<snip>
Jamaica now has 469 confirmed cases of COVID-19. There were six new cases in the last 24 hours.

Sadly, another Jamaican, a 72-year-old male has died because of the virus. This brings the tally of deaths to nine.

Jamaica now has 35 imported cases; 161 are contacts of a confirmed case; nine are local transmission cases not epidemiologically-linked, and 264 are under investigation.

Two hundred and sixteen (216) of those under investigation are linked to the business process outsourcing entity Alorica, located in Portmore, St Catherine.

Of all the cases in Jamaica, 290 (62%) are females and 179 (38%) are males. The ages of all the confirmed cases range from two months to 87 years.

Jamaicans at home and abroad refer to home as their Yard so yard is one's home or the entire island.

I do, however, like the other type of plant as well.

Planting is fun, in all forms, it satisfies.
