He needs to get his normal PM power back for us to be back to normal. These super Fascist dictitorial one man power should he could only look in the mirror and take his mind off vaccines. We are still handcuffed by his mighty power. Any time he wants to tighten our cuffs by shutting down the country or closing food stores to make us starve because he loves us he will.

It's all about control. Soon he will read the script Boris Johnson just read trying to explain to the British people how he denied medical advice for another lockdown because of the damage it would do to peoples lives. All the same keeping the cuffs of power on inventing new strains to boogie man scare us to take yet another vaccine to cope with tell thy kingdom comes new strains.

And pray tell o'mighty power-juiced Minnis, what will you next be doing in your infinite wisdom for the greater good of your plebes in our society? Will you as our authoritarian supreme ruler be announcing that only Bahamians who get vaccinated for the Wuhan virus at least once a year will be allowed to live in certain neighbourhoods? Or perhaps you will announce that only those Bahamians who wear a Red FNM 'T'-shirt at least 4 days a week will be allowed to have a driver's license or ride on a jitney? Maybe you will see fit to formally announce that only Bahamians who do not weigh more than 270 lbs will be allowed to receive medical treatment from our public health system? (God rest the soul of that poor Bimini resident, Louis Edward Rolle).

I am guessing there are about 400K citizens in the Bahamas , to achieve herd immunity, 70% PLUS, that's 280K to 325K of citizens need to be vaccinated, it's time all from the PM down stop BSing Bahamians

Assuming the "vaccinations" are actually effective...

Take away the children, comes to less than 20000. Still way more than the supplies for 60000 they actually have.

Many, many thousand of Bahamians have already been exposed to the Wuhan virus and developed their own natural immunity to it. This should be a major contributing factor to the development of herd immunity within our society. But governments around the world seem hell-bent on adopting a shot-gun vaccination approach whereby they want everyone to get jabbed a couple of times, even if you've already been infected and fully recovered from the Wuhan virus. They refuse to test for the existence of anti-bodies before giving these jabs. The big question here is why are these governments using a shot-gun approach? Is it because they have dishonestly led us to believe these Wuhan virus vaccines work in the same way as a polio or small pox vaccine?

Many of us suspect sinister deep state actors, and their elitist billionaire friends and evil bio-tech researchers, have commandeered elected officials and globalist bureacrats around the world who now wrongfully seek to take away individual free-will. There is an all out assault on the fundamental right of individuals in democratic societies to determine and decide for themselves what's in the interest of their own personal health and well-being. The ultimate goal seems to be the ability to force us to put in our body whatever they want us to be subjected to by requiring us to get jabbed once or twice annually for the rest of our lives. They seem evilly motivated by population control aimed at reducing the world's current population, or at least stopping its gowth, because they believe this is the only way of keeping our planet green for the people whom they will decide can live on it. And that's truly a most scary thought.

You need to stop all of your misplaced fear mongering. Our health system has not been overwhelmed in a long while with hospitalized Wuhan virus patients on ventilators. That's due in large part to the treatment therapies now known and available, and the sad fact that the virus has already taken its death toll on the weakest among us, i.e. the elderly with pre-existing medical conditions. And putting aside the issue of false positive test results, there's a big difference between testing positive for the Wuhan virus and the unlikely possibility of dying from it. This is clearly evidenced by our country's total death count from the Wuhan virus to date, the rate of which has thankfully continued to slow. Suggest you start looking at the much bigger picture behind all that now going on which seems to be much more sinisterly focused on population control.

Oh well...at least I tried. You just lend too much credibility to the old addage: "You can lead a horse to the water trough but you can't make it drink from it." lol

*That's due in large part to the treatment therapies now known and available.*

And what therapies might that be? Pls don't say Chloroquine, Ivermectin, Remdesivir etc., as you should be the last person who would want to take these given the limited Clinical Trial data and long term effect data for Covid patients

Antibody tests are not always the best indicator. It can take 1-3 weeks after COVID symptoms start for the antibodies to appear in the blood. There is also the question of how long after having COVID is there still sufficient concentration of antibodies to produce a meaningful test response.

Then of course there is the accuracy of the test.

Skip this next bit if Math is not your cup of tea.

I think the best test has 95% sensitivity & specificity. If you use this test on a sample of 1,000 people of which 50 actually have antibodies to the virus, the test will correctly identify 95 percent of the true positives, i.e. 47 individuals (50 x 0.95). When it comes to true negatives, the test will correctly identify 95 percent, or 902 out of 950 individuals (950 x 0.95). The other 48 will get a (false) positive result, even though they do not have antibodies. The total number of positive results will be 95 (47 + 48) out of 1,000. However, since only 47 of those positive results will actually be correct, the probability that you actually have COVID antibodies is only about 50 percent which means you may as well just toss a coin.

Wow! You mean to tell me they couldn't develop a reliable test for anti-bodies, yet they somehow managed to develop these complex mRNA vaccines at warp speed (for emergency use only with complete legal immunity for the developers) with no likelihood of serious long-term side-effects. I'm simply speechless!

*I'm simply speechless!*

Now, that truly is THE lie of all lies. lol

Good one! lol

‘Once individuals are fully vaccinated,” he said, “individuals can participate in a closed environment, once all within that closed environment are fully vaccinated. The mask would not be necessary and they can participate within that environment.’

.
.
This is the second idiot that is telling people that once they are fully vaccinated, they will not need a mask to be in a room with other people who are fully vaccinated. For the record, please note (1) Persons who are fully vaccinated can still have the virus. (2) Persons who are fully vaccinated can still transmit the virus. (3). They can also transmit the virus to someone who is fully vaccinated. (4). Persons who are fully vaccinated can also contract the virus. (5) persons who are fully vaccinated can also contract the virus from another person who is fully vaccinated. So the wearing of masks, social distancing, hand washing and sanitizer are still necessary until the virus disappears or a cure is found. And if this is the final wave, this corona can be mostly gone by June. Many countries including THe United States, India, Brazil are starting to see declines in the numbers of new cases again along with fewer hospitalizations.

nice cute and paste

kinda defeats the purpose of REAL comment

Obviously YOU didn’t READ the comment, obviously!

Can't wait to read the comments when Biden stipulates that only fully vaccinated individuals can travel to the USA.
Ya'll will be begging for the vaccine. This will be fun!

The UK has already indicated that Americans who are fully vaccinated can travel to that country with Covid tests. But then there’s the presumption that Corona will be around for a very long time. What if this is the third and final wave?

Are you willing to bet your life on this being the "final" wave?

India KINDLY helped us out, but to get protection from COVID (it doesn’t discriminate - anyone can get it), you need to present Bahamian ID at the vaccination site meaning we’re excluding certain ppl (Haitians?) = COVID AIN’T GOING NOWHERE (duh)!

It explains why this ‘rich’ Haitian gal has been made to live like a pauper. Bigots.

‘Christian nation’??

Of note: Rather than bother to purchase vaccines for its citizens, the Bahamian government quite predictably relied on freebie handouts of vaccines from India — a paltry amount that were administered as “first doses,” with the government idiots believing that enough follow-up vaccines would be delivered, free of charge. Any day now. Maybe. La-di-da.

Result? Far fewer than 10% of Bahamians have received a first dose, India is now suffering a horrendous outbreak of Covid and has suspended *all* exports of vaccines to other countries. They’re not sending any more, folks.

Has anybody in the government noticed this development? And ... their response?

And why are we vaccinating the many, many thousands of Bahamians who have no doubt already been allicted with the Wuhan virus and recovered from it? Why aren't Bahamians being tested for anti-bodies their own immune systems may have already naturally developed before health officials waste our very limited supply of vaccine doses on them?

We must keep asking ourselves: Why is a shot-gun approach being adopted whereby persons who have likely already developed a natural immunity to the Wuhan virus are nevertheless still getting vaccinated with these new warp speed developed mRNA vaccines? What the true story behind what's going on here?

Why has the government not secured more doses of vaccine? Even with all of the anti vaxers we will still be far short of what is needed to vaccinate the people who want it.

Why has the government not made purchase agreements with any manufacturers? What have they been doing for the last 10 months since vaccines went on sale? The cost of vaccinating the population is less than what we are losing in revenue every day. Every day that the government sits around doing nothing is another day pushing back the proper reopening of the country.

Very good points. Why? ‘Cause they thought they’d get an endless vaccine supply free from India. Whoppee! Except ... it ain’t workin’ out that way.

The gov’t will spend endless $$millions to buy a tumble-down resort on New Providence, bailing out its wealthy owners. But defend its own citizens from a deadly disease? Pffftttt.

Didn’t the government make a $2Million advance payment on vaccines? Is it something to do with the vaccines that are being held in Ohio and Minnesota because the FDA has yet to give approval for their use in the US? Is some of this country’s vaccines caught up in this batch?

And Minnis claimed the $2 million was paid for 80,000 doses. lol

**Even the UBP's Sir Stafford** never had the bullocks came right out to declare, **"Privileges shall only exist certain class amongst the Popoulaces.**
How can man's nearing 5-generations anniversary on the other side of the **Quasi abolishment British Rule,** still get to become even more DNA psychology worst than any historically known UBP-acting..., yes?

Are there any Tal-translators on duty? Thanx in advance ...

Tal's making perfect sense here for those who are willing to keep their eyes wide open.

OK ... then tell me in plain English what this means: “... the other side the Quasi abolishment British Rule, still get to become even more DNA psychology worst than any historically known UBP-acting...” Thank you.

Haha, I was wondering the same thing

u 2 r either 1 & same or both blind. lol

Both the makers of the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have indicated that booster shots (dose #3) will be needed by already vaccinated persons as early as October this year. This third shot will be necessary to make the vaccines effective against new strains of the virus. Johnson and Johnson and AstraGenica have not yet indicated a need for another shot. J and J has just returned to production as the FDA and the CDC decided the benefits far outweigh the problem (blood clots). The US plans to use J and J to vaccinate the homeless who may not be able to be located for a second dose of the other vaccines and also for people in rural or hard to reach areas.

I salute you. You're a fine one to be doing that kind of wondering. lol

All for the money with his helping hand

You seem unaware that rt.com is a Russian state-controlled propaganda outlet. Then again, maybe you ARE aware ...

More poison upon more poison shot 2-3 dosage.👍💉

They're fine tuning that population control.....trying to get it just the way they want it.
