As Jamaica sees a downward trend in the number of Covid-19 hospitalization, the President of the Nurses Association of Jamaica, Patsy Edwards-Henry, is however advising the public that there’s no correlation between hospitalization numbers and Covid positivity rate.

She asserts that even-though persons are not being admitted doesn’t mean the pandemic is over. She is encouraging citizens to be vigilant and protect themselves from the virus. More details here:
