No, my point was that based on the severity of the attack by 3 sharks and her having lost at least one limb, her chances of survival were virtually nonexistent. This does not excuse the absence of an appropriate first aid response (if true).
Survivability has to do with the severity of the attack and the involvement of major blood vessels which determines how quickly a person might go into shock from blood loss. I have first hand info that she was decimated by that attack. It is unlikely she could have survived, no matter where she was!
The family is grieving, emotional and looking for some solace, which is understandable!
They should be aware that people die in the great USA from shark bites all the time, with the very best in medical care and first responders. A first aid kit could not have changed the outcome in this case.
... if people are born gay then the logical inference is that people are born bisexual, pedophiles, celibate and philanders! Acts of sexual intimacy or abstinence is ALWAYS a choice!!
When you travel to certain countries you take on a certain amount of risk (which is why I won't go to Syria, Iran or North Korea). Same thing when you go where sharks live; there are inherent risks!

-$8 billion national debt with nothing to show for it, despite implementing VAT specifically for that purpose,
-Foreign interests dismantling our competitive edge in the financial services industry for their benefit with our help!,
-an undeterred silent invasion by uneducated, non English speaking, low skilled immigrants, and yes the list goes on and on.

What would be the point of having income tax without greater accountability and oversight of spending!
If resources in the past were better managed this country could have been so much better off without the massive national debt!
Income tax would fundamentally change nothing other than HOW government collects taxes!!!

Bahamians are not ready for a white prime minister just because he is white and might think he deserves it!!
Bahamians generally will vote for anyone who is sensible, relatable and will buy them enough Kalik!
