Samples sent to the Trinidad-based Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) have shown that there were at least 13 persons with the Mu and Delta variants of the coronavirus in the BVI. 
Mu is considered a ‘variant of interest’ while the deadly Delta variant has been tagged as ‘a variant of concern’.
Appearing on the Honestly Speaking radio programme on Thursday, Health Minister Carvin Malone said seven persons tested positive for the Delta variant and another six persons had the Mu variant of COVID-19. Their samples had been collected between September 1 and 29.
“It is critical for us because we want to make sure that folks know that these Deltas and these Mu’s are closing down populations,” the Health Minister said. 
Malone cautioned that the BVI did not want to return to a state of having more than 1,600 positive cases of the virus, as was the case a few months ago. 
“We want to make sure that we keep our hospitalisation [rate] down. We want to make sure that we keep our mortality rate down,” the Health Minister stated. 
The current positivity rate of the virus in the BVI stands at 3.3 percent, Malone said. 
More AstraZeneca vaccines arrive from the UK 
The Health Minister also noted that the BVI’s current vaccine penetration rate stands at 52 percent with another 2,139 persons yet to receive their second dose of the AstraZeneca vaccines.

Many businesses and organizations have sensitive information. Since the information needs to be secure, it’s necessary to learn how to protect it. Here are a few tips that will teach you how to handle confidential information.

Authorized Viewers Only

One of the most important things to remember while learning how to handle confidential information is to allow only authorized viewers to see it. A couple of ways to ensure that the information is kept safe is to lock the documents in a secure location, or if they’re online, you can use complex passwords.

Secure Transportation

Sending these types of documents to other departments or different locations can be risky. If you need to move the documents, then use your most trusted employee or mail service to deliver the confidential content. If you plan to send the documents digitally, encrypt the files or use a very secure email platform.

Dispose of Documents Properly

There are many ways to increase your company’s document security, and one method is to dispose of the documents properly. Using a secure shredder that cannot be easily accessed is one of the best ways to ensure the information remains confidential. Make sure you use a quality shredder that will make it burdensome to piece the papers back together. If you use digital documents, double-check that you’ve removed them from the USB and any other storage files.

Workplace Organization

A cluttered, unorganized workspace is not a great place to store your confidential documents. They could get lost, stolen, or accidentally moved. Make sure the work area where confidential information is stored and reviewed is clean, organized, and away from prying eyes.

Employee Training

This might not be a popular opinion, but creating your course, membership, or other digital product and then trying to sell it is sabotaging your online business.

Wait, what? Aren’t you supposed to create a product and then try to sell it? Isn’t that what marketing’s about?

If you follow that common path, you’ll end up like so many other entrepreneurs who have built an amazing product but nobody’s buying. That’s the reality. So let’s dive in and talk about what should you do instead.

Creating Demand Is A Fool’s Errand

Creating a product without knowing if there’s a market for it and then trying to create  demand for it is a concept that professional marketers gave up in the 1960s.

That’s because the whole notion of creating demand is a fool’s errand. Trying to get people to buy a product that they don’t actually want is never the way to go.

The marketing concept that came after the selling concept was called the marketing concept (I know, very original). This concept said that we should sense what the market wants. That requires us to listen and do the in-depth work of studying our market and then creating a product to meet that existing demand.

You might say, yeah, doing market research is a given. I’m gonna go and tell people about my idea and ask them what they think.

That’s not validating a product. But that’s what a lot of people taught for a long time. They would call people and talk about the product. But here’s the problem, if you do that with a preconceived idea of what you’re going to create and tell people, guess what, they aren’t going to want to hurt your feelings. So whether it’s a good or bad idea, they’re gonna tell you, “I think that’s a good idea.”
