The Ministry of Health is working to increase the number of COVID-19 vaccination sites in the country and has disclosed that it is also establishing locations for persons with HIV to receive their shots.
This was stated by Health Minister, Dr Frank Anthony yesterday during his daily COVID-19 update where he informed that one issue that the authorities have uncovered is that persons who are HIV+ did not feel comfortable going to the regular vaccination sites.
“As of this week we have been working with the national [HIV] care and treatment site here in Georgetown to make that also into a vaccination site,” Anthony noted, adding that that process should begin this week.
