Dear Editor: Citizens alone aren’t to blame, the MoH’s test results are inadequate
“[…] There is also the case of someone who was in contact with a person who tested positive. They did a test at a health centre and after five days they did not receive the result. The individual responsibly went into self-quarantine and eventually received a negative report.
“Why in these critical times have the necessary measures not been put in place so that health centres could be opened on public holidays or 24 hours a day to do testing?”

“[…] Agility and adaptability are to be commended, but some decisions seem almost erratic: close membership shopping centres like PriceSmart or not? Or open them in a different way?

HEALTH Minister Terrence Deyalsingh says the Bar Association’s proposal to the government of a temporary ban on all alcohol consumption in public spaces is, at this point, a “non-starter.”

The government reinstated four measures today meant to flatten the curve of Covid-19 infections, as Trinidad and Tobago reels from its highest surge of the novel coronavirus since August 2020.
Minister of Health Terrence Deyalsingh announced that all gatherings for entertainment and concerts are now outlawed, while the public service will operate on a 50 percent ‘rotational basis’, places of worship are asked to operate at 25 percent capacity, and weddings and funerals must be limited to 10 persons.
