So is the contractor going to be held accountable for any economic losses people had or will it be business as usual and wiped under the rug

How is this meant to help. if the numbers are out of control then lockdown for two weeks. If they aren't then no need for lockdown. From his own mouth businesses are where most cases are occurring (i would highly suspect it is Government entities), so how is allowing them to still operate going to work. We will be like this until November and then no doubt longer unless you are a tourist, as you will be exempt. All they had to do was enforce the rules from the start and it wouldn't have got this far. But at least this time he says they will enforce them (unless you are connected or live in one of those western gated communities as then you can carry on, just don't be poor or unconnected).

One of the few times i agree with Davies. We should have been testing and tracing from the start. but no our Government tired to do things on the cheap and hope it would disappear. They have seriously dropped the ball. Finally enforce the dam laws, masks, social distancing and stop those parties and funerals we all see being done by people who must be untouchable for some reason.

Maybe Government should enforce the laws on all. Everyone has seen the parties and yet nothing happens to the people there. We locked down in August and that did nothing as nothing was enforced. So we will do lip service and lock down again and there will be no change, except more companies will go bankrupt.

What? I am lost on this

Fully agree on the lost income part. . If the government had enforced the laws and we had this rise then maybe i could agree with another lockdown. But they have not done that. I drive West Bay street a lot and see so many people partying, and there is no one stopping it. Until they do that there will be wide spread Covid. As one of those in charge of people who broke the law said, it is what it is.

We are a pretend Christian nation, everyone knows this. When it suits us we will be Christian but when we take the veneer off we are not (and when this is pointed out we will blame someone else be it foreigners or gays for our sins).

Then you go out and take a loan and start building.

Why would they buy when they can wait until the price continues to drop, as it will the longer this goes on for. In addition they are no doubt trying to make sure they can operate when they are allowed to sail again (my way would be before the vaccine your way after, which would take longer). This makes these decisions take the bench until Covid is all over.

So wait on the one hand you want the deal done so tourists can come, but on the other hand you don't want any tourists. Until businesses know the outcome of Covid there won't be any tourists.
