Asympyomatic transmission is rare. More concerning (Not really concerning because this is a mild desease) is that most symptoms - fever, headaches are easy mask with over the counter medication. So ultimately you just have rely on honesty. And at that point what’s the point.

Power is intoxicating....humble pie is bitter..

@bob Immunity is always fleeting why else does the flu jab change each year? Asympyomatic are as high 70% but it’s stigma, price, discomfort and ultimately loss of income associated with testing which insures many cases go undetected.

Nassau is highly dense population and there is a huge stigma to positive results and therefore no incentive to get tested even if you are symptomatic. Asymptotic rates are possible as high as 4/5, but cdc holds to 50%, the other percentage simply would not have got tested unless they feel really ill. Two weeks loss of wages, for you and anyone you ve come in contact with...your place of work shut down, even the cost of pcr test and discomfort of having someone jam a stick up your nose discourageS people get tests. Simple as that...

Flu vaccines only last a year. Immunity is fleeting it’s the nature of the beast. Covid is here to stay it’s already mutated but each time less deadly.

Glad to hear you changing your tune - that talk of a deadly mutated C19 Was a bit much ;)

Hint: hotels in harbour have reservations

This is hilarious.. Check out the MIN "Town hall" on eleuthera. Slides at 19.45 Spanish Wells had 38 cases out of 111 antigen tests conducted. Positivity rate of over 30% and no lockdown... Rules for some, others get none...

Lockdown Unlikely- look how they are treating Harbour Island, Spanish well and eleuthera. Spanish wells had over 40 cases last week and no lockdown. Government is clueless they are using lockdowns as a punitive placebo selectively not hitting tourist destinations...Eleuthera basically has no hotels open so it's convenient to LD and send a message that they've doing something.. As soon as Bahamar opens there won't be a lockdown no matter how high cases get - not that they will - we're seeing the same curve collapse that we see in other global hotspots once infections get to a certain threshold - Chicago, NY, Stockholm, Madrid..to name a few.. 20-40% and we're done.. Everything else is driven by oversensitive PCR tests picking up viral remnants.

Exactly, 6 weeks ago I predicted that once cases got between 5 - 6k (equivalence of probably 50 and 60k once you include undetected cases.) Which is exactly between 20 and 30% of populations.... And Voila here we are....20-40% is the estimated HIT for those not buying into the scaremongers 80% threshold. We are witness the natural Phenomena of Herd Immunity (Which may not last for long) but we saw the same thing in grand Bahamas same thing. Cases dropped once 20-30% of Freeport population were infected. Bimini the same thing. It has nothing to do with lockdowns or masks or any government policy. There is no correlation. The only correlation is the level of infection. We see the exact same thing in countries of similar population size. - Maldives, Iceland, Malta...
