Trinidadian health authorities say that one case of the COVID-19 Delta variant recorded was someone who travelled from Guyana but the Ministry of Health here has not been able to confirm cases of any variants through testing.
The Trinidad Ministry of Health disclosed on Wednesday that two additional cases of the COVID-19 delta variant were confirmed, taking their total up to five. That fifth patient was an individual who had returned to Trinidad from Guyana.
When Stabroek News asked Minister of Health, Dr Frank Anthony on the sidelines of an event whether local health authorities had received any notifications about the issue, he stated that he had only seen what was reported in the media earlier but they plan to investigate.
