If you don’t have any answer then why are you commenting?

LOL Besides your vax only lasts 4 to 6 months after the last shot. Or did you not read that.

School age children, like my granddaughter, are not the problem.

476 active cases, the majority of which are of unknown transmission and you just want to carry on as if nothing is wring?

People just being contrarian for the sake of it.

The choice for some is take the vaccine and risk a bad reaction or do not take the vaccine and take extra care around others.

Not all of the unvaccinated are conspiracy theorists

Under 12′s can’t get vaccinated and based on the last census 17% of the population are under 14 so you can roughly discount approx. 14.5%

So the number of people accepting their personal risk of catching covid is around 18.5%.

Under 12′s and vaccinated over 12′s are not a population at risk in general or a threat to the hospital system so any restrictions should only apply to the vulnerable 18.5%. That’s their choice to live with.

We have moved past that stage. Everyone has made their choices now.

Anyone who is concerned can go and get vaccinated anytime they want. Everyone else has little to be concerned about and certainly don’t require major public health interventions.

Other than, of course, the rare individual who needs to take additional personal protections as with every other disease/virus out there.

Because not all of the unvaccinated are conspiracy theorists and they are still human. Would you restrict people because of the colour of their skin?

There is zero logic to that. Instead of placing blame on each other I think we all need to focus on doing whatever we can to remain safe and keep our families safe. Social distance, wear your mask in close proximity to others and continue to be vigilant with your own personal hygiene as far as washing hands, sanitizing and staying as clean as possible. Drop this vax vs unvax nonsense because all it is doing is dividing our little island even more than it already is. Be safe you all

Once the numbers in the hospital rise, we go into lockdown again. This affects the economy, people’s jobs and cost lives.

So unvaccinated people are the problem.

Over 9 billion vaccinations worldwide, yet ignorance, selfishness and fear by the unvaccinated look set to cost a country dearly again.

Vaccinated folks also tend to develop mild symptoms (97 percent of hospitalizations in US is unvaccinated folks) and therefore do not clog up the healthcare systems.
Government measures such as safe key etc are just a risk profile statistically guided policies to balance having a normal life/ economic activity with clogging healthcare systems
It’s as simple as that

You want harsher restrictions on unvaccinated people but please answer me these questions:

Can’t vaccinated people catch the virus?
Can’t vaccinated people transmit the virus?
Do vaccinated people have to be tested when they renew their safekey?
Don’t unvaccinated people have to test negative before they can get a safekey?

So how are unvaccinated people the problem? Make it make sense please!

And by the way I am vaccinated….inquiring minds just want to know….hmmmmmmmmm

When are the Marine Police and Regiment going to patrol the waters at night especially the partying at the Lakes.
It seems something is going wrong and the Government is lacking in control.
Truthfully does anyone from Health and Police really check these excemption parties, bars and how is it that the new area on Front Street is full with people standing and not wearing masks?
Time for changes as we need these numbers to drop big time its getting way outa hand.
I feel for our School teachers and students in every Public and Private School.
Ministers Peets and Wilson please get a hold of this soon or we be back like last year in serious trouble

2. Safekeys for 16+ at school
3. Unvaccinated office/indoor workers must wear a mask by law all times
4. Safekeys for Sports clubs ENFORCED
5. No unvaccinated in restaurants, bars including outdoors
6. Close contact adult sports must be vaccinated including soccer

Harsh decisions needed, but focus on those who are the problem.

But eventually it became apparent that they were picking and choosing when and who the rules were for. They talked tough, and often said we “may” prosecute, or fine, or jail if you ignore the rules and put the lives of others at risk. There were several documented cases of individuals that were supposed to be in quarantine that attended private parties even before they had their arrival test results. One of those individuals tested positive for the UK variant that spread to many others at that party. Another rented a hall at the Botanical Gardens and ignored the guidelines and police attended. What happened to these individuals – NOTHING. So why would anyone fear the government threats? You can not prosecute me for breaking the rules, when there are dozens of documented cases that you have chosen to ignore?
