The Ministry of Health and Wellness is currently investigating suspected cases of an infectious skin disease in a section of the population at the St Michael District Hospital, also known as the Geriatric Hospital.
The ministry said it is using all available resources at its disposal, both within the public and private sectors to identify, treat and eradicate the problem at the Beckles Road, St Michael facility.
To contain any spread, the ministry has suspended visiting by members of the public to Units 1 and 2 of the hospital, until further notice.
