Assuming the food shopping schedule proposed here has been agreed as workable with the food store owners, and there will be a police presence at the major food stores to ensure orderly behaviour and compliance with the rules, then this should be a reasonable solution for New Providence.

Obviously the number of customers allowed in each food store at any one time will need to be limited based of the size (square footage) of the store in order to ensure adherence to the six foot physical distancing rule as much as possible. Once the maximum allowable number of customers in the store has been achieved, then others should only be allowed in the store on a one-for-one basis as shoppers exit the store in order to keep the total number of shoppers in the store constant.

This is a good start but will require a police presence to keep law and order by properly arresting belligerent offenders.

Wonder how the many still without power and water on Grand Bahama and Abaco are expected to cope......

With no mention of Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays I assume that the weekend lockdown will continue.

Correction: with no mention of Saturdays and Sundays..

The colony of out islands Saturday and Sunday shopping has now forever gone way it is in North Korea, well stocked out stores and with lots soft and easy on ass Toilet-papers on shelves, reserved exclusively for government officials and Nkorean and foreigner elite shoppers who proudly display the face of **Dear Leader Comrade Kim Jong Doc, Doc.** proudly stitched into they brungs ya own cloth shopping bags. Can't just make these **loony tune shop by letters** kinds stuff up. Just, **can't.** Nod once for yeah, twice for no?

"*loony tune shop by letters kinds stuff up.*"

lol

Ma Comrade ThisIs, I respect government has to make tough calls but not at the level 10 year.playing game checkers.The widowmaker coronoavirus, demands a grand master's discipline brought game chess.

DDK: Very kind of you to express concern about the suffering people of Abaco and Grand Bahama. The remainder of the country is beginning to feel the effects of what is called a national emergency that appears to be driving us backwards economically. How far back we will go is yet to be seen. However, the good people of Abaco and Grand Bahama are fully aware of the extent of the severe damage inflicted upon them. Think about power lines in your residential areas still on the ground 7 months after the storm. People buy ice from the food store sometimes every other day and hope that their generator continues to run and that they can continue to afford fuel for it.

Considering they closed the food stores without notice, they should have started this schedule on Tuesday. This means people who may not have had food for the past 48 hour must now wait til Wednesday to get in the food stores

I guess this goes also for the moms and pops food stores as well

This is a very radical move I believe a more workable solution is to make it mandatory for everyone to wear mask. Society cannot stay locked down forever

Fine idea for Nassau..bad idea for small communities in Abaco and grand Bahama where a lot oof people have the same few last names. Crowds the store for some times and makes it empty in others.

Absolutely correct — on Eleuthera, half the people are named Bethel, Cooper or Culmer. Gonna be a mess on ABC days ...

That's good person have expressed consideration for Abaco and Grand Bahama. Another important and yet crucial fact to note is that if the COVID-19 virus is not already here in **Long Island,** the only vulnerable means by which it can come into Long Island is through the weekly mail boat services coming in to Long Island from Nassau. The crew members would have interacted with their families and communities in Nassau, albeit, to a limited extent.

I suggested to the Government, the Island's M.P. and the relevant Ministry to arrange to have the crew members of the mail boats tested for the COVID-19 virus before embarking on voyages to the Family Islands, in particular, Long Island.

Whether they would listen and take heed would be a serious matter for them if there is a consequential outbreak. Like the P.M. said, "hard head bird don't make good soup".

OK, what about folks who lost their documents in Dorian and can't prove that there name is Abel Aaron? Pity the person named Zoltan Zyzov.
