Many fear that New Providence will also have to be locked down soo. This may be because the competent authority not only failing to take proactive action, but continuing to release restrictions, specifically fir people who have taken the vaccine. This is despite science showing that vaccinated persons as a threat to unvaccinated persons and other vaccinated as they can spread the virus almost endlessly. And this is definitely part of the problem this country is facing with the exponential increase in Corona cases. Some countries and US States have reinstated orders of mask wearing, no testing, social distancing and indoor dining for vaccinated people. Even the US president has refused, on many occasions, to exercise his freedom to unmask outdoors. This idiotic policy only designed to promote the vaccines is creating greater problems. And those who implement and administer it should be charged with treason.
Most of the cases are coming from persons who travel or people who work in the hotel industry. An environment where guests refuse to wear masks or follow other safety measures.
New York is offering $5 million in lottery prizes to residents who take the vaccine. The chances of winning at least the smallest prize is 1 in 100. And this gives more reason to be skeptical about the vaccines if not making you not want to take them at all
The Bahamas is in the TOP TEN for countries having the most prisoners per capital. Of course TThe United States heads the list while having only 7 percent of the world’s population, it has 90 percent of the world’s prisoners. And other countries on the list that have more prisoners per capita than The Bahamas include countries like Rawanda, El Salvador and Cuba. This country’s prison population started to grow, then exploded when the country ‘signed on’ to America’s FAKE ‘War on Drugs’ and started to send young men to prison for long periods for small amounts of marijuana (. And some of the new proposed legislation giving up to 40 years and 1/2 million dollar fines for as little as 2 pounds of marijuana seems to be even more draconian with the potential to damage and destroy even more young men). And so they would parade these young men chained, handcuffed and shackled through the main square , guarded by heavily armed policemen. And plaster their photos across the news and the newspapers. And in everyone’s eyesight and thinking, these men who only possessed small amounts of marijuana were dangerous. And as the police became more armed against these ‘dangerous criminals’. Persons in the community felt the need to bear arms, guns became common on the streets and school children started arming themselves with knives and other weapons. The problem is the heavily arming of police came ways before the streets became heavily armed. It was not unusual to go to Junkanoo or a concert or some other social or national event, even school sports and be met with police armed with high powered assault weapons. And it gave the impression that the country was unsafe and was subject to attack at any minute. Imagine the impression on tourists attending these events from Canada, the United Kingdom or even the United States. Even these countries do not arm their police in this fashion to offer security at social and sporting events. And it didn’t stop there. During Elections, former Prime Minister, Lynden Pindling developed the habit of placing heavily armed Defense Force officers at major power substations, water plants and distribution sites and major government offices. Marvin Dames took it even further when he brought out defense force officers and artillery for his own employees. So young men and the general public over the decades have been given this (no longer false) sense of insecurity and see the need to arm themselves. Even at weddings and funerals! The chickens have, indeed come home to roost. May the soul of the departed Rest In Peace.
When growing up, one of the most ungodly things you can ever do is pick up an edge tool like a knife or screwdriver or even weapons like a hammer or baseball bat to go fight . The beating one would get for arming himself in such deadly fashion. And if it happened on a school campus, that was definite suspension and even expulsion. Today young men and boys arm themselves with these type weapons and obviously are very prepared to use them. And as they get older they graduate. Guns and ammunition. How did the country get to this?
‘ The small archipelago nation of Seychelles, northeast of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean, has emerged as the world's most vaccinated country for COVID-19.
Around 71 per cent of people have had at least one dose of a COVID vaccine, and 62 per cent have been fully vaccinated. Of these, 57 per cent have received the Sinopharm vaccine, and 43 per cent AstraZeneca.
Despite this, there has been a recent surge in cases, with 37 per cent of new active cases and 20 per cent of hospital cases being fully vaccinated. The country has had to reimpose some restrictions. Even amongst other vaccinated persons.
How can this be happening?’ Many believe vaccinated persons become super spreaders

According to international sources, the conch poisoning is not unique to The Bahamas. Sources report that the contamination of shellfish including conch, crabs oysters etc., extends all the way to Alaska. And it has nothing to do with the handling of the product, but the sudden warming of the ocean/sea that has caused a drastic increase in bacteria that frequent these creatures. So cooking makes it safe for most people but raw consumption can even be deadly.
