There is an infection in the fire service as well.

It has led to a shutdown of an entire department at the Fire Service Headquarters on Wrightson Road in Port of Spain.

The infected officer’s colleagues are now in self-quarantine.

Reports are saying that 5 officers have been infected, but yesterday President of the Fire Service Association Leo Ramkissoon denied the claim.

When contacted yesterday, Fire Chief Marlon Smith said steps have been taken to sanitize the building and ensure the health and well being of officers.

Yesterday afternoon the Ministry of Health said 3 more people tested positive for the virus bring the tally to 210
