I think that Dr. Minnis has pride issues. Clearly he doesn’t trust anyone if his own cabinet members have no clue what he’s going to do next. Frankly it’s embarrassing. We have a stubborn leader who has surrounded himself with people who only feed his ego and are incapable of telling him that he’s an emperor with no clothes. He needs to drop his pride, diversify his ‘advisors’ and get this country back on track to beating this virus or he will be the first PM in Bahamian history that’s ousted without a general election. Frankly the Bahamian people are tired!!!

Went to Lowe’s to pick up a hygiene product. The product comes in several sizes and various prices. I was informed that they are only doing curbside service. Since they do not have a website where I can view and order the product I asked how I was supposed to buy a product that I had not seen. I had to stand there and take a wild guess as to which one I wanted and wait for an employee to run inside and bring it out to me. It wasn’t what I wanted so the employee had to go back inside again and bring another product. I as the paying customer did not have the luxury of actually going into the store to choose the product myself. After returning, out of sheer frustration I settled for it and then Had to hand the employee the funds and wait for them to run back inside and pay the cashier and get my change. So a simple 10 minute trip turned into 20. If this is what retailers have to resort to to get their products sold then we are in big trouble as a country. Mind you I could easily have dispensed with the inconvenience and go to any food store and pay more without the hassle.

We have to rethink these orders and stop curry favoring who we allow to open and close. The same virus that the curbside retailer is avoiding can be found in the food store that’s being allowed to open down the street.

And the saga continues.... more losses than gains with these last minute lockdowns and business closures. Do you still think the competent fool is trying to save lives??? I think he’s out to destroy them.

I too would love to know who these tourist called at such short notive.

We need to stop with the double standard. Seems to me that if there are going to be exceptions to the rule, then a contact information should be given in your so-called order for exceptions. But we all know it’s not based on that. It’s based on who you are and your connections and to hell with the rest!!

This man is drunk with power. He fancies himself to be running a country full of preschool kids and he’s their little teacher that gets to spank them when they misbehave. While he’s playing control games the economy is shot and going to hell in a hand basket and because his government has no bailout plan he can only focus on playing mind games with a virus that 99.9% of us never had and likely won’t get unless her proceeds with his stupid plan to allow the tourist to bring it and then he gets to start all over again locking us down and playing preschool. Where is a general election when you need one????

if this goes through, our population will increase overnight by the thousands. Here comes very anchor baby born to Jamaicans, Haitians, Americans, etc and living all over the world for their papers. The judge has opened a pandora's box with this ruling and I smell an agenda. What worries me is the AG is so weak. Hasn't been too successful against Fred Smith and his kind. Mr. Munroe will eat him alive on Appeal. The PM has to appoint someone with sense to deal with this - pronto!

It’s bad when you have to plead with a Government to let you reopen so that you won’t go belly up. It’s like they are blind and cannot see. What kills me is 99.99% of us won’t ever get Covid but get to stand helplessly by and watch the economy tank.

This curbside purchase of clothing is totally foolish. I recently tried shopping for an article of clothing and was told to go online and look at the item and the store owner would meet me outside with the item I picked. Needless to say, it was impossibly to just look at the item to determine if it would fit and the sales clerk refused to let me inside to try it on. I ended up driving away in frustration and tried another store that actually let me inside. Although I didn’t purchase an item it definitely was easier to touch and actually try the clothing. I just wonder whose bright idea it was to allow clothing stores to sell only on the curbside. The first store clerk appeared to be afraid and frustrated. The second clearly threw caution to the wind. People doing what they have to do including breaking the law to make a dollar. I agree that the curbside clothing sales cannot work. Why pay for brick and mortar and hold thousands of dollars in stock just to have someone sound outside and purchase. It’s foolish.

I have never seen anything so confusing. The first covid case shows up around March 20 and the whole country is put on lockdown. So how is it you have a whole person die from covid and it takes you almost 2 months to lock a small tightly knit island down? I don’t get the rationale. I agree with the resident who said the people who have it will still have it in two weeks. It obviously took a month for the first case after the lady’s death to show up so what is a two week lockdown stopping? I agree that they need to keep testing unless they running out of test kits and don’t want to admit it.
