The Health Services Sub-committee of the National Emergency Management Organization (NEMO) wishes to inform the public that review of applications for  fully vaccinated events has resumed. All private citizens, organizations, promoters, DJs and event coordinators are asked to take note. 

The Sub-committee takes this opportunity to remind the public that the mass gathering protocols for indoor and outdoor gatherings (maximum of 10 persons indoors, 20 persons outdoors and 1/3  of the place of worship’s capacity) are still in effect. These gatherings include, but are not limited  to clubs, bars, restaurants, wedding, funerals, conference rooms, churches and private gatherings.  

Those wishing to exceed the required capacity are asked to note the revised protocol for fully  vaccinated events:  

Option 1: Fully vaccinated (1st & 2nd doses or a single dose) and appropriately  boosted (5-6 months) for all eligible patrons, vendors, health and security  personnel; 

Option 2: Fully vaccinated (1st & 2nd doses) and a negative antigen test taken no  more than 24 hours prior to the event at an approved testing site or by a MOHWE  approved testing team for those who are not appropriately boosted. For all eligible  patrons, vendors, and health and security personnel. 

The Health Services Sub-committee will continue to be guided by the ever-evolving science as  we work together with the public to maintain the health and wellbeing of all of St. Vincent and  the Grenadines.
