In just over a month, people from all over the world will come to Trinidad and Tobago for the greatest show on earth. But if you’ve literally got the Carnival fever right now, well, it may be more than just the rum and Coca-Cola to blame for that.
That’s right. It is flu season here in T&T, and with social distancing all but a relic of the pandemic era, the Ministry of Health is urging the population to get vaccinated.
The warning comes as flu cases surge in the United States and doctor visits there spike to their highest levels since 1997.
