Some are now claiming Corona and corona related deaths in the US are being grossly understated. The claim is that if one was to subtract the Corona deaths from this year’s total deaths, then compare the remaining total to last year’s over the same period, this year’s numbers exceed last year’s figures by 30 percent. What has caused an additional 30 percent increase in deaths in additional to Corona deaths over barely. Nine month period. Is it likewise in The Bahamas?

Derailment may be a good thing.

Reverse everything you just posted and then you have the truth. Running on with dribble does not discredit easily verifiable facts.. For example eRl Paso, Texas has seen their corona cases increase 500%. Florida is now seeing resurgence in their numbers and reintroducing restrictions the recently relaxed. And our own Bahamian islands that had all rights and freedoms restored and now seeing surges in corona cases and some even having first instances or increasing instances of Corona deaths. And if you want to attack snd discredit someone’s post, make sure you correlate your own to ensure you are not contradicting yourself. Case in point : if you disagree that this second wave of corona is not more stronger than the first one then how do you explain the additional hundreds of people here contracting the virus here and the additional hundreds of thousands of people around the world? And in the same vein if lockdowns are not effective, then explain why there are surges in populations that unlock their people after a lockdown, common sense is simple knowledge you know .

Attack and conquer. That Donald Trump BS doesn’t work here. Address the issues dummy, if I am spreading misinformation then point it out. Else keep your head in the clouds where the sky is blue and the clouds are above the sky.

So does Dr. Delon Brennen get paid in Bahamian or US currency?

we lead by example and follow likewise,

Don’t let the hogs out the fence.

Weekend lockdowns are not as effectively full lockdowns but they are effective in reducing the rate of corona transmission. They are like extended social distancing, where they break the chain of person to person contact. And any activity that breaks the person to person contact helps control the virus. And if persons develop symptoms during the period of lockdown they are on some isolation and not moving around spreading the virus. And they can be tested before returning to the community. The weekend lockdowns also aid with the strengthening and regeneration of individual immune systems. Persons who would otherwise be at work or out partying or in some other social activities are now at home in the rest and recuperation mode and their contact veith persons who may have or may have been exposed to the virus is restricted . And one cannot measure the effectiveness of the current weekend lockdowns with the previous full lockdowns . This new strain ( maybe strains) is/are stronger, more contagious and obviously more deadly. Some places that had no curfews or lockdowns or other safety measures are seeing their corona cases increase by 500 percent with corresponding increases in deaths . And they made no preparation for increased hospitalizations and are now facing a crisis. And of course here in this country , notice what is happening on islands like Eleuthera, Bimini and several other islands where full restrictions have been lifted. Imagine what will happen after November 1.. politics and science is political science

So how much is spent on road-building every year? There are thousands of Bahamian students who travel to and from school on foot and use the sidewalks. With the restricted bus system even more find themselves having to walk along busy traffic lanes. And when you walk through residential areas where there are no sidewalks, the sides of the road are filled with potholes that are full of water during the rainy season, and many persons have witnessed persons jumping out of buses or private vehicles into puddles of water of slipping in mud pools. Who are those who think the construction of sidewalks are non-essential? But when a road is in a state of disrepair then what, what wat?

Complete idiocy! As scientists foretold , the nature of covid-19 is progressive in that it gets striongrr, more contagious and more deadly with every wave. And furthermore, as it moves across populations and continents it mutates, becoming more difficult to contain and making previous treatments ineffective and obsolete. And whilst it started of targeting older people and persons who were predisposed the second wave is targeting younger and more healthy people . Dr Fauci was asked his opinion about schools remaining closed for another year. His response was that while, yes, young people have more resistance to the virus, the nature of the disease is such that no one knows what will happen if children became more exposed, like attending school every day. They may continue to be resistant to the virus, but take stronger strains of it home to their parents and grand parents. So bottom line. The world recognized scientist and expert is not in favor of schools opening at this time. Donald Trump suggested Dr. Fauci speaks garbage and hinted at him being fired. He referred to other colleagues of Dr Fauci as ‘idiots.’
