Hanover is now the only parish without a confirmed case of the coronavirus in Jamaica.

For more than a week, Trelawny and St Thomas were also without confirmed cases.

However, they recorded their first cases today.

Based on the latest parish breakdown, St Catherine has recorded the most cases with a tally of 58.

That's almost half of the 143 COVID-19 cases in Jamaica.

There have been five deaths.

Meanwhile, St Catherine is under a seven-day lockdown scheduled to end on April 22. 

However, Prime Minister Andrew Holness says it may be extended to 14 days.

Up to yesterday, there were 1,424 tests but that figure is likely to soar with expanded testing to start tomorrow.
