As part of the COVID-19 outbreak, the community has taken measures to protect its agents and people. In order to respond to the emergency and allow the officers to resume activities and the public service, the community had to acquire personal protective equipment (masks, protective screens...). It has also made a commitment to implement as soon as possible the screening and the possibility of carrying out tests in the territory of Saint-Martin facilitating access to care for people detected positive for COVID-19. Exchanges with the ARS (Regional Health Agency) have made it possible to define the needs in the territory and to agree the necessary equipment plan. Thus, two screening machines: 1 GENEXPERT 2 modules, 2 additional modules GENEXPERT and 1 GENEXPERT 16 modules are acquired by the community in order to carry out the tests and have the result immediately. The equipment is made available to the laboratory BIO POLE ANTILLES, which will be responsible for carrying out the tests and the treatment of them. The community also purchased 3,000 PCR screening tests.
