgin Islands, so that we can educate and protect the public,” the Unit stated.
Mask wearing encouraged
Healthcare providers have also been advised to “re-implement” the necessary prevention and control measures at their facility to protect staff. This includes mask-wearing, and proper hand and respiratory hygiene practices.
“Remind patients of the prevention and control measures to protect themselves, e.g., proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette,” healthcare providers were told.
Additionally, the Unit urged healthcare providers to send “accurate and complete” reports on time.

Ronald, and Lionell have striked again with their ^%$£y....
I went to one 2 weeks ago and he necer tested me. He 'think I have the flu'. How it going round. Man I started to feel worst, high high fever and bad weakness, so i went to a different doctor and it come bk positive for Covid. I need to sue cause flu normal, we dont die from that
This is healthcare system is broken from the NHI go down.
If the providers don’t submit the “accurate” reports, how will we know what’s going around? How can they trace? We could be in the middle of a big outbreak and wouldn’t know cause they won’t submit the information.
Just my 2 cents
Cause the vaccine has the virus. It’s only a matter of time before it breaks down their Immune.
I know of 3 persons who recently went into hospital for lung infection
They all fully vax
That was Covid-19. A deadly virus mixed with medical emotion & hysterical ignorance on a massive global scale. Similar to president Nixon convicting & convincing the world to lock people up for all 'drugs' except alcohol, caffeine & tobacco. It was never done before on such a scale.
Now we have drug cartels all over the globe when those substances were virtually worthless before. Hell the hippies were giving out free 'drugs'.
A Doctor here have given me conflicting medication while joking like his job is easy. But guess what I did my own research on what he gave me and found out the two medications should not be used together.
To explain to a doctor the benefits of cannabis in this day & age is shameful. Shameful because they were completely ignorant, hadnt even tried to stay current with one of the most tested & medically useful plants known to man.
