Provide the link please. You know the CDC and the WHO are not the same thing, right? Do you believe the only reason they get hospitalized is because a test says positive? You don't even live in the US but somehow your view is so US centric that you are not aware that other countries do their own thing? Biden is the defacto ruler of the whole world? He's going to stop the virus in South Africa, in Italy, Peru?

You link does not say anything about PCR positive tests and not being a Covid case

Finally, someone who says the cake eating phrase correctly!

Total BS! These 'Original Swimming Pig' people are scammers. They don't own the pigs and can't even prove who owns the cay.

What a horse s**t statement. Only there to make it look like they aren't trying to ride the coat tails of the people who built the industry. They see someone make something good for our little country and can't help but try and 'get a little something for themselves' without doing any work. Anyone who knows the actual history of the swimming pigs and who started it and how they did it knows this is BS!

46% no compliance is probably the average for our country. Probably close to 46% of businesses don't pay their business licence and VAT, about the same probably never pay their NIB. Probably about the same with the number of times cops takes bribes instead of writing tickets, murders unsolved, children not getting an education. On and on. We live in a country of slackness and somehow now we expect this testing to be 100%. When was the last time we did anything at 100%?

So your US aquaintances are as inept at organizing themselves as Daniel (should really have signed it Karen). Consider our entry procedures as sort of a litmus test, if you can't manage to organize yourself to get here then you'll be too stupid to follow rules once you are here.

What's up with these letters to the editor, and why does the Tribune keep publishing them? Daniel claims to live in Shrewsbury, New Jersey and has to drive for an hour to get to a clinic for a test? That's BS. It take less than a hour to drive from Shrewsbury to downtown NY city. $275 for a test? That's also BS. New Jersey if offering free testing throughout the state.

Every couple of days a new letter with the exact same complaints and overly scolding attitude of entitlement. It's like the same person keeps writing them, and of course the Tribune just publishes without much thought.

The incubation period is not 2 weeks. It's a mean time of 5 days and a 95% confidence window of 3-8 days and 99% confidence at 14 days to show symptoms. Once symptoms present 99% of cases are recovered within 14 days.

The people who will go to Cuba are not the people who travel here. Cuban vacations are dirt cheap compared to what our cheapest offerings. We are one of the most expensive destinations in the Caribbean. The countries losing out to Cuba for tourists will be the other low cost markets, the DR, Jamaica, Mexico. The people who have enough money to spend on our expensive product already had options for cheaper trips.

You are absolutely correct, but I fail to see what that has to do with someone complaining that they can't manage to organize themselves enough for 5 days to visit another country in the midst of a pandemic.
