you're right about the problems in our own system, like counterfeit and parallel market medicines coming in here causing a big risk to our health, and then the public hospitals and clinics always running out of essential meds. if the government was focused on us, they would focus on stuff like that instead of makin this their priority right now
The stem cell bill in parliament prohibits the use of embryonic stem cells in the bahamas. who knows if that will actually be adhered to, but thats what the bill says about that part of the issue
just as long as mitchell remembers this isn't some personal battle between him and the united states. this is his 2002 term as minister repeated all over again, and once again with cuban detainees
well thats on them i guess; whatever they decide to do with their party. i try to stay away from those kinds of fights. most of us regular folk just want to see some sense in parliament or see the opposition get royal about some of the other things that dey already voted yes to thats killing us, like all these taxes and fees!!!
In other words, you have absolutely no understanding whatsoever of the subject matter you are discussing, and because you are not able to defend the indefensible regarding Dr. Minnis' decisions while as health minister and now his position as opposition mp, you decide to run on with what kind of leader for the PLP obie or brave would be?? lol! Its okay; most of us here understand that you dont understand the science or the politics of this and simply wish to defend Dr. Minnis - which again, is totally your right. too bad you couldn't actually defend him, but atleast you tried. you think someone is knocking mr. minnis and the fnm for approving the freeport thing when in my case, im not. im saying they had all ability to approve it, nothin was wrong with them approving it - all minnis had to do was explain that to the country instead of having people think his own party broke some kind of law or something. what does he stand to gain by having the plp misrepresent what his own party did while he was minister???? end of the day though, most people are sick of dis issue. dese guys all need to get back to matters that are immediately affecting the bahamian people.
its also obvious you dont know the details of this whole dragged out story. no specific facility is being proposed by the plp yet, so there is nothing to compare "whats proposed for the bahamas" to yet. the only approved facility in the country so far is the one in freeport, and that is for cardiac stem cell therapies
the untruth he has spoken is there is no regulatory system in the bahamas to deal with stem cell research or therapies - which is what the bill is about. the facilty he approved is for stem cell therapies, the very same thing in this same story he says he absolutely opposes. its obvious you support dr. minnis which is totally in your rights but its also obvious you are not able to argue away his hypocrisy in this and that is because you cannot. had he not withheld from the public the fact that regulations and oversight systems already exist without even the need for this plp bill, he would not stand as a hypocrite today. today he says we should def not do therapies, but he approved therapies! you cant run away from that even though you support him, as is your right to do.
