But thousands of people have got it and lived, and they were unvaccinated. Otherwise the deaths worldwide would be in the 10s of millions as we didn't have a vaccine at first. Why do people try and fear monger. If you are not vaccinated Covid will not kill you, there is just a higher chance that you may die (around 2% at most). Why not brag about the 98% survival rate?
I flew in a short while ago on Bahamasair, have to say I was shocked in Florida as not many seemed to care. However when i got back a Gentleman was met at the area you get off the plane and then him and his family were walked through everything. Including customs with a number of porters carrying their bag. You could hear all of us in the line suck teeth at that. Nothing will change as long as we bow to those in power and let them get away with everything they want.
I think the letter writer must not be good at his job. I can see the tourists around the islands. Maybe they just don't use him. Yes there is a downturn now, but its September and that happens. And of course there would be more tourists if we had no entry requirements, but that would just be silly (as it was when we did that).
LOl like clockwork the unions come out before an election with ever grievance they can think of. We are going through a massive economic challenge where many in the private sector have lost jobs (you know the people who pay for you to have a salary) and not one of the public sector were let go. Are you thankful, no, you only want more. Will be fun when that day comes (and its coming quickly) when they get told no money and half of you are gone. Of course our Governments are banking on that coming from the IMF so they can blame the foreigner.
I blame all. The Government should have done better, however the people by now must know what 6ft means and how to social distance. Many videos i saw people were unable to maintain their distance and seem to not understand a mask is to go over their mouth and nose and not their chin. At some point we all need to accept responsibility.
We stick to the need to keep the USD pegged to the BSD no matter how much it harms most people in the country. Many people are unable to afford hoes, not just because they are so expensive but because they come with an 8% interest tagged to it. Thats basically unpayable.
Umm 13 US Servicemen lost their lives. I agree they should have got out (a long time ago), however the manner in which they left leaves a lot to be desired.
Mr Trump also agreed to a lot of other things that Biden has changed. Biden could have changed on this, so whilst they were always going to pull out, the manner of their pull out is at Bidens feet.

If it was illegal, allow any who were inconvenienced by it to sue the Union and win damages.
