Very careless, how could 200 Medics, the army on the front line of the battle (COVID-19) be put in a position to be taken hostage. The General in charge of this battle operation should be removed, all we need now is one more careless move like this and we would be captured to COVID-19.
I am really trying to understand the rationale of the 24hr curfew when all these entities that are allowed to be open now and drawing the gathering of hundreds of persons together without any distancing, it makes no sense, the country might as well go back to the way we did business before the curfew which at that time never had long lines waiting in the sun and for hours and hours to be served and persons being huddled up together like cattle. The government might as well invest in acquiring sufficient masks for the people (a few million) distribute them to all citizens and let it be business as usual with masks on in public as a mandatory requirement. Only ten people allowed to a funeral or wedding but hundreds at food stores, hardware stores, auto stores, etc. We need a PLAN yesterday not tomorrow. He who fails to plan; plans to fail. There are new cases popping up daily, and no clear path to how to eradicate this pandemic and get the country back on track. we need a workable plan immediately or we will be dommed:
I think the masks are to stop others from coughing, sneezing or spitting on someone else, the virus does not float thru the air and can be breathed in, the purpose of wearing the masks in public is that individuals don't cough, sneeze or spit on one another by accident.
I hope this is not true that the RBPFwill be conducting roadblocks or checking every driver identification, this will be a disaster, worst than the food store lines. I do agree that the people of the Bahamas need to know and if they don't I sure as hell would like to know "what is the plan man"? Right now we are moving all over the place like a headless chicken before death. One day this is enforced then changed, the next time something is enforced then changed or altered or some added confusion introduced. Whoever is in charge of, or managing this project (covid-19 elimination and recovery) without a plan is lost. From a building contractor's perspective, a plan is the only way to construct a sound and properly built structure it can't be that the structure is complete and then you realize that no electricity is provided for and must now go back and rectify the situation. Managing a project this way makes no sense and waste valuable time. Yes, a plan is needed. He who fails to plan, plans to fail.
The Bahamas needs another source of income. The Bahamas needs a turbo boost to take us out of this present crisis, further and beyond. Whether oil is this source or not one thing is certain. Tourism is and has been maxed-out, the financial sector is beyond maxed out and fast disappearing. All in all, we have another 5000 persons leaving school and are eligible to enter the job market this year. If the Bahamas thinks to concentrate on a maxed-out Tourism and a maxed-out financial sector is going to get us there, then only heaven can save us ALL:
From one who knows, (my five cents) alcohol "Firewater" is a social stimulator, when persons drink they always seem to want to socialize, talking and mingling in close proximity to each other and all fired up, for social distancing and order that will be a disaster, now on the other hand cannabis usually has the opposite effect.
All our government leaders should be ashamed (1974-2020), in the USA all and every material needed for the upkeep is either readily available or easy to find and is cheaper than when living in Nassau so there is no excuse for our embassy to be in such a state. When looking from outside we are only a front but when looked at from inside we are fake.
The Bahamas must find a way to be ready to open up and get persons back to work, the money that's circulating in the community since the lockdown is just old money circulating amongst us. We need new money coming in, in order for us to move forward, onward, upward together to getting persons working. Three or four months of this and we will be on the verge of eating grass and i don't mean the well-loved cannabis
