“have a policy similar to the US”

Poly-tricks.

I would prefer a policy closer to that of Canada or Australia … wait, that is what we have!

It doesn’t matter if the TA is not new it still has to go, plain and simple.

Michael Dunkley is being far too diplomatic.

It is way past time to rip up the TAF & end all of the aggravation, money & stress that it has created for travellers to Bermuda.

The OBA is doing what any opposition party is supposed to do. Point out any stupid stuff the governing party does.

The PLP was a great opposition party. They criticized everything the UBP did in the hope that something would stick.

The OBA is a useless opposition party. The PLP is a useless governing party. They provide the OBA with an unending supply of cannon fodder that the OBA fails to take advantage of.

Regardless the TAF. Should go. Either a Covid negative or be vaccinated.

I agree. Eliminate the TAF. It is bad enough traveling and getting into long lines, but to return home and have to go through the hassle with the TAF is too much. GET RID OF IT.

If the majority of the population are vaccinated then its time to move on with life and get rid of masks and social distancing. Those who don’t want to vaccinate should have the choice not to but not be forced to quarantine in a hotel at their expense that’s just draconian idiocy. No human has the right to eternal life on earth and there are many other things that will kill you before Covid does so move on folks nothing more to see here!

It seems to be that the OBA is simply trying to find anything that will stick and then issuing a statement in that regard.
The TA form is not new. It has existed since the borders opened last summer. Yes there have been some issues of late, but they can be resolved. The whole form does not need to be thrown out.

The Government has no idea what’s going on. They say they use data and science but what they are doing is not based on either. People are rightly sick of the false rules which do not apply to MPs who make them. Optics is not an excuse, in the UK Ministers resign when caught, but not in Bermuda.
