Now is the time where we must redouble all our efforts as a nation to bring the spread of the COVID-19 virus under control. The current phase requires each individual to take their health, security and safety into their own hands. This means: wear masks, wash your hands frequently and hand sanitize, and maintain social distancing of approximately 6ft. We are also imploring citizens to become situationally aware and make decisions about how, when, and with whom they move.

The Most Hon. Andrew Holness partnered with Progressive Grocers of Jamaica Foundation Ltd. through his Positive Jamaica Foundation to deliver care packages including, essential food items, and sanitizers to residents in his constituency during the holidays. The packages were in aid of those persons who are most vulnerable and those who lost their jobs and or source of income since the start of the pandemic COVID-19.
