… this is what should apply to cruise ship passengers for ships registered in our waters as well. But then again our leaders and decision makers are not that bright!!
… unfortunately it cannot because the virus survives on certain surface for at least five days and people can have asymptomatic spread for at least 10-14 days. So the shut down should be at least 2 weeks minimally!
By social distancing you reduce the opportunity for the virus to jump from one person to another! That is why it is absolutely necessary!!!
The government has yet to explain HOW the virus got into the island and refuses to offer this information! ! Nobody travelled etc., but yet the virus shows up?Things that make you go ummm! So of course there are more infections there!
.. the government foolishly encourage flights into the islands AFTER the virus was confirmed in Nassau. That was dangerously stupid. Once those islands had no flights or boats going into them they would have no concerns about infections spontaneously arising and people would have been free to move around freely as they chose! Too little, too late!!
People forget the incompetence Minnis displayed as Minister of Health during the dengue chikungunya virus debacle that caused many deaths in 2011, so I don't know why they expect stellar leadership at this time!
The short memories of Bahamians is what all politicians rely on!
In addition, what else does her family believe they are deserving of? She knowingly went to a Covid-19 zone and got infected. She then developed symptoms while she had asthma and declined rapidly, as people with this virus do. Blaming others for her decision and the consequences of traveling does not change the outcome!
