Sloppy is putting it very lightly. The government was so concerned about saving the economy and tourism in Sept/Oct that we are now seeing the knock-on effect of opening our borders and not requiring returning residents to pre-test before they boarded a flight back to Bermuda. That decision in addition to complacency led to this spiraling out of control. How did Cayman do so well you ask? They closed their borders and still continue to do so and dropped their infection rate to zero!
The government wants to save the economy, good luck with that based on the current rate of infection. We will have no choice but to shut down anyway.
Sad because we had this beat 2-3 months ago.

We can’t lock down every time the virus flexes its muscles. The economy is burning to the ground, the Bermudian culture quickly getting destroyed and covered up by face masks. Don’t let the authoritarian government control your thoughts.

Where on the scale is a “close exposure” with a quarantine for 14 days and a test required only on day 14 in the scheme of things?

It’s not if we will shut down, it’s when we will shut down.
