Jamaica: Was Reopening the Borders the Right Move?

Two new deaths and rising COVID-19 cases have the nation’s concentration on COVID-19 waned? Was the reopening of the borders the right move? We knew the spike would come, but just how bad does it have to get before Prime Minister Andrew Holness considers reemploying stricter restrictions?

To discuss the current climate surrounding COVID-19 in the country we are joined by Dr. Peter Figueroa, Professor Public Health, Epidemiology and COVID, HIV AIDS UWI Mona.
