A day after the last flight of UK visitors arrived in Jamaica the country’s Chief Medical Officer (CMO) says the decision to ban the flights was guided by Jamaica’s own history with the pandemic to date.
She says regional hospitals are nearly at capacity and the earlier than anticipated spike in new cases ahead of Christmas were factors considered.
While no cases have been detected among any of the passengers so far, the CMO is urging continued compliance.
