COVID-19: The Implications of Community Spread

COVID-19: The Implications of Community Spread

Since the Emancipendence celebrations in early august, the number of fatal COVID cases has almost tripled, and on September 2, the day before the elections, government  declared community transmission of COVID-19. So will there be a spike as a result of the election campaigning? And what are the implications of community spread ?

To discuss these and other issues  we are joined by professor Peter Figueroa from the department of community health and psychiatry at UWI Mona.
