Not sure I would go that far given that he was born in Miami and chose to live the much greater portion of his life in the U.S. Grant you though, he was kind enough to let himself be "claimed" by The Bahamas.

They could find many thousands more infected if they did more testing, but what's the point of doing so. Testing certainly doesn't make anyone any better. And besides, setting aside those who may be deathly ill for whatever reason, not even the most vulnerable among us in terms of old age, obesity and other pre-existing conditions really want to risk catching the Communist Red China Virus or one of its variants by going to a hospital or health clinic.
We need to get all the public schools fully open for classroom learning and teachers and education administrators who do not support doing so should be told to look for another job.
USA needs to drop all travel bans and testing requirements because they are not supported by the science, are outright discriminatory and are now being used for political purposes alone. US citizens have allowed themselves to become serfs of their Federal government.
