2) Financial inclusion cuts across many development issues by enabling things like government payments, loans, insurance and savings.
3) True development requires scaling up efforts beyond small programs to reach universality, which requires both the public and private sectors working together.
4) Analyzing issues of supply and demand is important for partnerships, such as ensuring stable infrastructure, regulations, affordable costs and products people

The document announces a 24-hour lockdown by the Prime Minister and his cabinet to contain the spread of COVID-19 in the country. It acknowledges that the lockdown will cause difficulties but is a necessary step. It calls for special arrangements to address the needs of communities without bathroom facilities, farmers, fishers, the elderly and disabled. It suggests amendments like designating days for supermarkets and gas stations to open with security to allow social distancing. While special considerations are needed, people must still follow health guidelines. The opposition party pledges cooperation with the government against the virus.
The document summarizes the connections between maternal health and child mortality. It states that babies whose mothers have died during childbirth have a much greater chance of dying in their first year than babies whose mothers survive. It also notes that in developing countries, pregnant mothers often lack adequate facilities, nutrition, clean water, and are more susceptible to infectious germs, all of which can negatively impact the health of the fetus and newborn child. Therefore, if a mother does not receive necessary support and care during pregnancy, her child is more likely to have health problems or not survive at all.
This survey was conducted online in Uganda using Facebook and Twitter to understand how Ugandans receive information about COVID-19. Most respondents were male (72.4%), with an average age of 33.

Respondents found the information generally informative but wanted more assurance through hope, prevention/care details, and consistent truthful updates.

STATEMENT BY LEADER OF THE OPPOSITION
HON PHILIP J PIERRE ON CORONA VIRUS
AT THE SAINT LUCIA LABOUR PARTY’S PRESS CONFERENCE
THURSDAY, MARCH 5 2020
On March 1st, 2020 I was in discussion with a regional colleague about the state of
preparation of the region to deal with the Coronavirus. The colleague was attending the
CARICOM Heads of Government Meeting which was taking place. I felt it important that I
be kept informed of matters relating to how this critical matter was being addressed. During
the discussion the colleague indicated that the Prime Minister of Saint Lucia was not present.
I responded that I thought he was attending and was surprised that he was not present. At the
conclusion of the meeting I called the person to find out what were the conclusions of the
meeting. Again was told that the Prime Minister was not present. I was later informed that if
he was present it was for a short period at the start of the meeting but he was not there for the
substantive part or the press conference.
I have never practiced the spread of rumors and lies. My reference to the absence of the
Prime Minister was to highlight the lack of sufficient attention that our Government is giving
at a policy level to addressing the Coronavirus. To the extent that anyone feels that I misled
them I must humbly state that was not my intention. I felt and still feel that for a meeting of
such importance, the Prime Minister should have been there throughout and I acted on the
information that I had at the time.
However we need to move on beyond whether he was there or not. I have been bombarded
with questions on the state of preparedness of our country to address the Coronavirus. That
itself says a lot about our state of preparedness. I have no doubt that the medical professionals
and technical people are trying their very best and are trying to achieve world class standards
of preparation. Yet there are some critical policy issues which I want to address to the Prime
Minister on the behalf of the people of Saint Lucia. I shall focus on the children and elderly,
as they are the two most vulnerable groups.
2. 2 | P a g e
1. Does Saint Lucia possess any on shore testing facilities for the virus to make
informed and science driven decisions?
2. Can the Prime Minister release a National Plan of Action that provides as
comprehensive as possible how we will respond to any severity in cases; in particular
3. What are plans for the elderly? Is there any special training for home caregivers and
additional support to make sure our elderly receives that highest level priority?
4. What are the plans for the homeless and people who are on the streets?
5. Are the schools being provided with soap and other disinfectants and ensure there
is a constant supply of water at all schools in the event of an outbreak?
6. If there is an outbreak, at what point will schools be closed?
7. If there is an outbreak and schools are closed what happened to students who will
be sitting CSEC and CAPE exams?
8. If there is an outbreak at a Ministry, what would be the response? Do we have a
public service response plan?
These are some of the questions that the public have been asking me as Leader of the
Opposition. I trust that as policy questions, the Prime Minister can respond.
I ask some other questions.
1. Are our medical personnel adequately equipped with protective gear and other
equipment?
2. Have we organized adequate isolation and quarantine facilities?
3. Is there adequate monitoring at all points of entry.
4. Has the government prepared a substantial information dissemination plan for the
public?
5. How is our cruise industry being affected by the absence of testing equipment in
Saint Lucia?
6. Is it true that Carnival Fascination has cancelled visits to Saint Lucia for the next 2
months at a minimum?
I thank you.
END.
