Since we are on the topic - let me get this straight please? We are asking tourists to come here for a vacation but they have to be locked up by 8pm and they are not permitted to venture out from Friday 5pm to Monday morning? where do you guys come up with this stuff? If i had a hotel or airline business in this country I would shut it down indefinitely until this mess is straightened out. I am flabbergasted at how little understanding of real life the people making decisions about the lifeblood of this country actually have. Take away half the populations income for 9 months and then stop providing any assistance to feed his family? Minnis and the medical establishment have created the biggest ticking time bomb this country has ever seen and they are completely oblivious to it. well done. hope everyone got a shotgun to protect themselves when it hits the fan.

the more I hear about the testing and the many many false or strange results the less faith i have in the medical profession. they don't want us to use antigen or antibody testing because they are not reliable but the number of anecdotal false results I am hearing call the PCR testing into question to. if a test is too expensive or too difficult to administer widely it is not a good test period. antigen/antibody tests are better simply because they are quicker and cheaper to give. PCR is not practical and is should not be relied upon for the reasons I have outlined. Give the at risk people 10 N95 (or equivalent) masks and lets all get back to life. If any politician says they did not know it would last this long is either lying or the people giving them advice are clearly clueless. A viral pandemic does not disappear overnight, simply pick up a bloody history book sometime.

this epitomizes the level of sheer lack of understanding of the real world living.

Matthew 7:15

No one gives a crap what this man has to say. always wondered why he gets so much space in this notable publication.

this is a 3 year problem. stop treating it like it will go away next week. stupid medical establishment. what is the medical establishment plan - to shut down and lock everyone away for 3 years? that is not a solution. go do some proper homework and figure out a work around to deal with it while allowing the economy to survive. shutting every business down is not a solution it is a cowards lazy response. get with it.

taking credit for something that WSC had very little to do with. "I'm so proud of myself for getting this present from my friend".

sounds like a sinking ship. From the outside it does not appear that Minnis takes any counsel from anyone else. From the outside it looks like a two man dictatorship, and the onus is on the leaders to dispel that image. there has not been a lick of transparency of the government contracts handed out after Dorian. Local companies bypassed for Nassau cronies. its just more of the same, par for course. should anyone really be surprised the Bahamas does not change its spots.

anyone else losing faith in the Bahamas medical establishment? if they continue with this rhetoric they will do more harm than good. STOP putting up road blocks and start putting forward solutions. The entire medical establishment is like "hey don't do that" but they don't offer any alternative. people need to eat, to work, to play, to live. and continuing this silly dialogue of "Stop don't do anything" is just creating more problems than it solves. if you drop the jar on the floor you do stop, but then you put on shoes grab the broom and start cleaning it up. This medical profession is paralyzed and unable to find the shoes or the broom.

Does it really take a 4 year degree and a 3 year apprenticeship to stick a stick up someone's nose? If you aren't helping you are hurting.

There is research on the books which suggests that those who are most homophobic often have strong repressed homosexual tendencies. Read some of the psychological literature. Freud, despite all the flaws is a good starting point.
