Haiti - COVID-19 : There is no longer a state of health emergency in Haiti

The state of health emergency in Haiti has ended since July 20 as announced by Prime Minister Jouthe, believing that the spread of the Covid-19 coronavirus was under control, recalling that measures had been taken, among other things, to allow textile factories to operate at 100% since July 6 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31162-haiti-politic-jovenel-moise-announces-the-gradual-reopening-of-the-national-economy.html , for religious services to resume their services since July 12 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31198-haiti-news-zapping.html and for schools to resume their school activities on August 10 https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31217-haiti-flash-all-the-details-on-the-resumption-of-school-activities.html

However, he indicated that vigilance was still required "[...] we monitor every day what is happening on the border and in airports. So far, we are more or less comfortable ”specifying that the non-renewal of the state of health emergency does not eliminate compliance with barrier measures to prevent the spread of the virus (wearing a mask and social distancing) nor does curfew which remains in effect from midnight to 4:00 am

The Prime Minister does not know why the Covid-19 did not claim as many victims in Haiti as in other countries of the world https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31388-haiti-covid-19-daily-report-july-27-2020.html , believing that traditional remedies could be one of the explanations... However, note that in Africa despite traditional remedies the spread of Covid-19 is increasing and several countries have already extended the state of health emergency on their territory...

But it is true that if we are to believe the latest figures from the Ministry of Public Health, there would be only 2,817 infected people in Haiti (active cases) https://www.haitilibre.com/en/news-31390-haiti-flash-there-would-be-only-2-817-active-cases-of-covid-19-in-the-country.html
