Ma Comrades, how's it possible for any member PopoulacesOrdinary at-large not to finish reading this newest press release by the colony's health ministry. and not grown that more coronavirus nervous than you already were before you read it. Nod once for yeah, twice for no?

Can anyone say the average number of documented deaths recorded in this Country annually due to severe cases of other influenza/Corona type viruses or complications stemming from same? One ASSUMES Dr Sands has this answer.........

Typically we can expect 400 cases of 'flu per year and about 50 deaths.

… medical statistics in this country are unreliable because of undertesting (which we are also seeing in this crisis as well) and underreporting. I would bet that public and private clinics in Nassau or GB or Acklins, San Salvador or Eleuthera do not test or report flu cases and any deaths would be classified as something else.

Apart from the infection it would be nice to know if all these deaths had anything else in common or what happened between the time they were diagnosed and died!

Doctor Sands you are messing up big time. I use to believe you were one of the smart ones

Wicked?? But smart.

"Dr Sands said the remaining 39 patients at the Robert Smith Unit at Sandilands were immediately placed in isolation and the unit was sanitised. Forty-six staff members at Sandilands were identified for risk exposure assessment."

I appreciate the transparency in this situation. This is needed more; especially if some of the people in quarantine are "essential workers". You don't have to give names but, the stores and locations should be public information.

"*President Donald Trump suggested the possibility of an “injection” of disinfectant into a person infected with coronavirus as a coronavirus deterrent at the White House daily briefing on Thursday.*"

Somebody get this information to Dr Minnis immeduately. This could be the cure right here. Don't try to go through Sr Sands he may dismiss it as absolute rubbish, Dr Minnis will see to it that a proper investigation is conducted

I was very impressed with the tone today. They dropped the the *lockdown is working* language, they didn't talk about *people driving up and down* as the cause for the spread and they acknowledged that the infection rate is increasing. Most impressive they acknowledged that the situation at the hospital called for a review of procedure which has already started. You can only get to solutions if you look at what "is". I think they did a great job with a pretty difficult situation. Nobody expects perfection or for persons not to make mistakes...just be open, transparent and involve knowledgeable people, we know its a difficult job

**No telling if PopoulancesOrdinary goin' jumps back 6 Foots to stand in stunned silence** once the comrade Imperialists RedShirts** elected's Pandora's Box** lid gets post coronavirus lifted. There's no telling what unknown red kinds viruses going sprung out. Nod once for yeah, twice for no?

#assified

But scientists are already saying this isnt the last one or the most deadly that the world will face

Thank you Francis_James.. Thank God we don't have a flu pandemic EVERY year! I do realize this one is particularly nasty, like Dorian, let's hope it's not a trend setter..
