The government is finally getting smart because they are realizing that the cure is going to be far worse than the disease with all the lockdowns! You better open up or people will die - not from the virus but from the lockdown.
yep, das we Bahamas. And you think all of the stupid asinine restrictions we put in place that tourist are actually going to want to come to the Bahamas???? For what???? The sun, sand and sea ????
Not to worry. on Nov 4th it will all be over in the US. Trump will win, lockdowns will be over, and it'll be business as usual and if Minnis keeps this country locked down, tourists will simply go someplace else. There is nothing that the Bahamas has to offer that many other destinations in the Caribbean don't have! Nothing!
Columbus got it right. Rapid Antigen test with results in 15 mins. 88% accurate rate versus the PCR with a 95% accuracy rate. 88% is good enough! Get on with it!!! Look at Hawaii.....they are accepting the rapid antigen test. So do I want to go to Hawaii or the Bahamas and have to put up with all this nonsense??? The answer is easy!!!
Our PM has lost his way. It is time for him to go - and go fast! Let me get this right. This rudderless government wants visitors to produce a negative COVID test on arrival, which I can accept, but then you have to be tested again on arrival, and tested a 3rd time some days later??? So why would a visitor go through all of that to visit the Bahamas??? For what??? The beautiful waters and the warm, friendly people??? Ain’t happenin.’ How stupid is that??? You’d have to be an idiot to go through all that.
The Bahamas is about to self destruct and this lockdown BS, open, close, open, close is going to be worse than the virus! Mark my word! It will take the BROKE Bahamas many years to pull out of the economic destruction. You all better learn to fish and grow cassava!

*"Best thing we can do is kick USA out of our country"* Some of you all better wake-up because you've been asleep for a long time! if you think the Chinese are investing in the Bahamas because they want to help Bahamians and a developing nation, you are sadly mistaken and foolishly misled. They have one interest and one interest only and that is spreading their footprint far and wide and getting as close as they can to the U.S. Take a look at how much of the U.S. they own. They'll be fishing our waters like you've never seen on their commercial fishing boats and going back to China with the catch. And if sleepy Joe wins the election, we're in trouble! Wake up Bahamas!!!
That’s one hell of a precedent setting case. Wait until something tragic happens with the shark diving companies in the Bahamas. You all goin’ down the same road. People can’t fish or spearfish anymore because sharks have become conditioned to boat motors. Soon as they hear the motor, they gather around.
Clamshell.......you just don’t get it. This isn’t the US where the government is sending you a $600 stimulus check once a week on top of the unemployment insurance you can collect. Keep the economy shutdown in the Bahamas much longer and you’ll see what happens. The rich won’t be hurting but everyone else will. You can bank on it!
