This is despite the fact that this was a common practice under the previous administration whenever blood testing had to be done for crime fighting or health care purposes.In light of this, Rohee was roasted about his party’s performance in the public health sector while in Government.Responding to queries about the PPP record with developing the country’s health care sector, Rohee said, “There is the famous adage, the king is dead, long live the king,” he said. “That means that when a government changes you (new government) inherit all that was done,Authentic Jerseys Sale, all that was not done and all that was partly done.”“I find it interesting for persons, whenever challenging issues are raised, to turn to the performance of the PPP in order to justify why something is not being done.”When pressed to answer the question directly, however, Rohee refused to comment further.During his address, Dr. Norton had indicated that on Tuesday (January 12), his Ministry was informed by the Caribbean Public Health Agency’s Laboratory in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, that it had detected the presence of the Zika Virus in a sample of blood from Guyana. The sample was taken on January 4, 2016.Dr. Norton had stated that the virus was detected in a 27-year-old female who hails from Rose Hall, Corentyne, Berbice, but also resides at Covent Garden, East Bank Demerara. The Minister had also given assurances that there have been checks to ascertain the condition of the patient and family members.In addition to fogging and larvicidal treatment methods in the patient’s area, the Minister had related that fogging exercises were proceeding apace in Region Four, as well as household inspections, education drives and the distribution of long lasting insecticide- treated bed nets to pregnant mothers and households with children under five years old.While studies are ongoing and are being planned to educate people about the virus, evidence is growing that it may cause the catastrophic birth defect called microcephaly (reduced brain size).  In 2015, Zika virus RNA was detected in the amniotic fluid of two fetuses, which indicates that it crossed the placental barrier and that fetal infection is possible.In December 2015, the PAHO/WHO noted that the transmission of Zika virus infection had occurred within nine countries— Brazil, Chile (specifically Easter Island), Colombia,Jerseys From China, El Salvador, Guatemala,Arizona Diamondbacks Gregor Blanco Jersey, Mexico, Paraguay, Suriname and Venezuela.
