Your so fullnof bs. "Kids don't get sick" so amongst hundreds of young people inder 40 a child of 5 died from covid.. You need to go to hospital (ICU) and watch those unlucky enough to have covid gasping to breathe, In the UKZ 95% of covid hospital admissions are under 40. I do agree there is no one complete solution but every little helps especially vaccination.

Given the. Lack of funds plus the overweight bloated civil service he will be lucky to see one penney. Why not garnish the wages of those responsible.

Unfortunately any position of leadership attracts personal vendettas, untruths, lies, distortions. Nobody is perfect and politics is such that the opposition both local and higher up rarely praise anything good that is achieved but make a rapid appearance to criticize. Another factor be it a PLP or FNM member of Parliament is the lack of government resources allocated to each constituency and the lack of visible improvements. Leadership at any level can be a depressing task given the behind your back often unfounded criticism day and night.

Astra Zenica and Phizer have had a substantial effect in the UK by reducing intensive care treatment and deaths. and against the so called Indian variant. Most hospital admissions are now younger people who have NOT been vaccinated. Most viruses mutate and the flue vaccine administered every year to the elderly is tweaked ever year to meet the virus mutations. As for the blood clot risk that is touted, in every country every day women who take the pill,. Long Haul flight passengers and hospitalized patients have blood clots often fatal. As another example every day in the approx 10 UK citizens under the age of 35 die of unexplained cardiac arrest yet many attribute this to a host of unproven causes. Obviously taking or not taking the vaccine is a personal choice but the rumours that have been circulated in the media have painted a confusing picture, but if you have ever witnessed a person gasping for breath or on a ventilator or suffering from long covid then isn't vaccination worth the small risk involved.

Another RBDF boat to end up on a reef,

Unfortunately the Bahamas suffers from people in authority who suffer from a severe case of save my own arse syndrome, meaning I won't make a decision in case I loose my job so pass it (maybe) higher up the food chain where the same disease exists.

Surely a condition of allowing a foreign company to operate would be the guarantee to train suitable Bahamian employees to opetate, maintain and repair this equipment,

Once again an innacurate statement. British scientists have suggested that under 40 year olds should be offered an alternative. In reality you have a greater chance of a blood clot by taking the birth control pill, a long haulflight
being bed bound in hospital and for a multitude of other medical problems.

What on earth has this to do with the passing of another human being ?

I empathsize with this young officer and the inmates living and working in disgusting conditions, but why this refusal en mass to take the vaccine. .Vacines and most if not all medicines may cause a reaction in a small percentage of individuals yet we still take them.and the odds of catching and dying from covid are far greatet than a blood clot.
