You have to read the study!! " The government policy of full lockdowns (vs. partial or curfews only) was strongly associated with recovery rates (RR=2.47; 95%CI: 1.08–5.64). Similarly, the number of days to any border closure was associated with the number of cases per million (RR=1.04; 95%CI: 1.01–1.08). This suggests that full lockdowns and early border closures may lessen the peak of transmission, and thus prevent health system overcapacity, which would facilitate increased recovery rates.
I am sure you realize you are quoting a letter to the editor from an Assistant Professor who has written articles on "nanomedicine, immune metabolism, cancer, sepsis and pulmonary biology. How can you give any credence to this nonsense?
Just an Idea from an outsider. In other countries including the U.S. the oil industry itself MUST fund a Nonprofit (please note: nonprofit) company which has experts in spills AND will rush in barges, well drilling equipment, mechanical booms etc. The Group in the states is called MSRP and as they are funded by the oil company's they are like fire departments but are oil spill experts. Just a thought.
The Bahamas should be number 1 in solar and at least consider wind in the areas where applicable. I will never understand why you are not a major provider of at least solar power.
Rolling Stone article, "In the deck, Ja Rule and McFarland are listed as co-founders, with the rapper responsible for “overall business strategy, guiding creative and facilitating artist relations.” In a statement last Friday, the rapper declared, “This is not my fault but I’m taking responsibility.
Just curious, what would be the option if the Government did not step in? Wynn, was out and Hutchinson was to pull out, take all the assets there and just let it sit. No one was interested in doing anything with it. No buyer was anywhere in it's current state.
To all those who are so upset about what has transpired, what would you have suggested considering there were no interested parties that were even remotely interested?
The pessimist complains about the wind. The optimist expects it to change. The realist adjusts the sail.” William A. Ward
Matthew (5:38-42) in the New Testament, Jesus repudiates even that notion. "Ye have heard that it hath been said, An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth: But I say unto you, That ye resist not evil: but whosoever shall smite thee on thy right cheek, turn to him the other also.
