Minister Mckenzie says while the pandemic has brought many challenges across all sectors of society, citizens must also take responsibility. He also stressed the importance of vaccination.
The Minister alluded to the restrictions recently imposed in Austria due to the high vaccine hesitancy. He notes while extreme measures to date have not been taken in Jamaica, persons who are vaccinated should not face the consequences of the un-vaccinated.
