Maybe I am wrong but have you ever seen someone pour cold water on red hot burning coals? Well that is the impression of taking a ‘below freezing temperature’ vaccine and inject into a 97.5 F blood stream. Or even putting ice in a frying Pan even.

So the vaccine companies are trying to explain away the blood clots by now saying that persons who developed these clots Han ( knowingly or unknowingly) had the Covid-19 virus before taking the vaccine and it was not the vaccine that caused the clot. So what do they do now? Test individuals for the corona antibodies and suggest they not take the vaccine or take another one rather than the AstraGenica? And the Johnson and Johnson has slipped out of place from being the most popular because of its own issues and problems, including mix up in batches. My personal opinion is that everyone needs to calm down, slow down and gather their wits about them. Go back to enforcing the emergency safety protocols whilst these vaccines work their problems out. Not to say to discontinue distribution of vaccines, but limited to people who really want to take the risk of taking them persons who really feel they are at risk of contracting the disease and developing serious complications or even dying from the virus.

Remember the Chinese Kung Fu movies? Whenever a Chinese was being chased he would run in to a crowd of other Chinese and disappear. Well this seems the battle Izmirilian is facing. The Chinese are hiding among themselves and hiding the assets among various businesses and properties. So it’s difficult to follow the paper trail. At one point one would suspect CCA would give in a little bit and offer Izmirilian ‘something of substance’ just to get him to disappear. How long will they allow this lawsuit to sit like a cloud over their businesses? Obviously it affects business planning and development. The outcome of the suit remains uncertain, but it’s not expected that Izmirilian will walk away empty handed.

So is the government throwing up its arms in light to opposition to it enforcing stricter measures to more restrictions or is it putting all its faith in the corona vaccines being fix all- cure all to the corona pandemic? No, it may not be necessary to go back to lockdowns Or increased curfews, and yes, the Covid enforcement team is busy at work, but do some areas need some tweaking and fine tuning? Like travel requirements or post travel follow ups. And focusing more on other areas that cause clusters of the virus. Areas of overcrowding for example. And there’s no certainty about the vaccines. Some US states are recording that they are seeing increases in numbers after the roll out of the vaccine. Maybe it was better people became overconfident and careless.

Understand basic essentials like uncontaminated water and probably food and medical supplies are in great need. Local companies can benefit if government does decide to send water, face masks and even some food supplies. This country is not yet scraping the bottom of the barrel, like some suggests, and every little effort to assist will be appreciated. They may eventually need a sick bay in another country, with oxygen and ventilators. Imagine the effects of the heavy ash on persons affected by corona or having other pre-existing conditions.

Attention: attention ALL of these lots have already been assigned and allocated! Just a matter of time. Just a matter of justification.. just a matter of writing it into law. Whose constituency is these lits in again? Who had been representing this constituency for several decades? Who knows this constituency (even areas of weak support that needs a voter booster)., A done deal ma boy.

> The Tulsa race massacre (known alternatively as the Tulsa race riot, the Greenwood Massacre, the Black Wall Street Massacre, the Tulsa pogrom, or the Tulsa Massacre)[10][11][12][13][14][15] took place on May 31 and June 1, 1921, when mobs of White residents, many of them deputized and given weapons by city officials, attacked Black residents and businesses of the Greenwood District in Tulsa, Oklahoma.[16] It has been called "the single worst incident of racial violence in American history."[17] The attack, carried out on the ground and from private aircraft, destroyed more than 35 square blocks of the district—at that time the wealthiest Black community in the United States, known as "Black Wall Street."[18]

‘ The Rosewood massacre was a racially motivated massacre of black people and destruction of a black town that took place during the first week of January 1923 in rural Levy County, Florida. At least six black people and two white people were killed, though eyewitness accounts suggested a higher death toll of 27 to 150. The town of Rosewood was destroyed in what contemporary news reports characterized as a race riot. Florida had an especially high number of lynchings of black men in the years before the massacre,[2] including a well-publicized incident in December 1922.’

The problem with too many things in The Bahamas is it has to be a one shot deal, or at least something that can be completed under the current administration. For something as lucrative. With growth potential and good revenue for the country as well as other players. No cruise plan should not have a scope of at least 20 years. What will the cruise market be like in 30 years. What will the passengers numbers be like. How many boats do will be sailing and wanting to visit. What new innovations and technology will be in place. Both on the ship and on the land once the ships port. And so even though the scope of the plan can be at least 20 years, the actual growth and expansion can be in 3-4-5 year cycles. This is what the port will look like in 2025. Then five years later and so on. What one doesn’t want to end up with is an impassive chunk of concrete that becomes stale and boring even before it’s completed. Take, for example, Singapore Airport. Not only is it new and modern with futuristic technology. But it was designed to be user friendly and offers a customer experience. A lot of the services like check in and baggage handling are automated and it’s common spaces and departure lounges are lush with gardens and art work. And it was not just designed and built overnight. And as one section is completed there are extensions and renovations to keep the airport modern and new. Think about it. Electric scooters or wheel chairs passengers can swipe a card and rent when coming off the ship. Or even eventually, a passenger purchases something in the straw market or store downtown. And a drone heads off and delivers the package to the cruise ship, while the visitor continues to tour downtown. And do all ships that port here have to do so in Nassau?

Reports are that women are showing more reactions to the vaccines than men. And the US has promised it will not make it necessary to have a Covid-19 passport or visa to travel or work. But some privately operated events and businesses can require proof of being vaccinated. The Chinese are now admitting that their vaccine only has an efficacy rate of 50 percent. They are now considering increasing the dosage or giving the vaccine along with another one. At some point will all these different vaccines create a problem of their own? And what happens when you are required to take second doses later in the year. Will it matter which vaccine you took first.
