It would be most interesting to know how many total non-crime related deaths have been recorded by our public healthcare system since the first recorded covid-19 death, i.e. total deaths from health issues whether or not related to covid-19. Has there been an explosive increase in the number of flu related deaths not attributable to covid-19?
The bodies certainly won't be swept out to sea this time to conveniently help keep the death toll on the very low side.
Joining the WTO would only benefit us if the ruthless Xi-led communist regime allows us to imposed the highest tariffs imaginable on their exports to us of lethal pathogens that they've allowed to be bio-engineered, tested on their own people and then exported (unleashed) from within their own country to the rest of the world. Of course, in addition to the mega billions of dollars of tariffs, we would also want an ample supply of the vaccinations and serums developed by the very exclusive and elusive individuals within the ruling club of less than 20.
A lot of really dumb things are now being done by people whose knowledge of virology is non-existent or very limited at best. Most people cannot begin to fathom just how infinitesimally small (very very very very minute) the covid-19 virus is. Only the very rare person who has had the opportunity to look at and study both the size and behaviour of viruses under an electron microscope will appreciate that homemade (non-medical) masks provide the wearer with very limited, if any, meaningful protection from a virus like covid-19 that is capable of aerosol transmission. Masks made to stringent medically required specifications and properly fitted to the wearer's face help prevent the transmission of viruses by normal inhalation and exhalation at the outer edges of the mask. Not so in the case of homemade masks.
Moreover, it is very much open to question whether wearing any type of homemade mask does any better a job at protecting others from an infected person than would be achieved by an unmasked person simply coughing or sneezing into their elbow. Also, coughing is a natural defense mechanism that protects the respiratory tract from inhaling foreign bodies and it's not entirely clear the extent to which wearing a homemade mask may stifle that ability and therefore actually be harmful to the wearer.
It's perhaps worth noting too that the covid-19 virus has exceptional glue-like stickability to just about anything it comes into contact with. Those using any kind of mask must ensure it has been very carefully sterilized/sanitized before each use and the average user of a mask will not have either the discipline or ability to do this at home.
And of course Minnis and Sands, both being medical doctors, no doubt know all of this.
Unfortunately there are some who believe once you've cast your vote you've had your say and must keep quiet until the next election. It's as if they believe the voting citizenry are somehow not entitled to express their personal views and opinions about the conduct and performance record of a government between elections. They are wrong and you are right so I suggest you just leave it at that whenever they throw darts your way. In any event, 9 out of 10 of them have at one time or another been allowed a seat on the government's gravy train which usual tends to taint their view of any voiced opposition or criticsm targeted at the hand that has fed them and may feed them again.
Whatever our government does, it should neither put funds in the hands of Sidney Collie nor give him control of funds or any say regarding to whom funds should be distributed. This man has a well known track record of not paying his bills and taxes in the Bahamas, having royally 'burned' countless local creditors by peddling his political influence within the FNM party. He's about as crooked as they come and the US Department of State has a three-inch thick dossier on him to prove it. The dossier is full of complaints filed by Americans whom he has financially screwed in one way or another. Frankly, Sidney Collie is an embarrassment to our country and one of the reasons why our relations with the US government have been so unnecessarily strained in recent years. Collie's ambassador appointment to the US by Minnis has rightfully caused the US government to seriously question Minnis's own integrity.
P.S.: And no I'm not a fiction writer. Most Bahamians I suspect are unaware that at least 3 different strains of covid-19 have already been indentified. Each strain is a subtle mutation of the original virus, which gives it extraordinary resiliency and infectiousness in the particular environment it has adapted to, e.g. Asia & Western North America; Europe, Middle East & Eastern North America; and so on. The ability of cover-19 to easily mutate and adapt will make it next to impossible for a bullet proof vaccination to be developed, as is very much the case now for the annual flu vaccination shots funded by governments/taxpayers around the world. And as one might suspect, the highly secretive club of less than 20 is heavily invested in top secret R&D of vaccinations and serums (serology) where they stand to greatly enhance their already monstrous personal financial empires while at the same time achieving levels of control over mankind beyond their wildest dreams. Many in the global ruling group of less than 20 amassed unimaginable riches from their control over the military industrial complex for decades. But all of those nuclear aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, battle ships, fighter jets, drones, tanks, missile weapon systems, etc. purchased by governments/taxpayers at outrageous inflated prices have now essentially been made worthless. The ruling group have finally pivoted away from military equipment and weapons systems to the creation and control of a whole new kind of less messy and far more effective warfare involving lethal pathogens. Through the creation of specialized types of pathogens they will soon be able to cull the world's population in just about anyway they deem appropriate to 'save' the planet and mankind. At the same time they will literally mint new great fortunes for themselves with their new found power to decide who lives and who dies through their creation and control of vaccinations and serums vital to sprotecting human life from the very same pathogens that they created (bio-engineered) in the first place. Mankind's civil liberties and rights in democratic societies will of course never be the same again. New laws are coming that will strip us of the many freedoms we took for granted in ways that we could never have imagined in this new age. Truly scary!
