It is clear that no thought went into this latest lockdown. Grade "D" thinking prevails and with it people will lose their jobs and their businesses.

Where is the financial relief as other countries have done. If they gave businesses mony like they have in Europe, Canada and the US some mmay have a chance to survive and keep employees on.

Lockdown & Financial Relief go hand in hand. Can't do one without the other.

GB Power is owned an doperated by the Canadian power company Emera and runs like a real first world power company.

Find a proper company to run BPL and give it to them free. We will get power wich will enable us to make money because we will be able to operate our businesses properly with reliable energy.

We will also save the country (tax payers) tens of millions of dollars each year in the money sucking money loosing inefficient BPL.

Problem is that the Ministry of Health only has one protocol. It is based on only testing when people show symtoms. This has been proven scientifically to be imperfect by countries like Germany, South Korea, Iceland and others.

Cayman is COVID free but they have tested 45% of the population. The Bahamas is at 1%.

Massive testing = little or no active COVID (Cayman).
Little or no testing = 574+ COVID cases and rising (Bahamas)

Require that they get tested on arrival and retested 4 days later at their own cost. Most boaters are well off enough to pay for the tests.

We are going to need the Ministry of Health to devise new protocols that permit a business to deep clean and then recommence business, maybe with a requirement that the negatives all be retested 5 or 6 days later.

We can't keep shutting a business down for 14 days because someone tests poistive. The businesses will be forced to shut down and fire everyone.

The government has no plan. Just close. They don't test so they have allowed COVID-19 to spread like wild fire.

They will bankrupt the entire business community.

Other countries are funding business but "this government is anti-business".

***"Germany announced on Monday a programme of free, mandatory coronavirus testing for travellers returning from a list of high-risk countries. The list currently includes Brazil, Turkey and the US, and officials said it will be updated daily."***

Germany is a country of roughly 90,000,000 people and less than 10,000 deaths. That's like the US only having 40,000 deaths instead of 150,000.

Germany got testing early on and continue to test. They don't wait to see if some one comes down or try to send everyone home for 14 days quarantine.

They test and test and test.

The Government also needs to give money to all the other airlines in the country. At least they act responsibly.

They should really shhut Bahamasair down. Its losses represent nearly 10% of the Country's national debt.

The prime minister's latest emergency orders on international travel now makes it possible for travelers from all countries to enter the country, including commercial air travelers from the United States, subjecting all visitors to mandatory quarantine.

So who is going to visit? Most come for a few days. This means no one will come except maybe some winter residents.

PM must have COVID-19 with high fever.....and is delirious.

In all fairness to the PM, he did beg Bahamians "not to go" when he opened the boarders.

But, with our low grade D mentality we went anyway.

On learning what to do with COVID-19 we Bahamians got a D-.
