The Valley, Anguilla, March 25, 2020: Anguilla's Ministry of Health & Social Development is on the front foot with the launch of a new platform - www.beatcovid19.ai - to provide a single online source for information about all aspects of the effects of coronavirus on the island, its residents and nationals wherever they are currently located in the world.  

The new website provides a central space for all official news and updates related to COVID-19. The latest statements and information from the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Tourism, the Air & Sea Ports Authority (AASPA) and the Anguilla Tourist Board (ATB) are all available on this site.

www.beatcovid19.ai also explains the facts about coronavirus, the status of the pandemic globally as well as in Anguilla (where no confirmed cases have yet been reported), along with tips and resources outlining simple preventive measures everyone can take to guard against the virus,  in a clear, concise and easily accessible format.

The updates on the website extend beyond health-related concerns,  giving users the ability to input their Employment Status, a feature that provides the Government of Anguilla with key data on the impact of COVID-19 on the island's working population and their needs.

The site also features updates from the education department regarding the status of all learning institutions; tourism, on travel in and out of Anguilla; the financial institutions, on the latest financial relief measures; and other key stakeholders that serve large segments of the population.

About Anguilla

Tucked away in the northern Caribbean, Anguilla is a shy beauty with a warm smile. A slender length of coral and limestone fringed with green, the island is ringed with 33 beaches, considered by savvy travelers and top travel magazines to be the most beautiful in the world. A fantastic culinary scene, a wide variety of quality accommodations at varying price points, a host of attractions and exciting calendar of festivals make Anguilla an alluring and entrancing destination.

Anguilla lies just off the beaten track, so it has retained a charming character and appeal. Yet -  because it can be conveniently reached from two major gateways, Puerto Rico and St. Martin, and by private air travel -  it's a hop and a skip away. Romance? Barefoot elegance? Unfussy chic? And unrivalled bliss? Anguilla is Beyond Extraordinary.
