Ok. So, we don't have a clue the status of the 939. Added to that we are saying that some of them didn't stay the 5 days to require the test. So, the question is, could they have been positive during their stay and at the time of their departure? Next question, as Dr. Brennen said some of the 939 didn't stay 5 days or more, then why didn't we fine the remainder $1,000.00 or send them to jail for one month? Is the law here just fairytales or do we ever plan on enforcing it?

Did the Ministry of Health increase testing and contact tracing? That's the first question. So, if Grand Bahama was under a lockdown and th is controlled the numbers, why is there a sudden outbreak? If you reduced the numbers to a manageable level that means your testing should have caught up and the number of new cases should be very small. So, this suggests testing is not where it should be and contact tracing isn't where it should be either. So, the government is just waiting our time with lockdowns as they have not done their.job with testing and contact tracing.

This is so stupid. Clearly, the PM doesn't know what he is doing. You consult with all parties involved, them you make your decision. That way you avoid having to do a bunch of flip flops later.

Mr. Maynaed can't be serious with this bull. Why did the Tribune publish this garbage. All.of the persons involved in this abuse of taxpayers should be jailed. Is this why there was a fire at Clifton Pier? Is this why we have so many power outages? Is this why when issues arise it can't be fixed in a timely manner? We, the twxpers, are paying for this nonsense. Please audit BPL. Reduce staff immediately. Implement mandatory drug testing. Hire qualified people who are serious about their job.

So, we gave the Communications Officer from the Ministry of Health, strike one and the son of the AG (strike two). This is ridiculous. Then the PM has the nerve to go on tv and blast the rest of the country about non-compliance. Mr. PM get your house in order.

If you follow the US media, you would know that for a lot of voters Covid-19 wasn't the top issue. Voters chose Biden for a lot of reasons.

With regards to our Ministry of Health, nothing makes sense. We have a Minister not qualified for the role. We have health official giving us data that's not up to date, who are way behind in testing and are doing a poor job in contact tracing. Then we listen to a PM who should be a circus clown telling that we need to adhere to the protocols while he totally missed the WHO's recommendation of increased testing and increased contact tracing. If you don't identify who is infected and have them quarantined, how do you expect to control the problem. The PM stated yesterday we've cut the daily infections in half. What he left out is that, as stated above, we've reduced the number of testing. Also, two, he says this 50% reduction with pride but conveniently left out the positivity rate. Either he intentionally did that or he has no clue what the concept of having the virus under control means.

Web shops take advantage of people by selling the illusion they can get incredible returns on their money. So, maybe they need to make web shops illegal again.

On asues, there are issues with this as well as you're essentially dependent on the honesty of the person organizing it and those participating. You do run a risk of losing all that you've put into an asue unless the government is going to require depositors insurance. We know that's not going to happen.

It's dangerous that the DPM considers addressing what is perceived by him and some others as an issue without speaking to experts. A very reckless approach. Before he spoke, he should have facts in front of him. Another Minnis cabinet issue. Is anyone in this administration connected with reality or commonsense.

Lol.

So, they are closely monitoring an area that some guys were comfortable enough to go into and shoot 5 people. This senior officer should be quiet on this point. So, if you're not closely monitoring an area, it can turn into Afghanistan then.
