Went private at PMH years ago, room was disgusting plumbing didn't work etc etc but the real issue was the totally incompetant night nurse who refused to believe I was having an asthma attack . Without persistance on my wife's part I would have died. Added to which after surgery rare visits by nursing staff during day shift but you could hear them laughing and having a great time further down the corridor. Undoubtably many hard working and efficient nurses but quality of medical attention seems to vary .

And you really believe that an alternative party will wave a magic wand and anti vaxers will suddenly rush to be vaccinated, that covid will dissapear, that foreign lending institutions will forgive all the national debt and thousands of tourists will solve the problem. Oh add to that all the promises, new docks new hospitals glass window bridge, rebuilding Abaco GB and on and on. I guarantee a PLP gpvernment will not have any radical solutipn except to find new ways to tax the public. ( but that only comes after they have been elected, no mention before because its a vote looser)

KapunkiUp is exactly right. Being in power be it PLP or FNM is a well paid job with perks so governments all over the world rarely focus on what should be done rather what they think the public will tolerate. Look at the PLP candidate for south Eleuthera promising a state of the art hospital,,( where will the money come from). The old chesnut about education and opportunities for students. ( why hire cubans not trained in the subject they are to teach or often with limited ability to speak english and no interest in being integrated with the community) or some new Principals who are so jnsecure they just dictate as opposed to consult staff. Then there is the old farming / business chesnut. It seems that one Eleuthera has done what no government has ever been able to achieve.

And your learned solution is ??????????????? >Fact in the UK despite rises in infections, hospital admissions are way down as are deaths. You are correct there is no one fix all but a combination or vaccination, masks, social awareness and hand washing will go a long way. covid vaccine does not prevent you catching or passing the virus on but it DOES reduce greatly your chance of going into hospital and ICU. Look at PMH-over 400 un vaccinated, 10 one dose vaccinated and NO fully vaccinated admissions. Does that tell you anything. UK 95% hospital admissions aged under 40 are unvaccinated, does that tell you anything?

Funny , do you drink alcohol? Do you smoke? do you eat red meat? Do you take any medication? Do you breathe ? If yes to any of these then you probably on not aware of the long term effects if only that excessive smoking can kill many but not affect others. vaccinations do have an effect and alllow life to return to normality. secondly this is not a novel and experimental vaccine rather one built on the foundation work put in by scientists for Ebola and Mars many years ago. It has been tested on thousands of volunteers. Yes there will always be a small number of reactions to any vaccine long established or new but the overall benefits of these covid vaccines is indesputable. You just had an Exuma doctor die of covid who would most likely be alive if he had been vaccinated.

People as stupid as you would deny the holocaust even if you were to see bodies stacked up in front of you. Your and many others problem is you believes all this rubbish and false rumours spouted by Tikoc, Facebook and the like. You reckon this doctor is saying these things just for fun, to deceive people---to what end.
