@rawbahamian, I don't understand why they continue to talk. They are a corrupt bunch and really need to go and hide themselves! They raped this country.
Scabies is highly contagious, all it takes is one infected child to spread it to his/her family. The child can be from a wealthy family and still end up taking it back to his/her home. Once a child attends school and has close contact with classmates, this disease is inevitable. It transcends socioeconomic status.
it is important and I did not read it in the article, that once a home becomes infected, and the treatment has been applied, all bedding MUST be washed in hot water. The home should be cleaned/disinfected so that the mite is destroyed.
To the author's credit, "**no one wants to leave home unless home is the mouth of a shark**". When people leave their country of birth in huge numbers, it must really be bad. They can no longer endure the pain and suffering that they are experiencing and have determined that the risks of leaving, pale in comparison to what they are suffering. You can't help but feel compassion for people in that situation. However, the author must live in an **alternate reality** if she thinks that as a nation, we can afford to accept those migrants in the numbers that they are coming. As many have said, we can barely afford to feed ourselves or manage our crumbling economy, so there is no way, a country of 300,000 people can take on those numbers. There is also the thought of being outnumbered. The average Bahamian has about 2 children, the average Haitian has at minimum double that number. What will our population look like in 20 years!
Exactly @DDK, at whose expense? Why couldn't they bury them in a mass grave in Abaco? Doesn't it cost the taxpayers to transport all those bodies to Nassau for burial? Such a waste of funds.
