The National COVID-19 Task Force and the Guyana Motor Racing and Sports Club (GMR&SC) must both accept responsibility and blame for the flagrant breach of agreement on Sunday during round one of the Drag Race Championship at the South Dakota Circuit.
The Task Force granted permission for the club to host the event to cater for 1500 persons inclusive of competitors and fans but it turned into a potential disastrous ‘super spreader’ for the coronavirus as more than double that amount of persons were allowed unimpeded through gates.
Being quite generous, according to reports, in excess of 4000 persons thronged the circuit.
