Never mind those ahead in the order of distribution… a more compelling gesture would have been to offer their doses to those folks.
Jump from the frying pan and into the fire of the unknown or proven trusting in blind faith in the historical unfaith… In that, where is the wisdom or prudence? Shall the blind leadeth the blind befalling in a ditch unknown misery from a heaven-sent curse? Being unaware of the time in which you live, where you live, and what must be done.
Furthermore; What guarantees, warranties, or insurances exist that backing such vaccines success or possible side effect after being injected? There is none and there is no good in any vaccines and life is placed at risk and not worth chance taking. Be warned and do the research. There is evil at work and needs to be seriously investigated and extreme caution is taken least being deceived.
“lead by example” – what a crock!
Real leaders would not cut in line.
Real leaders would make sure that the people who are most in danger get the vaccine first.
Bermuda has no real leaders.
Every leader in the World has received the vaccine to lead by example. You sound like a 3rd grader. Educate yourself and you see that half of the population World wide doesn’t trust any of the COVID vaccines on the concern of long-term side effects, which at the moment is unknown. I myself consider Mr. Burt and many World leaders very brave to be first for this new experimental vaccine.
The “fool” part of your name is 100% accurate.
You obviously have never been in any leadership position.
In the private sector in hard times, the executives & managers would take a pay cut and pass the money on to the lowest paid employees.
In the military, the Privates are first in the chow line and the NCOICs and officers last.
The Premier and the others are not in any high-risk health category. Indeed, all but one person are the same people who used flawed health models as an excuse to shut down the country and ruin our economy. And there they are, first in line for the vaccine!
Leaders lead by example. Those vaccinations should have gone to people in the highest risk categories. That is leadership.
Uhhhh how many have seen the close up video of the premier “getting” his vaccine…hmmm when will the news get a hold of this video. We deserve answers as it CERTAINLY looks like the Premier DID NOT actually get the vaccine. Looked good for optics though. Good try
You’ve already been taken to task for peddling this nonsense elsewhere but now you want to come on here too and sound like a twat .
Some people truly are incapable of learning .
