A meeting is now underway between the St James Public Health Services and the Mayor of Montego Bay, Richard Vernon after a viral video surfaced over the weekend of a female vendor carrying out an unhygienic act at the Charles Gordon Market in the parish.

A team from the St James Health Services has reportedly met with the vendor since the video surfaced. 

However, a follow-up meeting is expected today, September 2, in which the vendor will be advised of the outcome of her actions.

There has been much public outrage after the female was caught on camera urinating in a half-cut plastic container in a parked motor vehicle. She then poured the urine into another plastic bottle before placing it under her apron.

The female vendor is said to operate a stall at the market where she reportedly sells ground provisions.

A similar incident occurred in the corporate area last year with the infamous Alice Waugh, who came into public glare after a viral video surfaced on social media showing the crab vendor carrying out an unhygienic act in a stall at Crab Circle.
