I feel sorry for this young lady, but let's speak frankly. Ya'll sit and complain about the state of healthcare in this country, and how terrible the service is at PMH, yet when it's election time everyone sits silent on the issues that matter. Stop voting for shiite disguised as sugar, hold these politicians accountable. I am so sick and tired of hearing the same complaints and yet nothing is done. Why? Because we refuse to hold the ones who are responsible accountable. Furthermore when these top level politicians do deem to lower themselves and come to PMH to receive care, they get the royal treatment. So they never actually get to experience what the average Bahamian does. At the end of the day...only people to blame for how terrible this healthcare system is the Bahamian people- we take what they give is.
It isn't about healthcare being free, most countries have a mandate to treat critical patients regardless of financial status. So the idea here is if a person with health conditions travels to the US and becomes critically ill, they will be treated at the expense of the US. Once the patient is stable they will then be transferred back to their country of citizenship/residency. They are trying to prevent that from happening, people coming and being treated and then leaving the US with a medical bill they are unable to pay.
They really need to stop allowing Fred Mitchell to be inappropriately dressed for these occasions. Cause why does he look like he's chilling at family dinner during an official ceremony. smdh
This is why The Bahamas government needs to enact a policy like the US did. If flights are delayed due to an issue with the airline, then passengers are automatically compensated. They should not have to post videos and plead on social media for the airline to do what is right. That could have never been a US airline...they are governed by new rules thanks to Biden.
What many Bahamians fail to realize is, in order for Rick Fox to run in any election he would have to denounce his dual citizenship. And I do not see him doing that, right now he's just hyping up the masses.
Same thing I said, there needs to be a law or some kind of rule in place to govern these type of things in the event they do happen. It should be dependent on how much time is left in the term. Less than a year left on the term then the party who the seat belongs to should be able to appoint someone to hold the seat until an election is called, more than a year left then there should be a by-election in order to allow the constituents to vote for a new MP. I feel we make these things too difficult in an effort to cover up corruption. Bahamians need to wake up and stop allowing these regular people who we appointed to lead take advantage of people.
My question is are these children in The Bahamas legally? And if they are not, how are they able to avail themselves of the free education meant for those legally residing in the country? This immigrant situation really is getting out of hand. There is no way the majority of a class in an English speaking country should not be able to read, write, and speak English.
RIP to this young man. Sounds like a case of an inexperienced motorcycle rider based on the information the police have given. He left out at 3:07am in the rain, so it was dark and it was raining and he had only just purchased in the motorcycle in August. Most likely he took the helmet off thinking he would be able to see better in the dark and rain and lost control of the motorcycle. So very sad and I feel for this mother.
This case only serves to highlight just how antiquated our laws are. In this instance abortion was reasonably justified. A 15yr old is a child, and having a baby at that age may have possibly been the end of a bright future. Considering we are not privy to the details surrounding the pregnancy, I still would conclude in this case the mother made a wise choice for her child. And going further the alleged father is a 21yr old, facing a rape charge, and notice the article does not say statutory rape- so one can assume the 15yr old was not a willing participant. Either way I am glad they dismissed this case, and hopefully they will revisit abortion laws in The Bahamas.
