Alliance For Change (AFC) executive Valerie Garrido-Lowe yesterday called on the Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony, to ensure that persons who worked temporarily at the Kumaka District Hospital (KDH) during the period that the Moruca sub-district was a COVID-19 hotspot are paid for the work that they had done.
During the AFC’s weekly virtual press conference yesterday, Garrido-Lowe noted that at the end of June, 2020, Santa Rosa, Moruca, was declared the hot-spot for COVID-19, and with so many person testing positive for the virus, there was an urgent need for more staff, which was requested for by KDH.
