“Meanwhile, international news outlets have reported that rich nations like the United States, Britain and Canada have been buying up stocks of the vaccines, leaving poorer nations shut out.”
This is complete and total bullshyte, an easy excuse. They started vaccinating people in Afghanistan a month ago with AstraZenica. They were vaccinating in Bolivia two months ago. We’re poorer than Afghanistan? Bolivia? Spare me.
“However, the vaccines never arrived and it is still not clear when the first doses will be present in the country.“
But he’s not disappointed. Nobody knows where they are, or what happened, or when they will arrive, or who will get them, or how, or when, but ... hey, no biggie, right?
Are we really supposed to believe that 1/3 of the people living on Eleuthera own a piece of the North Eleuthera Airport? And are entitled to back rent? Ah ... lawyers. God bless ‘em.
As noted, a virus does not bounce off your body because you eat well and live a healthy lifestyle. It’s like claiming your diet protects you from shark attacks. SMH.
I’m curious about your “natural immunity” remark, Tribanon: Do you honestly believe that you are immune from communicable diseases? What creates this immunity for you that others lack? Serious question.

You are exactly right. It’s all politics. Three airports on that island is insane, especially the one down at Rock Sound. GHB has a great long runway, good facilities and centrally located. It’s only about a 40 minute drive from the HI/SW area served by ELH. Most Americans have a longer drive than that to an airport, so it’s no big deal. The situation is nuts.
