**He also confirmed these were the first two cases for Cat Island and both residents who contracted the virus have no recent travel history.**

Community spread has already started on Cat Island thanks to Hubert "Idiot" Minnis and his "Yes Men" opening our borders to the U.S, which are still open to private air and sea crafts!!

We can now assume that many more family islands will be reporting their first few cases within the coming days. **MINNIS HAS DOOMED US ALL!!!**

then they must have had contact with someone was is COVID-19 positive, some one in the community is COVID-19 positive

This name calling and blaming Pm Minnis is getting old.Try something new and constructive.

Did the idiotic PM not open our borders to the U.S? Or are you just as dumb and blind as your leader LMAO

Most Bahamians are saying that the PM are treating the Bahamians as if we are kids and that we are not kids we are grown adults. I agree are grown adults and we should not need any government official to spoon feed us and wipe our mouths as well. While the majority of responsible Bahamians made the decisions to cancel all of their vacations and travel abroad just to protect ourselves and our love one along with people who surround us. If we want say that we are adults we should act and be responsible like grown adults, no one force any person residing in the Bahamas to take a trip into a country that we all was full aware of had a major outbreak of that deadly virus. They would decided at their own will and freedom travelled at their own willed. Our problem as people are we never want take responsibility for our own actions but yet want blame blame blame, we are responsible for our own actions. Yes the government opened the borders but look at what many responsible careful Bahamians did, we use the God given brain we have and said no we will not travel until it's safe. Cant put your face into the lion's mouth and say oh God watches over me. When Jesus was being tempted to jump off rock did he? Knowing he has the greatest faith on earth he didnt put himself in harm's way. So who we to travel to a highly infected place and endanger not only our lives but everyone residing in the bahamas. We are the fault for our problem not the government. We travel and brought the virus back and infected our own people.

We all know that the average bahamian is stupid, hence why you don't open the DAMN borders!!! If Minnis doesn't open the borders, no one can travel and bring back the virus. SIMPLE!

I agree with the "theory". Don't allow something then say *well even though we allowed it they shouldnt have done it*

**Ever heard of the phrase FOOL PROOF plan?**

It literally means your planning is so thorough, you've planned for every eventuality. If you allow it, recognize a risk, then put checks in place to mitigate the risk. I've been saying over and over a sample of the population of travellers should be subjected to testing the minute they arrive.

The 70 cases in 2 weeks are irrefutable evidence of poor planning.

lol, now that's funny , IspeakFacts.

Didn't the prime minister begged Bahamians not to travel to Florida but instead of listening Bahamians went so blame y'all selves for this not the prime minister

I wish people would stop this narrative about "*he begged people not to travel*". **You know what a real plan would have done? Thats right, assumed people would travel against all good advice and mitigate the risk. It's called a fool proof plan**. We must stop excusing this abysmal lack of planning that's being demonstrated over and over again. Its like everytime we excuse it, the universe sends us a bigger test .A real plan does not assume everything will go right. It plans for all the identifiable "what ifs"

Stop defending Minnis and just accept the fact that he is an idiot just like your average bahamian, we all know very well that bahamians are stubborn and WILL NOT follow orders, hence why Minnis and his "Yes Men" shouldn't have open our borders to the U.S!

Bahamians can't even clean up after themselves, you really think they're gonna listen to someone when it comes to partying or travelling?

why were they sent to new prividence? Why couldn't they quarantine them on cat island, take the sample, bag it and fly the sample to Nassau for testing? Less people exposed on the plane, airport, transport from airport, hospital reception etc etc

So for the perpetual Minnis critics, are you saying that Bahamians are too dumb to make a decision about their movements, and that the PM should make every decision as to where they can go and not go? You guys need to move to Cuba! Nobody going to Walmart on weekends over there.
