The Bahamas is the first nation in the Caribbean to be placed on a round-the-clock curfew by its government, lead by Prime Minister Hubert Minnis. Other islands such as Puerto Rico had previously implemented a partial (nighttime) curfew to curb the spread of #COVIDー19. @werbuzz – at Trinidad and Tobago
