Brave's actions speak for themselves. His daughter is not at the hospital that he is in. Just as she is monitoring him from one state to another in the US why not from her hospital to Doctors Hospital in Nassau?
Answer: Brave has no faith in our hospital system. If he believed in "his people" he would have stayed.
The question is what will the government do next? It must have a plan to test frontline staff (police, nurses and doctors, immigration and customs officers) more often because that is where the major spread has come from.
Business will not survive anymore lockdowns and there should not be a need for anymore if the government would test these workers on a regular once or twice a week basis.
Thank you Dr. Bethel. Finally someone has set out the facts.
You are correct about the contact tracing. I am well aware of many persons who gave contact information only to find the persons were never contacted.
Whoever told Minnis that we had an 87% and 80% rate of contact traceing is trying to make him feel good and look like a fool before the Bahamain people.

I agree there should be no reason for the 102 location pending number.
It is evidence that they have no idea what they are doing. Screams of incompetence.
Makes one wonder if this same incompetence is the cause of a number of deaths.
I suspect this is why Brave Davis went to the US for treatment. Sad, because he has had a large part to play in our current health facilities.

Shut it down. We need the Bahamasair money for food, health services and assistance for those out of work.
Thousands of us and a couple hundred of them. Shut it down, get real.

***“We do not know the extent or number of Covid-19 infections in the Bahamas. Confirmed Covid-19 cases are only a percentage of the total."***
Finally, a government department that tells the truth.
And why don't they know?
Because the government is not testing. It is the private sector that has more than doubled the number of tests done in The Bahamas.
People are dying because of the negligence of people like Dahl Regis who didn't want to buy tests from Cayman because the price was too high.
And we have the money. the Minister of Toursim and Aviation was just talking how the government is now spending $7.5 million a month on Bahamasair.

This is so pathetic.
Insted of doing proper testing so that the Country can get covid 19 under control we allow it to spred and then make everyone shutdown.
The average man is without money and without dignity as he or she is forced to beg the politicians for food.
BTW, Minister how about paying their utility bills as well.
