THE business community is welcoming news from the Ministry of Health and Wellness that once they consistently observe the protocols in their daily operations, they are not mandated to close their doors if employees become exposed to the virus.

In recent weeks, buisnesses have been increasingly reporting that they are closing for a day or two for sanitisation and deep cleaning.

But at a digital press conference last week, chief medical officer, Dr Jacqueline Bisasor-McKenzie, communicated that under the updated infection prevention and control guidelines necessitated by the community spread of the virus, more frequent cleaning is more efficient at slowing the spread.
