DEAR EDITOR,
Permit me to share a personal event with your readers. On the 13th day of April in the year 2021, I was stopped in what was a road block by the Guyana Police Force in Mahaicony. The officer that stopped me did not ask for any of my documents but rather asked why am I not wearing my face mask? I said officer because I am alone in my vehicle I do not see the need for it. The officer said well it is now mandatory to do so even if you are alone in your vehicle. I am not aware that this is now mandatory in Guyana? Does this mean that COVID-19 is airborne? (To my knowledge it is not). Does this mean that they will start charging persons hanging out at particular bars in New Amsterdam? Does this mean when I see a patrol unit and none of the officers are wearing masks I can go to them and say that is an offence? The task force is moving in a haphazard way with COVID-19. If it does become an offence then I will say that is crazy and stupid to say the least.
