Based on the lack of testing taking place, the real question to ask is how many deaths have and are happening from respiratory causes that are NOT confirmed COVID 19, if any!
Have a seat little man. No one cares what you have to say! Even Minnis with all his failings has a better chance of being re-elected simply because YOU are the leader of the opposition! Do something in the national interest and step down!
I certainly do not agree with drilling for oil in our waters (too much can go wrong), but how likely is the US to listen to our concerns about their drilling near our waters? They wouldn't give us the time of day!
… sorry, but the family islands have no immunity from the virus and would be devastated by cases since they have no hospital, medical staff or ventilators if needed. The ones with no cases can be opened to the local economy, but no visitors can be allowed, not even from Nassau. This is a major problem!
For those who believe in the power of prayer, lets pray that our PM gets an infusion of heavenly wisdom! We have seen how well he has done without it!!
Even before any budget cuts government should review and cancel any multimillion dollar contracts (where they won't be penalized), if possible. $17 million on drones never seemed like a good idea!
They should then consider getting rid of the national health program (NHI) and other such social entitlement programs which is a drain of multiplied millions on the Treasury! Its time to trim the fat or let the ship sink!
@Clamshell… the option is to test BEFORE coming here (as noted above) and bring an official document, if not then test when they have arrived and make a decision from there (not being able to leave the property is an option)!

How come the emergency room has not been closed yet since I suspect all hospitalized COVID-19 cases would have gone there first!

It is sad when hopelessness gets so bad that people can see no other way out!
I suspect the cause of death is hanging, but I'll leave that to the experts!
