Caroline Ruiz, president of the TT Residential Care Association, said cases of covid19 started popping up at homes for the aged in April. “Almost every homeowner we spoke to concerning covid said they could not think how covid19 entered the home, but they noted that a client got sick and had to go for hospital care, or to a clinic.” She admitted that in a few cases, covid19 entered the homes through staff members. However, in most cases, the staff were negative while the residents were not, leading the association members to suspect the clients were exposed to the virus at health care facilities.
