But worldwide and locally the data says younger people,but markedly less people are being infected. the data doesnt say its imposible for someoneone to experience severe symptoms. So far Ive heard about 3 people dying from.Omicroon. globally

No I dont think Omicron is a cold. I said its "bad enough" to have a common cold. I imagine COVID would be degrees above a cold on the discomfort scale even if "mild"

ThisIsOurs says...

Yup. this is the danger of Omicron. To be seen if its shortlived

I dont know why people make these statements. What if next week the CDC grounds all cruise ships? homeporting wont help theyre grounded

ThisIsOurs says...

apparently it looks like youre more wrong than ever

ThisIsOurs says...

The danger in Omicron is the number of people who are sick **at the same time**, specifically professions where remote work isnt possible. Imagine if there was an outbreak among garbage men and janitors, that would be a nightmare. Teachers, customs agents, flight attendants, teachers, renal care nurses and on and on.

If the cycle is short lived it'll be maybe a month of some inconveniences nationally. If longer then there would be economic impact. I note Air Canada has already cancelled a recently opened flight path. If the cruise ships stop when would they start again? etc etc

ThisIsOurs says...

what is their medical condition? One person experiencing ill effects (sorry theyre sick btw, even a common cold is a miserable thing) doesnt mean that generally there'll be severe symptoms

Know nothing about Dr Kovats so this statement is not about him.

But its clear to me that lots of unscrupulous characters pass through the Bahamas. Just because someone says they have money and want to do "someting" it doesnt mean we should engage them. It was absolutely shocking to hear a PM say ~*of course I knew this investor had been charged with fraud, whats new?* A talk show host then backed up Minnis by saying *everybody make mistakes*. Everyone else saw this guy and his shady deal a mile away. He went on to embarrass the PM and the country by forging a signature in the highest office in the land in front of the most senior officials in the land. This was the guy the PM and the host were fervently backing saying "look at all the money we could make". Same with the carnival fiasco, "its money". same with gaming, its money. same with Nygard "look at all the money". Same with the drug dealers, "look how generous they are". Where do ethics and character and principle fit?

ThisIsOurs says...

Ok. So were they asleep or were they partying?

We really need to start thinking for ourselves and stop repeating the global party line. This is not an anti-vax statement.

The evidence was there from the start that there had to be another solution. Because globally only 5% of the population contracted COVID. That should have been the angle of research, "**why**" werent the other 95% getting sick? not this vaccines for all that had some people ready to kill, starve and exile their fellow Bahamians

But the media locally kept glossing over the facts in their zeal to push vaccinations
