Dr Brenen said Friday morning that the Pm would make buying water and food illegal for a week? Strange I missed that.

As a JP who specializes in small funerals, and has a side job building houses with a consulting business as a part-time transaction specialist and early morning exerciser I see that I am immune from Covid..

I don't know what everyone is complaining about.

I'm donating my blood for science in exchange for groceries and cement this week.

Robert Shamosh, Holistica Destinations’ chief executive, in an e-mailed response to Tribune Business inquiries reaffirmed the company’s “commitment” to proceeding with an investment deemed vital to reversing Freeport’s years of economic and tourism decline despite COVID-19’s shutdown of the cruise ship industry.

“By 2022 we ought to be back into single digit unemployment; the end of 2022,” he argued. “There are a number of anchor projects on stream. There’s a huge project in Grand Bahama with Carnival’s cruise port, and Royal Caribbean and ITM at the Grand Lucayan.”

This clears most of it up.

The story doesn't say why they didn't do anything regarding the non-police in there, or what they intend to do about it. The story also doesn't say if they went through the formality of getting an explicit exemption by the competent authority.
