The difference is that children under 12 can’t stay home until the world find a vaccine for them. So use the same protocols for older students. School provides a much safer environment for learning including sifting thru disinformation about the vaccine.

Congrats to the Board of Management and Staff at Mona Prep for their contribution to the development of Jamaica for the past 60 years through the development of our children
This can’t be ignored. Serious times!

Happy Emancipation Day, Jamaica! Today, we honor the strength, resilience, and heritage of Jamaica as a nation and as a people. 🇯🇲
As we celebrate this historic day, let us continue to strive for unity, progress, and a brighter future for all Jamaicans.
There definitely needs to be constitutional guarantees for calling of elections.
There needs to be constitutional guarantees for the calling of elections. Holness must keep his word ab ending the corrupt practices of playing games with the people's rights. There never has been a PM so dishonest and untrue.

I had the honour of attending the media launch of "The Crowning," celebrating 60 years of Leroy Sibbles' incredible journey in the music industry. His contributions as a singer, songwriter, arranger, and bass player/composer are truly immense, and it was amazing to be part of this special occasion.

It was my pleasure to attend the recent anniversary celebration of the Cuban Revolution.
The People's National Party respects and values its longstanding relationship with the Cuban people, rooted in mutual respect.
As we commemorate this significant milestone, we look forward to many more years of enduring friendship and fruitful collaboration in areas such as education and health, fostering progress and unity between our nations.
¡Feliz Aniversario!

The DRMA has a revision provision in it and it has not been ever reviewed. I think having gone through both the COVID pandemic where that legislation was a mechanism that was used for responding then, and now the Beryl experience, we ought to see that review initiated.
I am told by disaster risk management experts and people who have experience in this field that there are concerns about the way the framework is being operated and we need to have that review done through a proper procedure in Parliament, a joint select committee reviewing the Act, as the Act itself has called for but has not been done.

We along with the BOJ have been sitting in Parliament since Noon for the Standing Finance Committee at which the BOJ is presenting.
This meeting is supposed to happen twice a year. All MPs, sitting as the Standing Finance Committee, get to question the Governor of the Bank of Jamaica and his team interest rates and monetary policy.
The meeting was supposed to start at 12 o’clock midday, but at 12:45 pm we still haven’t started because there’s no quorum. The quorum is 17 MPs, including the chairman. The only member of government present is Nigel Clarke.
Time Come for Good Governance.
This should be a matter of public interest!

In times of emergency it is important that we not just make a plan for ourselves but also that we make a plan for those we know are unable to help themselves.
So please ensure that the elderly or sick in your household, your neighbourhood or extended family also have everything in place.
Each one help one.

His uncle died yesterday for lack of a ventilator yet we have arguments from the CMO and Minister that we have adequate ventilators for the population. We have stooges on here cursing people for speaking out and trying to get them to deny reality. We deserve better.

“No evidence provided”… please see excerpts from reports from the Ministry of Health:
Opposition Spokesman on Health, Dr. Alfred Dawes is alleging that child and maternal mortality have climbed significantly due to the current JLP administration’s failures.
Dr. Dawes provided no evidence to support the claim.

The national average is 65% increase over 5 years in maternal deaths. This means hospitals are not properly resourced. In my neck of the woods, 1,000% increase. Any self-respecting professional would tender his or her resignation. And as I said, the HCWs r forced to stay silent

Don’t be distracted!
