Meanwhile, prisons hospitalized covid-19 patients across the country are 141 and 131 inmates have so far fully recovered from the disease.

Baine has appealed to members of the public to stay vigilant and observe guidelines put in place to stem the spread of Covid-19 because they will not hesitate to accommodate them in prison once arrested.
