  1. St Kitts Nevis moving on
    Barbados talking about safe zones

    BASSETERRE, ST. KITTS, November 6, 2021 (MMS-SKN) โ€” The hugely popular Prime Ministerโ€™s Monthly Health Walk resumed on Saturday November 6, after a break that had been occasioned by Covid-19 spikes and community spread in the country, drawing a large turnout that included scores of new participants.

    โ€œWe had taken a decision to lead by example and to defer any activity that by and large could result in super-spreading,โ€ explained Prime Minister, Dr the Hon Timothy Harris, at the end of the walk. โ€œWe have resumed it after several months of holding in abeyance, but we have noticed too that other activities of this nature having been taking place, the cancer walk for example last week on Saturday October 30.โ€

    The health walk which takes health-conscious participants from the bus stop in Bellevue Village to the hardcourts in Ottleyโ€™s Village, was last held on Saturday July 31 this year when as usual a large turnout was the order of the day.

    โ€œWe now think it is fine to resume, as part of the wellness is really for our people to engage in greater physical activity,โ€ said Dr Harris. โ€œAnd so we want to continue this activity. It is a very popular activity.โ€

    The walk, clockwise from top: Participants congregate at the Bellevue bus stop; participants leaving Bellevue Village; participants on the Island Main Road in Tabernacle Village; arrival at the Ottleyโ€™s hardcourts.

    Resuming the health walk is meant to encourage people to engage in greater physical activity that is in keeping with the strategy being implemented by the SKN Moves, which is about getting people back again to care for themselves โ€“ to think about their health, and to think about how physical activity adds to their wellness.

    A most important understanding that you seem to have now arrived at is that Covid-19 has to get into flood waters and then has to get into human hosts from those flood waters before it can replicate significantly according to your postulate.
    INDEED BUT HE WILL MOST LIKELY GET THERE IF /MUNICIPLATIES TEST THE WATER FOR VIRUSES
    DO WE IN BARBADOS TEST OUR WATER FOR VIRUSES…….EVEN SAY HEPITATIS VIRUSES……DO WE EVEN STILL TEST OUR WATER AS WE ONCE DID

    But you have not demonstrated anywhere that it can get into flood waters or into a significant number of human hosts from flood waters.
    HE HAS NOT YET DONE SO……….AND YOU CAN NOT DEMONSTRATE THAT IT DOES NOT

    You have not demonstrated any appreciation of the numerous linkages and factors that have to be just right before a pandemic or an epidemic or a surge or a significant diminution of infections can occur.

    The copious data you are getting from all over the world does not advance your thesis one whit, minus a well documented demonstation that flooding is actually a major factor in the spread of the disease.

    BUT IT IS CRYSTAL CLEAR TO ME THAT THAT DOES NOT MEAN A THING
    ALL THE GREAT SCIENTISTS WHO FOLLOWED THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD ALSO WENT IN STEPS
    THEY KNEW THAT THE ONLY THING THAT STARTS AT THE TOP ARE WELLS AND GRAVES

    You also fail to appreciate that, in nature, infections may be common and spread like wildfires at certain times of the year and under other special environmental conditions but that it is exceedingly difficult for someone to artificially infect people with lab grown pathogens.
    HOW DOES THIS AFFECT THE PRICE OF CHEESE, SIR?

    Do you remember the Anthrax scare around 911 and the special weaponized anthrax that had to be used and which was actually significantly less virulent than anthrax in the wild? Do you also remember the Ebola scare when the guy that brought it in from (I think) Sierra Leone and stayed with a family for a few days and Anthrax failed to proliferate. The environmental conditions were not right there also.
    SIR WE ARE NOT TALKING ABOUT ANTHRAX HERE NOR ARE WE TALKING ABOUT IMBECILES SEEKING TO INFECT ANY ONE IN A HODGE PODGE SLAP DASH WILLY NILLY FASHION

    THE PEOPLE WHO INTRODUCED THE NEW PREPARED CORONOVIRUS AND ITS VARIANTS ARE EXPERTS AND THEY DID THIER JOB WELL AND THEY WILL STRIKE AGAIN AND YOU WILL HAVE TO PUT UP ON BU SOME MORE OF YOUR IRRELEVANT NUMBERS THAT ARE NOT MOVING THE NEEDLE TO CURE OR STOP THE DISEASE

    WILL THIS INFORMATION BE CRYSTAL CLEAR?
    SCIENTISTS DISCOVER ANTIBODY THAT CAN PROTECT PEOPLE FROM GETTING CฮŸVID AND VARIANTS
    Cooter COOTER NOVEMBER 11, 2021

    If someone wastes time listening to the mainstream mediaโ€™s CฮŸVID narrative, theyโ€™ll be missing out. You wonโ€™t hear serious questions. There is virtually no one talking about natural immunity. Any evidence of distorted CฮŸVID numbers is met with a scowl by the liberal left. Nowhere in the annals of fake news reporting will you get statistics on medical problems caused by the CฮŸVID vaccination. However, viewers will be repeatedly instructed on why everyone must get โ€œthe jabโ€. The truth about this pandemic is being manipulated, even buried.

    Recently, one such story surfaced from a pair of North Carolina universities. A scientific CฮŸVID antibody breakthrough did not earn a spot on the fake news mediaโ€™s list of important stories. If youโ€™ve been following the way CฮŸVID is reported, youโ€™d understand why.
    The mainstream media is in the back pocket of the liberal Democrat Party. Liberal Democrats have been manipulating the American public with CฮŸVID misinformation for nearly two-years. CฮŸVID is their political football. Itโ€™s the only one they have left. It keeps the public fearful and apprehensive. Anytime good news is revealed by the science, liberals treat it with their own untruthful apprehension. Democrats even questioned the efficacy of the vaccinations before they were released.

    Liberals use only the CฮŸVID information that meets their power-and-control narrative. So, an astonishing breakthrough discovery by scientists at The University of North Carolina and Duke cannot be openly revealed to the public. If a new antibody has been discovered, it might give substance to those Americans who are reluctant to get Joe Bidenโ€™s Draconian โ€œjabโ€. This โ€œjabโ€, the CฮŸVID vaccination, hasnโ€™t even stopped people from contracting and then spreading the deadly virus.

    The early evidence from the Duke/UNC reports show an antibody that can shut down the virus and its variants before you even get sick. Once the virus leaked out of the Wuhan Institute of Virology in China, liberals have been conniving, calculating ways to manipulate public opinion. Prior to the beginning of the new football season, the number one CฮŸVID propagandist, Dr. Anthony Fauci, bemoaned of a massive, uncontrollable super spread. It never happened. Just like most of what comes out of Fauciโ€™s mouth, it was an attempt to instill fear. However, by continuing to push vaccine mandates and calling the unvaccinated killers, the Biden administration maintains control of the CฮŸVID narrative. Itโ€™s no wonder why their cronies in the mainstream media avoid such promising stories as those coming from North Carolina.

    This discovery will not only be a game-changer in the fight against CฮŸVID, scientists believe it could dismantle additional outbreaks caused by other novel coronaviruses. The antibody is perceived to be effective against variants as well. Anyone following the liberalโ€™s CฮŸVID playbook should not find the burying of this story, and other positive CฮŸVID news, as surprising. Positive CฮŸVID news gives hope to the people. Liberals do not want Americans to have hope. They want the public to live in fear. Virtually every story from the liberal mainstream media about CฮŸVID uses fear as a central focus. Reports rarely talk about positive stories such as these. Itโ€™s being done on purpose. Fearful people are much easier to control, and thatโ€™s the leftโ€™s true agenda.
    IT IS NOT THAT THE DEVIL IS IN THE DETAILS
    IT IS THAT THE DEVIL IS IN CONTROL……..UH LIE?


  11. Let’s take the area around the desal plant.

    No sewers in properties..

    Waste from toilets etc. in homes go in some cases via septic tanks into the ground water or via toilet pits.

    Runoff in the area is directed to wells and ends up in the ground water.

    In some cases groundwater is a few feet below ground level.

    Ground water around the desal plant is thus made up of raw sewage from houses in the area, overflow from septic tanks, runoff directed to wells, underground flow from as far away as Coffee Gully, via Warrens etc.

    When it floods, more water flows down the wells and into the ground water.

    Excess flows overland in gutters along roads to the sea.

    Any toilet pits are flooded and contents travel with the run off towards wells and into the ground water.

    …. but, this is obvious, why am I repeating myself.


  12. … and we all know the virus is to be found in sewage!!!

    A worldwide phenomenon.

    So if the virus is in sewage it is in ground water around the desal plant.

    There is no Zone 1 protection.


  13. South Coast and Bridgetown have sewers.

    So, raw sewage is sent to the Bridgetown Sewage Treatment Plant and the one at Graeme Hall..

    Since we know Sewage has in the virus, it must be at the sewage treatment plants as well.

    The effluent is pumped to outfalls off the Hilton and off St. Lawrence Gap.

    That’s why you should not go in the sea.

    … and why there is only one choice and that is to eradicate the virus.


  14. A person can become a host for the virus either by going in the sea or getting a dose of any virus that may get through treatment at the desal plant.

    It will replicate, the person will shed it, and the cycle will repeat as the virus spreads.


  15. The most likely time to pick up the virus is when it is present in abundance possibly in the drinking water or nearshore waters.

    We know it has to be present in some of our our drinking water and nearshore waters because the Minister of Health indirectly told us so when he said the majority of cases are in the Southern Corridor.

    This is pretty elementary stuff.


  16. Beaches around the world are routinely closed to bathers when there are floods.

    Even we have been known to close beaches for example around Holetown/Folkestone after floods.

    I am not saying anything we all don’t know already.

    It is just that not many have thought about it.

    Beaches around the world are routinely closed when water testing shows they have to be closed.


  17. “Any evidence of distorted CฮŸVID numbers is met with a scowl by the liberal left.”

    it is at this point that people stop reading your crap you fuckwit retard


  18. I would hazard a guess this is sewage coming out of this exploding manhole in London during flooding.


  19. John;
    Barbados citizens used to be able to get water tested by the Government lab. Why not put together a group of concerned citizens and fund a regime of testing for Covid-19 at representative sites that you think are most likely to have high loads of the virus? This could be the first step to getting your hypothesis validated. UWI might have regional sources for funding as well as for conducting the work. You used to work there. You should have contacts that could assist you in getting a series of tests done. You should know Leonard O’Garro. Get him to help in designing a trial.

    Your posts above, while they make some sense, need to go further.


  20. I always understood from the time I was a boy that flooding and sickness went hand in hand.

    Lepto for example was always considered a real threat where I lived growing up.

    I find it difficult to believe anyone would question the obvious and need to be shown proof that sewage can get into drinking water during periods of flooding.

    Where do you think the sewage from the houses in this clip ended up but in the flood waters.


  21. “But, who knows, you may be on the right track, but you are declaring victory prematurely.”

    Mr. Small was generous enough to keep an open mind to the hypotheses in your head

    Why don’t you take the “win”.

    In my opinion he should not have encouraged you at all as you are an incessant troll.

    The only thing you have proven is you can’t prove a thing.

    And, the only person you are convincing is yourself.

    You cannot prove anything by lying and cheating and truths emerge without effort.

    The brain takes up a lot of energy and you are wasting all your energy on nonsense.

    Mother nature and the Universe are harsh cruel bitches.


  22. The folks working in the mud cleaning up are at risk, not only of COVID but all sorts of other illnesses many of which one would associate with developing countries.

    They may not have much choice but that is how it is.

    @John

    You have been barking up the wrong tree with your waterborne transmission theory because of COVID spikes after floods and lots of rain. If COVID was using water as a vector, the spread pattern would be similar to a waterborne illness like Cholera.

    The real reason why cases spike after large rain events is because people are forced to spend longer times indoors where there is a better chance of catching COVID or any other respiratory virus.

    Your flood leading to COVID spikes theory is right but your reason is wrong. Lots of rain forces more people to stay together indoors for longer periods of time where they are exposed to COVID carriers for longer periods than when it is not raining.

    Our medical practitioners and public health officials need to be having this conversation about the serious adverse risks of the vaccine and how to prevent them.


  25. CA

    If it is in the sewage it is in the drinking water simple fact of life.

    If cases appear mostly in the Southern Corridor for sure it is spread by water.

    It would be good if the GOB published cases by geographic location.


  26. The zoning from the 60’s will protect the majority of our drinking water leaving the desal plant as the most likely culprit.

    WE CANT BE SURE OF THAT
    CHOLERA MAY HAVE A DIFFERENT “”LIFE CYCLE”” SO TO SPEAK ………..IN FACT IT DOES

    The real reason why cases spike after large rain events is because people are forced to spend longer times indoors where there is a better chance of catching COVID or any other respiratory virus. THIS IS INDEED ONE REASON. BUT WE DONT KNOW ALL THE REASONS
    WE CAN NOT ALWAYS EXTRAPOLATE “FROM THE PAST AS THIS “”VIRUS”” IS MUCH OF AN UNKNOWN

    Your flood leading to COVID spikes theory is right IT IS RIGHT BECAUSE ONE CAN NOT DISPUTE THE FACTS

    but your reason is wrong. NOT NECESSARILY Lots of rain forces more people to stay together indoors for longer periods of time where they are exposed to COVID carriers for longer periods than when it is not raining. THIS IS VERY LIKELY BUT WE MUST NOT BE GUILTY OF THE FALLACY OF UNEXCLUDED FACTORS OF ANY KIND

    THE DR SNOW IS A GREAT EXAMPLE……..AND THERE ARE SO MANY OTHERS

  29. CA

    In 1854, cholera spread in Barbados exactly how you describe, ie within households and from household to household.

    It was by direct contact and then infection of the household water supply which may have been in a container.

    There was no water distribution system like there is today and there were far fewer homes.

    The average family size would have been far larger than today..

    I came across families from that era where both parents and all children were wiped out.

    20,000 died in 3 months.

    Today, several water sources feed a given reservoir and reservoirs are allocated to specific distribution areas..

    The presence of the virus in a reservoir is limited to those reservoirs the affected source feeds but the concentration will be determined by how much water from non affected sources end up in the reservoir and how much gets by the various protective measures in the affected source .

    Once there is bunching of cases as described by the MOH in a given water distribution area, for sure its in the water from the reservoir feeding that area.

    That is a given once the MOH made his pronouncement back in September.

    https://barbadostoday.bb/2021/09/18/bostic-majority-of-covid-cases-concentrated-on-southern-corridor-in-urban-areas/

    It is the concentration of the virus in a reservoir and the probability it reaches a host through the distribution network that will determine the number of cases.

    Water with the virus may be lost from the system in a leak for instance!!

    Two people (hosts) using the exact same water outlet in a household at different times may not be both infected, or they may be, or only one is infected.

    Once someone is infected in the household it can spread the airborne way, or not.

    A child for instance may have a strong immune system and resists airborne spread as we saw in the beginning.

    But the virus in the water will get the child because it is let into the body in large numbers.

    The model that describes the spread is based on probabilities and concentrations.

    If it is in the water it could easily just disappear over time with everyone left to opine.

    Airborne spread with all the current protocols is minor compared with waterborne spread.

    You don’t give the BU folks enough credit.

    Combining these anecdotal experiences with the science of how the vaccines are designed to work seems to indicate most of the serious vaccine adverse effects seem to be primarily caused by inadvertent injections into blood veins as opposed to the muscle and secondly vaccinating while they have an existing or recent un-diagnosed COVID infection.

    Of course, the only way to confirm this is for doctors to start taking people seriously, investigate and report. When this whole pandemic is over, the whole medical fraternity is going to loose much respect in the community because much of the nonsense many have been doing for decades people are going to be more aware of and start questioning.

    Another adverse events interview he did. This one is a harder watch but may typify the experience most vaccine injured have.


  35. Austria got a problem.

    65% vaccinated and probably another double digit percentage with natural immunity.

    Cases at an all time high and its Government looking to lockdown some its citizens in their homes as punishment for not taking the vaccine.

    Meanwhile it like Governments all over the world will supply all households with water some of which is contaminated and charge them for it.

    The world seems to have gone crazy.

    The Government will supply the locked down peoples with water some of which is contaminated.

    Once no more floods, cases will fall, the lockdown will be lifted and the world will be convinced that lockdowns work!!

    The Government of the Netherlands will pat itself on the back for a job well done until the next time and then since the lockdown “worked” there will be another.


  37. I thank God Almighty I did not get the vaccination.

    At the time I was beginning to realise the virus was waterborne and on principle a vaccine should have been unnecessary if the water was addressed.

    On a yearly basis I know wells on the west coast and Bowmanston are routinely shut down so I figured no big deal for the GOB to figure out which source was at fault and shut it down for a time.

    I reckon the big sources are well protected by zoning.

    The longer I went without a vaccination the more I realised if I took it I would never know for sure it was my protocols with the water and not the vaccination that protected me.

    I accepted the risk I might get COVID but I figured I might have had the COVID already so like it or not I may have had a “vaccination” of sorts already.

    As it turns out the vaccines don’t stop you getting it.

    So far so good for me.

    Glad I don’t have young children.

    I might have lost it with all the lunatics (supposedly adult) running around trying to force vaccines on people’s children and been distracted from studying the data.


  38. Armogan calls for targetted mandates

    Orthodontist and businessman Dr Vidya Armogan is calling on Government to mandate vaccination in health care, hospitality, and teaching sectors, and for front-line workers.
    โ€œThat is the only way we are going to pull out of this (COVID-19 crisis) and get this economy going againโ€ he told the media yesterday during a press conference at his PAVAO restaurant at Sweetfield Manor.
    PAVAO is one of four Armogan family businesses that will post the private Safe Zone identification logo officially from Monday, signalling a welcome to a safe gathering environment for the vaccinated and unvaccinated, who must now meet stringent conditions for entry.
    Armogan said it was critical that Government got a hand on the economy, with a highly vaccinated population being a key factor to the return to any semblance of vibrancy.
    While he acknowledged Government was doing โ€œa fantastic jobโ€ educating people about COVID-19 and had made โ€œa buffet of vaccinesโ€ available to Barbadians, he suggested there needed to be a more firm and widespread policy on vaccination.
    He said the cultural nature of Barbados was such that interaction between families in a household could easily lead to exposure to the virus.
    โ€œThis is Barbados and thatโ€™s why we are seeing this thing blow up, because one person with COVID-19 right now is spreading it to many people and the fact that we are not contact tracing is a major red flag.
    โ€œIt should tell you that we have no control over this virus right now and we are really just trying to let it run by itself and run out. Thatโ€™s not where we need to be. We need to get our people vaccinated urgently and we need to get our protocols a little bit higher up,โ€ Armogan said.
    โ€œWe are imploring the Government of Barbados to mandate that health care workers [be] the first sector that should be mandatorially vaccinated. We have been fighting and calling for that for months now, but we understand that there is an initiative
    on the Governmentโ€™s side,โ€ he added.
    Head of the Barbados Private Sector Association (BPSA) Trisha Tannis has made a similar call for mandatory vaccines for all front-line workers. Her appeal follows that of the Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association, which in a paid press statement last month implored Government to make inoculation compulsory for employees in that sector by December 1.
    In view of the explosive number of COVID-19 cases being recorded, the BHTA wrote: โ€œThe existing situation is intolerable and requires immediate action. It is against this background that the Barbados Hotel and Tourism Association is calling on the Government of Barbados to immediately institute mandatory vaccinations for all employees in the hospitality and tourism industry, which is deemed high-risk.โ€ (GC)

    Safe zones is a wonderful concept awfully devised and implemented.

    It should be implemented as a certification standard, similar to ISO9001 or the National Trust Logo.

    Instead of forcing safe zones by type of service offered, all businesses and organizations should freely choose to follow it and get the logo to display at their entrance or not.

    All customers will then be able to vote with their feet whom they want to patronize. Employers, employees and their unions at businesses wishing to implement safe zones can negotiate changes in terms of work conditions.

    Why has the government gone mandate crazy. I bet the huge outcry from BAMP members is because half of them are not vaccinated and safe zones will force them to get vaccinated or be significantly inconvenienced every seven days.

    Stress is not a right of the people written into the Constitution but an added ingredient which govt is pursuing in order to get the populace vaccinated
    This is not right
    This is not moral
    This is not ethical
    Somebody must stand up and say enough is enough


  46. Yuh see how the people of the USA are reacting to Biden madness
    Here is a President who could not implement a policy for safe evacuation of the US MILITARY in Afghanistan but decides he can implement vaccine mandate for millions of Americans
    Crazy

    He certainly has a right to implement safe zones at his business just as I have a right to go elsewhere whenever I see a business displaying the Safe Zone sign. I will not be patronizing any Safe Zone businesses and if I have no other choice than to get that service from them, I will be the one wearing a full face respirator to protect myself from all the asymptomatic vaccinated superspreaders.

    My question is why and how did this get to be a news article?

    Did not know Grenville had a Court case about the republic but he too like to waste the time and money on go nowhere causes. I predict he will get laughed out of court with some hundred page court judgment followed by his lawyers laughing all the way to the bank.

    He could give me that money and let me help some random people with their medical bills or food or any number of more useful endeavours.

    You will find the majority of Barbadians are vaccinated 1st dose at least and many others have no issue with being tested as a requirement for entry.
