Grenada, st. George's: Grenada Health ministry has recorded four new cases of COVID19 in the country. The reason for taking as a serious concern is that it has been a transmission from the previous two positive points, which is a threat to community transmission.

Health ministry also stated that nothing to worry much four new cases, as well as the seven reported previously, have all been in quarantine, and tested as per Grenada's rules.

The Ministry proceeds to be inspired by the level of care and alertness performed by the frontline team, including health specialists, Royal Grenada Police Force, Contact Tracers and the Airport and Seaport staff, who continue to practice their duties with the highest levels of due diligence, care, attention and patriotism. Together, they actively protect Grenada's borders; impose quarantine orders and aggressively source contacts, if there is external exposure.

Ministry also clarified that all eleven active cases have come from the foreigners, and there is currently no proof of local or community spread in the tri-island state of Grenada.

The Ministry of Health maintains to review and harden its procedures to meet the ever-changing and demanding nature of Covid-19. Health ministry also requested to the people that the public must also continue to exercise warning and obey the health and safety guidelines, which has been given by the government. Because the virus is random, at any moment, any breach or public display to the virus can have potentially destructive effects on the population.

The safety measures continuously encouraged by the Ministry are the most efficient means of protection against Covid-19. Recent data from the WHO show that if 95% of the people around the world use masks or face covers over the nose and mouth, there would likely be no need for lockdowns.

Imagine how much more controlled the spread of the virus would be if everyone were to also practice good hygiene, ensure physical distancing of at least 6 feet from others who are not in their households, avoid large gatherings, and comply with quarantine and isolation measures, as mandated.
