COVID-19 And the Elderly In Jamaica

As the community spread phase of the COVID-19 outbreak begins, more emphasis has to be placed on protecting the most vulnerable including seniors and those with pre-existing conditions.

To discuss the strategies we are joined by Professor Denise Eldermire-Shearer from the aging and wellness centre at the UWI, and to discuss the impact of the COVID-19 on community groups and the elderly we are joined by Julian Mckoy-Davis Lecturer at the University of the West Indies.
