MAYBE but remember there was a WAR going on. Not only were the military living in cloy quarters but they were traveling around w world . And civil society did not practice social distancing and some other SAFETY protocols until the second and third WaVeS! We canceled Junkanoo and regattas and other events that attract large gatherings. The Philadelphia Parade was the single event most responsible for infecting the most people, at least in the United States.

And an extension to America’s ‘war in drugs’ was its ‘war on illegal immigrants’. They wanted President Trump to fill up these prisons with illegal immigrants. Remember when Trump started rounding up ‘illegals’ some who had been in the US all their adult life and some even had grandchildren? But Trump preferred a rapid deportation policy and stricter borders so most of these prisons still remain empty.

‘ Asked on Friday about the incident, he said: “Now that’s really unfortunate and of course we know that our young people, S C McPherson is a junior high, are very vulnerable to these kinds of incidents not only in terms of marijuana or those kinds of drugs but even alcohol so it’s definitely a concern and, of course, I’ve been preaching that parents need to become more involved….interested in the lives of their children so they can understand what’s going on.”<

Two points: when a person gets ill with corona virus or some other communicable disease, there is contact tracing. This where authorities go and try to identify and contact all the persons who were in contact with the patient and test to see if they have the virus and prevent them from passing in on to others. A 14 year old student bringing ‘edibles’ to school and sharing with classmates is also a victim. Where did he get the drugs? Was he under any type of force or duress to bring the drugs to school? Find, as much as possible, from where the drugs originated, at least in this countr.y
.
TWO: when are the authorities in this country going to find the intestinal fortitude to end ‘America’s War on Drugs,’ in this country? Haven’t you found out by now that America’s war in drugs is actually a war on young Black men and it’s intent is to see young men away from their families, out of society and either in jail or dead or otherwise incapacitated. Time to put our own boots on the ground and go on a search and rescue mission to get the young men in this country back into society and no longer enemies of the state. YES, drugs are wreaking havoc on young people in this country and it is time to put a harness on Marvin Dames and his ‘killer cop squad’ and throw these your people a real and effective life line. Half this stuff they have on the streets of this country is no longer the marijuana that came from Jamaica or down south. It is designed to wipe out a properly functioning brain and slowly turn healthy, productive youn brains into Zombies! And when it is consumed with alcohol, it turns the young people violent, aggressive, belligerent. They become predators. These drugs were developed in US prisons starting under the Clinton administration. Bill and Hillary Clinton locked up more young Black man than any other president. And the plan was for Hillary to win and continue the program. They had plans to invade places like Chicago and Boston and Philadelphia and lock up young Black men, who Hillary Clinton labeled ‘severely damaged super predators.’ Many of the prisons where they young men were to be sent are owned by friends of the Clintons. Now many of these prisons sit mostly empty. End America’s war on drugs in this country and throw out a real lifeline to the young people, males especially, in this country. Send them ldryg dealing double agents bech home.

The third wave may be a blessing in disguise! ThT is if it meets the country prepared and the people practicing the safety protocols. It may mean an end to the weakening virus that is now rapidly mutating to try to survive. It can only continue to survive when it can rapidly transmit from person to person;

> Widespread immunization ended the pandemic. (NOT!!!)

Immunization against the flu was not practiced in 1918, and thus played no role in ending the pandemic.

Exposure to prior strains of the flu may have offered some protection. For example, soldiers who had served in the military for years suffered lower rates of death than new recruits.

In addition, the rapidly mutating virus likely evolved over time into less lethal strains. This is predicted by models of natural selection. Because highly lethal strains kill their host rapidly, they cannot spread as easily as less lethal strains

Most of the countries that have taken early action against this final attacks of the receding Covid-19 virus were able to re-open after a short time and there is semblance of things returning to normal. Then there are countries, like Cuba and Jamaica, and a fw others that are seeing surges in numbers of new corona cases that are exceeding the total numbers for last year. Of course, when the rest of the world went into their second wave, these countries had very liitle cases. And after several weeks of spring break partying, the US are seeing surges in corona numbers. And while more young people (spring breakers) and getting ill and having to be hospitalized, health experts says this new wave is nothing close to what the previous waves were. Minnis can least afford to shut the country down again. And obviously the surges in new cases are driven by persons who travel. ANd for the three islands most affected, is he willing to impose travel restrictions on them? But, apparently, it is not the persons who follow the proper protocols that are bring the virus back.. It is those who fly under the radar, so to speak. so maybe more Covid-19 Ambassadors need to be dispatched to ports to monitor who is leaving and returning to these islands. Then Immigration to may need to get involved.

Beware of purchasing covid tests and vaccines online!

Great investment! Make sure one is posted in the Northern Bahamas to monitor those sports fishing boats that come over every weekend and load up with the Country’s finest species of fish unchecked!

Tight pants Marvin Dames is on a battle for his political life. Maybe the time from now to elections will be one of no police killings. The focus will be on ‘slaying ‘ of political opponents?

A vaccination that was inspired by someone who believes the earth’s population needs to be reduced by 1/3. And that is the only way the elite can have a desired quality of like. And that he is an elite. And that the reduction should come from the workers. And that majority of people in this country, if not all, are workers. Keep your vaccines.
