New National COVID-19 Public Adviser Davis Ellis has joined Prime Minister Mia Amor Mottley and other officials for a live press conference.

Mottley made the announcement at the start of the press conference a short while ago.

Ellis, a former media manager, this morning signed off Starcom Network’s flagship programme Down To Brass Tacks.

He said “goodbye for now” but did not indicate his next move.

Ellis retired from Starcom Network in February after more than 40 years in journalism, but continued as a moderator on the very popular call-in programme Brass Tacks. (KG)
