In todays Trinidad Guardian Ebola team: No reason to abort Carnival 2015 Chairman of the National Ebola Prevention Information and Response Team, Vice Chief of Defence Staff Brigadier General Anthony Phillips-Spencer, says the Carnival 2015 will go on despite the global concerns over the spread of the Ebola virus. He made the comment yesterday at a news conference at the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port-of-Spain, following a meeting with various stakeholder groups on how the Ebola threat would affect the annual festival. Among those who attended the meeting were representatives from Trinbago Unified calypsonians Organisation (Tuco), mas bands, Carnival fete promoters, mayors and chairmen of borough and regional corporations, permanent secretaries, business and private sector, members of civil society, vendors, media representatives and academics. Phillips-Spencer said they made that decision because the Ebola risk in T&T was very low although he admitted it was a situation which would be continually reviewed.
