  1. Give the people more nourishment and they will not have to be going to the hospital πŸ˜ŽπŸ˜€πŸ’ͺπŸΎπŸ‘€β€οΈ

  2. Why the hospital running out of beds What happened to all the money the Government get from the US. see what happen when Covid hit please take care of our Hospitals with the Equipment needed.

    1. ​@Marrie Wow πŸ‘ you must be Condrew Hopeless Mattress? Are you his side 😳 chick 🚺? You are very defensive about him.

  3. Mr Chin ,I am disappointed to know that that This Government have dropped the ball after 7 years in office the medical situation in Jamaica hospitals have gotten worse, The poor people are crying out for equal rights & Justice

  4. Why Wayne Chen is in that position ? Someone else could have had it with more experience not because of family connections or he is positioning himself for future minister of health then prime minister

    1. That’s none of your business, you people love to criticize others too much and I’m sure you could not manage such position.

  5. We blame Covid for the deficiencies in the Jamaican health care system .
    Now that Covid has taken a vacation, the infrastructure in JA is still woefully inadequate.
    Crime , violence and metabolic diseases are keeping the hospitals busy beyond capacity.

  6. As a health care worker here in the USA, many of the issues facing Jamaica’s health care infrastructure are similar to the ones we face here in the USA. Preventive medicine, access to ambulatory care, community health and health education are some of the ways to alleviate the strain on the hospital/healthcare systems. When people don’t have access to primary care they turn to the ED and hospital as primary care centers. So instead of seeing real sick patients those beds are taken up people who don’t have any access to healthcare. As for the point of accidents, trauma and a crime riddled society hemorrhaging our hospital – those are real issues. Billions are spent patching up criminals and those driving recklessly on our roads instead of the people that need healthcare for chronic and acute issues😒
