The St. Vincent and the Grenadines Hotel & Tourism Association continues to work closely with The Covid-19 Task Force in its efforts to keep Nationals and Visitors updated, educated and safe.
The association, in conjunction with the health authorities, developed a programme which aims to increase awareness, acceptance and actual vaccination among Tourism and Hospitality workers. This was officially launched on Tuesday 24th August, 2021 in Bequia at the Frangipani Hotel.
42 participants were involved in 2 highly interactive sessions which were conducted by Sharon Francis, Community College Tourism and Hospitality Lecturer and a member of the SVGHTA, and Elliott Samuel, Chief Laboratory Technologist, Milton Cato Memorial Hospital.
Former Prime Minister, Sir James Mitchell, who participated in the first session, complimented the presenters and encouraged participants to get fully vaccinated, as they work together to help the industry to fully reopen.
The association via an official release said that the seminars will continue, while congratulating all of its industry partners who have so far become fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
