(Trinidad Express) Lurking among gatherings of people, there can be a super-spreader of the Covid-19 virus, who can transmit the virus exponentially to large numbers of the population.
Dr Hinds said that the public should not delude themselves to think there were no Covid-19 virus cases existing among the population.
As we roll those measures back there is the possibility that anyone who has mild illness wandering around the population can wander into a crowded space, such as a small business place without good ventilation, lines where people are less than six feet apart – these are the concerns that keep us up at night”, he said.
Dr Hinds said the Ministry of Health continued to encourage people with flu-like symptoms to come forward for testing of the Coronavirus.
We are encouraging persons with any kind of viral illness to come into health facilities for testing so that we don’t miss new cases.
