I'm really disturbed and concerned, said Ebanks, who will now have to seek private treatment at a cost that, she said, could reach 350,000 Jamaican dollars (about 1,600).

This challenge is public health, and that is something we've been failing at for a damn long time.
"The Department's action makes clear that legal processes have not been followed.
