Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Simone Keizer-Beache is advising persons who have recovered from COVID19 to conduct full medical checkups to ensure that they are not affected by other medical issues after COVID19.
Dr. Keizer-Beache told NBC News that the Ministry of Health has observed a trend where some people who previously tested positive for COVID19 are having Kidney issues.
Dr. Keizer-Beache said St. Vincent and the Grenadines had high rates of Non-Communicable Diseases (NCD’s) before the COVID19 Pandemic and this issue can be addressed through early detection.
