Dr. Sharon Belmar George is the chief medical officer. Three of these cases were identified through the contact tracing process and an epidemiological link has been established for these three cases. Case number 174 is linked to cases 109 and 165. Case number 175 is linked to cases 109 and 163. Case number 176 is linked to case number 169. As a protocol, the arrangements have been made to place these individuals into care. The Ministry of Health and Wellness will once again remind everyone that we are all susceptible to the virus. However, there are persons who are at greater risk, such as the elderly and those living with chronic and underlying medical conditions. Therefore, we all have to play our part to protect the health and safety of our families, our friends, our colleagues and our neighbours. Let us all continue to take personal responsibility and adhere to the protocols and guidelines for the prevention of the virus. Let us continue to practice the infection prevention and control guidelines that will help to reduce exposure to the virus. Wash and sanitise your hands often during the day. Ensure face mask is used whenever you are out in public and ensure that it covers your mouth and your nose. Sanitise frequently touched surfaces often using a bleach solution. Maintain the separation of 6 feet from others, which is about 2 arms length apart. And if you are experiencing flu-like symptoms, keep away from others and seek medical care immediately at the closest respiratory clinic. Also avoid contact with other persons who have flu-like symptoms.
