Officials announced today that they have intensified the transformation effort at the old Holberton Hospital to prepare it for suspected cases of the Coronavirus.
The Ministry of Health started work on the facility last month and continues to prepare it as cases of the coronavirus grow in number.
On Monday, Health Minister-Molwyn Joseph and a number of workers and technicians toured the retrofitted Margetson Ward as well as the former Casualty Department and X-Ray area.
The re-design of the purpose built areas is being undertaken by architect Phillip Isaac Jr.
So far there are no suspected or conformed case of the virus on island.

Where was the Ebola quarantined quarters at Holberton?
Why wasn’t it used?
listen here I am lost so the place had to be retrofitted differently from ebola to suit corona?
something is wrong with this picture.
By the way the machine that was purchased to test for elevated temperature at the airport, where is it, and why isn’t it at the location where it is needed? This is some confusing mess.
Wait journalist do not ask obvious questions and so? journalist do not remember things and do research before press conference and so.
Geezz this is why these people thrive because journalist do not link things an ask hard questions. Journalist need to listen to BBC hard talk to understand how to treat these people the opportunity avails.
Why is this facility been planned next to the Hospice which has sick and old persons , Fiennes also old and sick people and the newly built housing for young kids !! Does this make sense ????
Not at all ..Doesn’t make sense!
