20 Minutes with AFP
Posted on 6/22/20 at 10:47 p.m. - Updated on 6/23/20 at 9:04 a.m.

Matignon said Monday that "the hypothesis of a reconfiguration " of Guyana will have to be re-examined if the signs of an acceleration of the epidemic of coronavirus are confirmed and "if the reproduction rate remains in the days to come a high level. "

A few hours later, the Ministry of Health announced that a "mission of three health professionals" had been sent to Guyana to coordinate the management of the crisis, while the situation of the epidemic there "is considered very worrying by the health authorities ”.

Reproduction rate "greater than 2"

The virus "is actively circulating" in this overseas territory, "in particular along the coast and in all the cities of the territory," said the Directorate General of Health (DGS) in a press release.

The reproduction factor, that is to say the number of new people infected on average by each sick person, "is greater than 2" and the incidence rate is "very much higher than the alert threshold, set to 50 positive tests per 100,000 inhabitants, ”she adds. In this context, a mission of three health professionals (a liaison officer from the Health Crisis Center and two resuscitators) was sent on site to coordinate crisis management with the local Regional Health Agency (ARS).

Health evacuations in preparation

"Specific protective measures" have been taken to curb the spread of the virus, "such as wearing a mask with distributions to the population and restricting certain activities and movements (curfews in areas where the virus circulates, reduction in business opening hours, targeted containment in certain areas, etc. ”, specifies the DGS.

Medical evacuations to the Antilles are also "being prepared in order to relieve the intensive care services".

The ARS publishes the Covid figures for Saturday and Sunday this Monday morning. 313 new cases were detected. Three new deaths have been reported, bringing the total to 15 Coronavirus-related deaths since March 4.

15 more patients are hospitalized, bringing the number of people in this case to 120, to which must be added 27 people in intensive care. This Sunday, six patients were evacuated to Martinique and Guadeloupe.
Last week, a Covid report reported the number of deaths "in hospital". Does this mean that there are deaths outside hospitals? We posed the question to Prefect Marc del Grande: "It can happen that there are patients who die at home, this is a figure which is not by definition completely consolidated. Mortality observed in Guyana from March 1, 2020 to date is significantly down, which is an indicator to check that there are not many Covid deaths in the homes. It can happen that there are deaths indeed ... To my knowledge, there has been a death at home. But to my knowledge, I'm not the medical authority. "

Guyana needs additional 300 " caregivers " to cope with the accelerating coronavirus epidemic, Overseas Minister Annick Girardin told deputies on Tuesday, launching a new call for national solidarity.

According to Annick Girardin, " more than 100 people " have already arrived in Guyana. " We have 1000 tests per day, it is higher than the national average ", " we have more than 2 million masks, we have the equipment and the means ", but " we do not have enough human resources today 'hui , ' she added. " We have to be at this meeting ," insisted the minister, launching, as she has already done on several occasions, " a solemn and national appeal for solidarity ".

And of the four criteria that led to Mayotte being kept in the orange zone, " a first is green, " said the minister, without specifying which one.

" We can have hope in Mayotte to get out of this crisis and get out of the state of emergency. This is what we will do by decree as soon as the prefect, the ARS and the elected representatives of the territory ask us to do so, ”she added. Mayotte counted Tuesday 2603 positive cases, 34 hospitalizations including 4 in intensive care, and 33 deaths.
