As a white American male... I'm more than happy to accept 100k Afghan refugees to our country. The people of Afghanistan are no different than you and I. Most of them simply want the same things in life that we do -- a good home, go to school, get a job, build a family, etc, etc. The fact that American is made up of immigrants is what makes us special. We are a Melting Pot after all.
The point of the vaccine is to keep you out of the hospital and off a breathing machine. The point of the vaccine ISN'T to keep you from getting the virus nor spreading it.
The key phrase in my comment was "if you are a Doctor." As you know, a Doctor is typically someone that is very highly educated -- 4 years of undergrad, 4 years of medical school, and then several years of being a Resident Doc. For a Doctor to flat-out NOT take the vaccine -- causes me to question their intelligence in regards to medicine and questions their ability to be a doctor.
Ohhhhh geez! If you are fully vaccinated, the online process to get the Bahamas Health Visa is actually very simple and only takes 5 minutes. I've personally completed this process on two occasions in the past 4 months for myself, my wife, and two teenage daughters. Again, that is IF you are fully vaccinated. If you are vaccinated, the process is more cumbersome. As for cost, if you are fully vaccinated, the cost if $45 per person. If you aren't fully vaccinated, the cost is $65 per person. To me, the only "issue" with the online Health Visa is the cost -- not necessarily the process of getting it approved.

I've done it twice online over the past few months. Both times, it was approved in literally 10 minutes or less. It was super easy and quick.
