– Public Health Minister says “we are extremely lucky”“I think it is a question of luck; we are extremely lucky,” said Minister of Public Health, Dr George Norton,Minister of Public Health,Bayern M?nchen Trikot 2019, Dr George Nortonof the fact that Guyana has not yet been faced with a case of a pregnant woman infected with the Zika Virus.The local Ministry of Health has thus far been able to confirm five positive cases of the virus – two men and three women (none of whom were with child at the time of the being tested).The mosquito transmitted virus has been linked to birth defects such as microcephaly which has been occurring in alarming proportions in Brazil – Guyana’s neighbour to the south. But despite the proximity to Brazil which has recorded worrying numbers of the Zika Virus,NFL Jerseys Wholesale, Minister Norton that his Ministry is not very worried about the interactions between Guyana and Brazil.“One visits Lethem and one sees the number of Brazilians there are, yet there is hardly any case of Zika. But we are worried more about Suriname because what we have learnt is that persons who have tested positive had some exposure to Suriname…so we are thinking the problem for us is Suriname and not Brazil really.” Suriname is Guyana’s neighbour to the east.It is believed that if a pregnant woman is infected with the virus during the first trimester her baby is likely to be born with microcephaly,Jerseys NFL China, an abnormal smallness of the head.But according to recent disclosures by Director-General of the World Health Organisation, Ms. Margaret Chan,Wholesale NFL Jerseys, there seems to be indications that the microcephaly is now only one of several birth defects.

ROSE HALL TOWN, CORENTYNE – There may soon be a resolution to the war brewing between the Rose Hall Interim Management Committee (IMC) and the Rose Hall Town Anniversary Committee.
