COVID-19 Update-April 27

Dear Colleagues,

I hope that everyone had a good weekend.

Here is the current COVID-19 data for the Caribbean:

COVID-19 data as at April 26th

Here are a few links that highlight new developments worldwide:

• BBC: Coronavirus: New Zealand claims no community cases as lockdown eases– Using testing and tracing to guide their decisions.
• MSN: Why the World’s Highest Virus Death Rate Is in Europe’s Capital-Highlights the large variations in how data is recorded. There seems to be no standard method adopted worldwide.
• Al Jazeera: “Counting the Cost”-Senegal’s response to Covid-19

I am sure you do your own scanning. I share a few each day. CARICOM, IADB, OECD have information that relates to the Caribbean. As a base, the WHO gives updates worldwide.

Remember to check the Resources page on our website for key links.

Thank you.
