Grenada’s Assistant Superintendent of Police Leroy Joseph who is Head of the Immigration Department said that for the first 5 months of 2021, Grenada is recording a steady increase in the number of illegal immigrants from the South American nations of Venezuela, Panama and Columbia.

Immigration authorities are not certain as to the reason behind the steady increase of illegal entry.

Grenadian health authorities are overly concerned that individuals who are entering the country illegally could be putting the country at risk for a Covid-19 outbreak.

Usually, these individuals do not know their Covid-19 status and one positive case can result in a cluster followed by community spread of the virus.
