Prime Minister Mark Phillips through his office will be collaborating with Junior Chambers International (JCI) Guyana in a campaign to encourage the public to adhere to the COVID-19 guidelines and to get vaccinated against the virus, the Department of Public Information (DPI) has reported.
Phillips on Friday afternoon met with the President of JCI Guyana Kestine King, JCI Vice President of Projects and Community Development Deshawn Walcott and JCI Senator/Advisor Kevin Cornette.
According to a DPI report, Phillips said that the meeting was timely since the government started to vaccinate young adults (18 years of age and above). He noted that the partnership was important since the idea is to encourage as many persons as possible to take the vaccine and adhere to the regulations.
