THE Prime Minister has reminded people who are looking forward to returning to some form of exercise on Monday not to congregate, as TT is still in a pandemic.

Dr Rowley was speaking at the covid19 media briefing on Saturday.

Since the middle of May exercising in public has been prohibited owing to a rise in covid19 cases.

“We did last week talk about exercising outdoors in groups of five. We will hold on to that and that means people who are going to the golf course in groups of four ,you are in there, but no congregation and no service. Just use the course as an outdoor area for a group,” Rowley said.

Some of the popular golf courses in TT are those at Chaguaramas, St Andrew’s in Moka, Pointe-a-Pierre  and the Magdalena Golf Course in Tobago.

Rowley reiterated that only national teams would be allowed to train together.

“Of course no team sports, no contact sports…an exemption exists for national teams – that still stands – but at the personal level, with your clubs and so on, not yet. We are doing well. Let’s continue to get the benefits of doing well.”
