Forde: Social media comments hurtful

Social Share Isolation Facilities manager Dr Corey Forde is urging Barbadians to appreciate and celebrate the Harrison Point facility and its staff, rather than try to tear them down. “As I read social media, it bothers me that people don’t read the whole story. It’s okay to disagree, but what we should not have is discourse which brings chaos,” he said during a media conference yesterday at the St Lucy facility. He was referring to some social media backlash regarding the facility apparently having a lack of linen. Forde explained the issue was due to a member of the laundry staff at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital being diagnosed with COVID-19. This resulted in a temporary shortage of clean linen but he said the situation was resolved within two hours.

Chief Medical Officer (CMO), Dr Kenneth George, made this plea today, as he disclosed that three children with the virus, had presented at the Winston Scott polyclinic, independently, with gastrointestinal symptoms.  He noted that those children had a “bit” of abdominal pain, and diarrhea, which was an unusual symptom for the virus. “At the beginning of the COVID outbreak and even now, we always said that children and teenagers have generally a good course and present without any symptoms.  Our experience, particularly in recent times, is that children are presenting with symptoms across the spectrum.
