T&T recorded 179 confirmed COVID-19 cases with 31 fatalities between October 1st 2023 and February 29th 2024.

He said these people were elderly people and people who suffered from co-morbidities such as diabetes and hypertension.
Referring to a World Health Organization (WHO) report, Deyalsingh said healthcare leaders worldwide “are having increasing trouble to try to get their populations to adopt healthy lifestyles.”
He added that this was something which helped to improve people’s health and resist viruses such as covid19.
