I see no problem in the (BCC), or any other Bahamian group, having a viewpoint on issues regarding our country’s fight in this COVID 19 pandemic, as it is a Bahamian democratic right. However, I believe that authorities and leaders of government, have a duty to ensure that any ‘council’ or ‘influence’ placed before them, by any person or group, is:
1) Rooted in strong scientific based facts and or evidence. 2) Promoting societal/human wellbeing, in a fair, equal and ‘demonstrable’ manner. 3) Promoting democratic values (ie. Freedom, equality etc). 4) Not acquiring special privileges or unjustified authority.
