THE Prime Minister and Health Minister Dr Lackram Bodoe have offered their condolences on the death of Jasher Francois, six, who passed away at the San Fernando Teaching Hospital after being brought in by his mother for a cough.
The Health Ministry in a release on August 8 said "a full and urgent investigation" will be done into the circumstances of Jasher's death. The ministry's releases follows an earlier statement from the South West Regional Health Authority (SWRHA) that it is also probing the medical case.
"The Prime Minister and Minister of Health extends deepest condolences to the Francois family on the passing of six-year-old Jasher Francois and recognises the profound pain of losing a child and extends sincere wishes for comfort and resilience during this time of grief," the ministry stated.
