Read whole article. "As of now, around 90 percent of all residents over age 16 have received at least one dose of the coronavirus vaccine". The science says that one shot only gives about 30% protection against the Delta Variant. You need two shots and then it is only 60 to 80 % effective.
Look at the UK rates where the number of cases is almost as many as it was at it worst a few months ago BUT look at the number dying. Was up to 1200 a day whereas it has not breached 100 a day.
"... said the utility was not liable for any damages to personal property because it had been impacted by an “Act of God”.
This guy is such a joke. So if somewhere floods in Europe or the US and roads get cut they can sit back and do nothing claiming an "Act of God". No, they repair at once. It took you two years to get reverse osmosis when you should, and could, have done it in two months.
He is not speaking to the number of cases but to the number in hospital.
He is referring to "Our health institutions are at capacity. The wards are full. Resources are stretched – both human as well as physical resources are being stretched to the limit. So, we are definitely in some difficult days."
The point is that those who have been vaccinated, and get COVID-19, are far less likely to need to go to hospital.
With repect to the Report that you referred to it did not, and they say so spefically, deal with the effect of the T cells which also play a part in the fight against COVID.
**“If water is being delivered to us in accordance with a contract of service from the Grand Bahama Utility Company, which is a GBPA company, and that water is above the limit for chloride/salinity content, can you imagine what it is doing to other people’s properties?”**
Many owners in Lucaya have replaced their water heaters, at least once, because of corrosion.
It means that business cost go up so they will have to weed out and let go persons who are not performing at 100%. Since a large percentage of those who get COVID 19 get Long Covid and the unvaccinated are more likely to get COVID 19 the couse seems clear.
You have given us a half truth. Yes the numbers are rising in the US and UK. Most are the very comunicable Delta variant and 85% of those getting it are unvaccinated.
Also, well over 99% admitted to hospital are unvaccinated.
That is why both countries are pleading with the unvaccinated to get their shots.

No it does not. It is a reflection of a percentage of increase of cases,
Therefore if you go up 853 cases in Jan 2021 you have gone up 10%. If you go up 853 cases on July 2021 you have gone up 200%.
The numbers are still down. The graph is not a reflection of the numbers.
