“At this stage vaccination is critical to the long-term solution. We must ignore the noise, fake news and misinformation on the vaccine. I urge every person living in Tobago to take the vaccine and be part of the solution.”
“This first case, that we know of, after 30 days, shows how vulnerable we are at a moment’s notice. The Tobago public has been observing the protocols, now we just need to go one step forward and get vaccinated. Be practical, be proactive and be vaccinated. “
The Secretary also lauded the country’s management of the COVID-19 crisis: “We have been fortunate that our actions have kept this country safer than most.
