incidents during an eight-hour period

He said there is a better way for
young people to embrace the opportunities
being created in
the country and stop
the unnecessary killings.
Police have launched
an investigation into
the murders of two men from the East
Coast village of Dennery, in the second
double murder within a 24-hour
period.
The shootings followed the recent
double in the Southern village of Jackmel,
in a drive by shooting.
TRINIDAD
Three Caribbean countries have
come to the aid of Trinidad and Tobago
by donating 34,000 doses of vaccines.
St. Vincent and the Grenadines gifted
16, 000 AstraZeneca, while 8,000
came from Bermuda and 10.000 from
Grenada.
These vaccines will be added to the
government’s nationwide vaccine roll
out.M
inister of Foreign Affairs, Dr. Amery
Browne that the vaccines from St. Vincent
and the Grenadines are set to
expire at the end of June. The minister
of health has indicated that it would
be enough time to get the jabs distributed.
According to regional reports nationals
of St Vincent and the Grenadines
are refusing to accept the AstraZeneca
vaccine and this was enough to force
St. Vincent and the Grenadines to the
Russian-made Sputnik vaccine.
Prime Minister Dr. Ralph Gonsalves
was inoculated with the
Russian vaccine.
Sputnik does not have
World Health Organization
(WHO) approval.
Browne said there was some vaccine
hesitancy, particularly in some of the
smaller islands in the region and no
island wants to end up with vaccines
that would have to be discarded.
Dr. Browne said the receipt of 10,000
vaccines from Grenada is just another
symbol of CARICOM diplomacy in
action and the generosity of the people
of Grenada.
