Any translators on duty? Thanks in advance.

Dr. Minnis should try to keep up with events. The government announced months ago that the Environmental Impact Assessment was “under review.” So, his dramatic announcement didn’t come as much of a surprise.

The answer is an absentee-voter alternative, with the ballots individually bar-coded to prevent fraud. Many nations and every state in the U.S. do this. Some of those rural U.S. states are not much more populous than the Bahamas, so it’s not as if this is impossible. SMH.

Both parties have been promising to build a hospital on Eleuthera for more than 20 years. Thus far, the only movement was when a PLP sold a plot of land to the gov’t several years for about 5x its market value. Then a PLP was paid gawd knows how much to clear the land with his bulldozer. That’s it. Nothing further, just a money pit.

You survived polio and smallpox? Wow. That must have been something. Congratulations.

True. There are also vaccines for many viruses, which most people forget: polio, flu, measles, mumps, chicken pox, rubella, smallpox, etc. — and Covid. Many people have taken these other vaccines throughout their life without thinking a thing about it. But suddenly, a vaccine for killer Covid is a big issue with them. SMH.

Sorry, I do not, and the newspaper’s site is not easily searchable. But I know it was in the past 2 weeks … a shame no editors remembered it and referenced it in this story.

There was a story in The Tribune not long ago about a “sickout” or work stoppage at the morgue or coroner’s office. Odd that nobody at The Tribune remembered that or mentioned it in this story.

Stay tuned for the follow-up story: “RBDF ships run aground.”

If a citizen does not pay their water bill, the town cuts off their water. It’s been interesting to watch the government scream like a stuck pig when they were treated the same way.
