Lol we saying we ain’t broke. You saying that you don t know 99% of the cases are mild? And that 99.8% people survive this. Are saying you don t understand that virus is a airborne and mask basically are effective as using a sock as a water bottle? Or maybe you do know this already!? Show us what you know. Because if you know this then you would the biggest threat to Bahamian health is the death of the economy and social systems that depend on it.
Taiwan as manufacturing country can afford to close down. There is no choice but for the Bahamas to open sooner and for the better. They only thing holding them back is they are gun shy and worried Bahamians traveling to the US . Economic collapse is imminent... they can t borrow any more money. They can t print any more money. There is no more money for food banks and unemployment benefits. When civil servants start getting pay cuts then the ***t will hit the fan..and for what? tourism aim t the issue... Mexico gets it, Dominican rep Gets it.
Bahamians are not going to the morgue years before their time the virus actuality trends towards natural mortality. That’s why co morbidity play such a crucial role COVID 19. And face covering don’t do much but act as a sponge thats increases the viral load. this thing is so small it sits in the air for about 5 mins after a sneeze leaks out of the germ rag. Virus is going to virus the only salvation is the god given immunity system of the young and healthy...and The reality that thing is only really maybe twice as bad as the flu. The social and economic impact is far far far more devastating,
Herd immunity threshold is more like 20-30%. We should have guessed that from a Princess Diamond when virus died out after 19.8% of ship was infected...again through out the usa (not to mention sweden Belarus Nicaragua) we see the miraculous decline in spite of limited lockdowns and no vaccines. ..anyway back to the Bahamas...great so 80,000 number is 20% of the pop - lucky guess..but suspect we are nearing the HIT soon...at least in nassau, probably reach in Gb already though Minnis might like to think his lockdown had something to do with it popular Family island inoculated themselves when spring break rolled in Feb/mar Probably why there aren’t any case in harbour island now or they smart enough to not get test. Spainish well snuck one by look like.
Does he think people are stupid? Just because you change the name doesn’t t make it any less appealing for the tourism market. If you re advocating testing staff then just test visitors for goodness sakes...3-5 days after entry and call it a day.
500+ people will die this year of vascular diseases In the Bahamas - which is pretty average given we re the 6th most obese nation on the planet. Vascular diseases also make up the most common co-morbidity. hmmm I wonder how many of these deaths that would have happened will Be recorded as COVID19 deaths? I wonder how many additional vascular deaths will be caused by stress of the lockdown and economic uncertainty. I know of 5 people with perilous health conditions that cannot get help because of inter island restrictions and backlogs in the health system. Every decision Minnis made has compounded the situation....
Well the other thing that happened after July 1 was testing became widely available. Prior to July no one was really tested - there was an average of 22 test per day now we re averaging 200-300 a day... COVID has been here in the shadows for a while we just were aware of it. This a panicdemic...casedemic..whatever...border control is pointless with community transmission - wash hands social distance take vitamin d.
Finally they separated deaths under investigation...still confusing though...two days ago they mentioned they classified one of the previously reported deaths and increased non COVID deaths by 1 but did not reduce COVID deaths total tally. Is this to mean COVID deaths is just gross number of investigated deaths rather than the persons that actually died of COVID?
Nothing regional about what mentioned here? Your point was? Rest of society lockdown by definition. There’s thing called Wikipedia it’s not great but helps...your welcome ;)
