As per the National Epimdemiologist Dr Shlauddin Ahmed, Dominica has not recorded any local coronavirus case for months, and the recently recovered patients were all imported.
The triumph of being a COVID-19 free nation came for Dominica after the government implemented strict limitations that included mandatory testing at all ports of entry, 14 quarantine and submission of a negative RT-PCR COVID-19 report, not more than 72-hours old prior to entry. Not only that, Dominica was among the first countries in the Caribbean to receive coronavirus vaccine as India provided 70,000 doses of Astrazeneca Oxford vaccine manufactured by the Serum Institute of India. Later, 20,000 doses of the Sinopharm vaccine were donated by the People's Republic of China and PM Skerrit's wife, Melissa Skerrit, received the first dose of the Chinese vaccine. Dominica also received additional 28,800 doses from the COVAX facility. Even though there are currently no active cases of COVID-19 in Dominica, the government have advised people to exercise caution and wear face masks and maintain a 6-feet distance in public places.With no active coronavirus cases, Dominica has achieved what big economies across the world are striving to get.
