Health Minister Dr Frank Anthony on Tuesday said that the government was pleased to have been able to donate COVID-19 vaccines to Barbados while stating that the ministry is grateful for its collaborations with other governments.
Anthony made these remarks during the COVID-19 update days after the Barbadian Prime Minister Mia Mottley had made the announcement in Bridgetown of the donation of 5,000 doses from Guyana.
“We are happy to extend these vaccines to Barbados because they have helped us to kickstart our vaccination programme and we’re just happy to assist in whatever way we can,” Anthony said while adding that they are open to helping other countries across the region as long as Guyana is able to.
