Cannabis patients in Jamaica no longer have to wait in line or risk rubbing shoulders with strangers when buying their medicine, which should reduce their chances of catching or spreading COVID-19.<\/p>\n
Last week, Jamaica\u2019s Cannabis Licensing Authority (CLA) and the Ministry of Industry, Commerce, Agriculture, and Fisheries announced new rules<\/u><\/a> for keeping pot shops \u2014 or \u201cherb houses\u201d \u2014 open for business while minimizing the public\u2019s exposure to the novel coronavirus.<\/p>\n Here\u2019s how the new online ordering sitch for weed works. If you\u2019re a patient, you can only make an online order at an herb house that you\u2019re registered to and have already visited at least once in person.<\/p>\n Licensed business owners, on the other hand, were urged by the CLA to maintain and preserve all documentation, including government-issued photo IDs of employees and patients, as well as patients\u2019 prescription or recommendation documents from medical practitioners. <\/p>\n Additionally, herb houses must keep track of their inventory at all times. Inventory quantities and weights must be regularly reported to the CLA.<\/p>\n
