The number of so-called intelligent individuals obviously ignorant to the fact that many top medicines are derivatives of plants or synthetic versions of plants is astounding!

Worldwide, between 50,000 and 80,000 flowering plants are used medicinally (IUCN Species
Survival Commission, 2007; Marinelli, 2005). In the United States, of the top 150 prescription drugs, at least 118 are based on natural sources: 74 percent come from plants, 18 percent from fungi, 5 percent from bacteria, and 3 percent from vertebrate species such as snakes or frogs (Ecology Society of America, 1997).

Contrary to PM Minnis's totally irresponsible, very stupid, misleading, statement that "bush medicines don't work on COVID-19", the Ministry of Ayush (India) has collaborated with the U.K.'s London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine (LSHTM) to conduct a study on ‘Ashwagandha’ (Withania somnifera) for promoting recovery from covid-19.

a Ministry release said that the All India Institute of Ayurveda (AIIA), an autonomous body under the Ministry of Ayush, and the LSHTM recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding to conduct clinical trials of ‘Ashwagandha’ on 2,000 people in three U.K. cities — Leicester, Birmingham, and London (Southall and Wembley).

‘Ashwagandha’ (Withania somnifera), commonly known as ‘Indian winter cherry’, is a traditional Indian herb that boosts energy, reduces stress and makes the immune system stronger. It is an easily accessible, over-the-counter nutritional supplement in the U.K. and has a proven safety profile. The positive effects of ‘Ashwagandha’ have been observed in Long COVID, which is a multi-system disease with no evidence of its effective treatment or management.

Instead of looking down on and dismissing the Rastafarians' report, we should be hurriedly investigating what they are doing differently that protect them from COVID-19! Had this man been of a lighter hue, with blue eyes, the response would have been markedly different!

Even more astounding is the number of people that willingly swallow hook, line, and sinker, anything from a so-called leader's mouth without questioning or 10-minute self-investigation to find the truth for themselves. **You people are dangerously scary!!**

This is why the Bahamas could never have an effective Freedom Of Information Act while the PLP or FNM rule the country.

Both parties are equally corrupt, so resolving corruption is an impossibility that would mean too many "elites" past and present would end up in jail!

We must as a country vote in independents and, or 3rd parties regardless.

One thing we know for sure is the PLP and FNM have unquestionably failed us, so anyone else certainly cannot do much worse!!

Lol....cry, point fingers, play stupid, dodge, duck, & hide all they want. PLP and FNM are unquestionably equally corrupt!

I wouldn't vote for either gang of pirates!!

In Iceland half of those hospitalised have been vaccinated. Some US states report up to 74% of those vaccinated are infected, BUT in the Bahamas they really expect us to believe the opposite is happening here!

While government is trying to shove the vaccine down everyones throats, the most egregious thing is the one sided reporting that totally omits the deaths and injury caused by the vaccines and the huge ongoing protest against it in Europe!

This lop sided reporting causes a lot more hesitancy than anything else because it makes people believe even more so that the government isn't being honest.

Trusting government has ALWAYS proven to be a bad idea as evidenced by the state of our country and majority of citizens.

People are partying and mingling like COVID was over! The numbers should skyrocket in another 2 weeks.

**s-u-r-p-r-i-s-e**.........This government is just as **L-O-U-S-Y** as the PLP!!

Lol......This clown also told us NOT to wear N95 mask and band them, while he and his people ran around wearing them!. Now the American "experts" are begging people to wear them indoors.

Trusting politicians and the media has ALWAYS proven to be a bad idea. Why the hell would anyone think they should trust them now?

For 5 full years Davis couldn't find a plan to stop fires at the dump. Now he want's us to believe he can find a plan to protect the country?

This man think we're as dumb as conch!!

50 years of failure yelling "see me here" at the hospital and people still stanch PLP and FNM supporters.

I wonder how many stanch PLP & FNM supporters got wet up and need medical attention, food assistance, and housing right now and can't get it?
