What have your experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system been like?
When we asked expats and global nomads in Saint Lucia about their experiences during the pandemic with the local healthcare system, they replied...
"The pandemic has had a significant impact on the local healthcare system in Saint Lucia. The government has implemented a number of measures to protect the health and safety of the population, including the closure of the borders, the introduction of a curfew, and the implementation of social distancing protocols. The healthcare system has also had to adapt to the new reality, with the introduction of telemedicine services, the expansion of testing capacity, and the implementation of contact tracing. Despite these efforts, the healthcare system has been stretched to its limits, with long wait times for appointments and limited access to medical supplies," explained one expat living in Saint Lucia.
