There’s been no information of any major incidents, and, it could well be that the signs point in the direction of a rather serene occasion, surrounding the festivity.
As the Nation gets back to work, the Ministry of Health remains on the ball and has drawn up a schedule concerning its COVID vaccination programme for the month of April, undertaking to ensure that a majority of Grenadians are vaccinated against the virus.
This week vaccination locations centre around the Radisson Resort and the Stadium.
Today, the Radisson Resort was the centre authorized for COVID vaccinations and tomorrow will be at the Stadium, and Thursday the Radisson Resort.
On Friday and Saturday, vaccinations will be conducted at both locations, the Radisson Resort and the Stadium.
The exercise will be conducted between the hours of nine in the morning and two in the afternoon.
