During Monday's Cabinet press briefing, Health Minister Moses Jn Baptiste said the full commissioning of the rebuilt St Jude Hospital, initially expected to be completed by the end of July, will not meet that deadline.Jn Baptiste said work at the site is still ongoing."We are coming to the end of July, and we have not completely transitioned our hospital," Jn Baptiste stated. "The commissioning team will obviously require a few more weeks, but they are working feverishly and safely to ensure that we cause there to be a safe environment at the St Jude Hospital."
