Prime Minister Andrew Holness, his wife, Member of Parliament, Juliet Holness as well as Opposition Leader Mark Golding, received their first dose of the COVID-19 AstraZeneca vaccine on Monday, March 22 at the Good Samaritan Inn, in Downtown Kingston.

The politicians took their jab ahead of schedule and on the heels of a barrage of stricter COVID-19 measures, as the government grapples with the daily record COVID-19 infections.

Prime Minister Holness is encouraging Jamaicans to take the vaccine when their time comes. But in the meantime, he’s urging citizens to adhere to the safety protocols
