Well yes look at Israel and the UK.

[Dohplaydat]

Would the vaccination process relieve the bump?

Vaccinations at the expected pace have already been factored in. Assumptions for the model are listed at the FAQs.

American vaccinated 4 million people in a single day day yesterday. They are well on track to having everyone vaccinated within a month or two.

That works out to more than 1% of its entire population in just 1 day. On that scale Trinidad would have to do 15000 per day! Of course we can't expect to start off like that but 1000 a day isn't anything to boast about.

Of course it would be impossible without private sector involvement. And I don't necessarily mean procurement of the vaccine, simply distributing it to them would help.

i agree sadly.

but its simple to fix without shutting down the entire country.

close all bars, no more dining in at restaurants,

Two nurses at every Trinidadian school, administering 15 shots each is nearly 15,000 shots each day.

Two properly working nurses maybe.
My vet probably works faster

Two doctors, nurses, vets, or IV drug users at every Trinidadian school, administering 15 shots each is nearly 15,000 shots each day.

There you go.

i remember in the late 70s as a child my parents took me to john d for a mass vaccination exercise
can’t remember if yellow fever
but they were running all day and long lines of people in and out

surely thousands per day

Thoughts on the rumours of a 2nd lockdown? I find it hard to believe. Probably reinstatement of some restrictions, but i cant see a full lockdown happening

I think it's just a rollback of restrictions, not the full lockdown like march/april last year. although the PM say he doh have money if it come to that- is he just talking about the sectors like restaurants and bars that would be affected?

[matr1x]

Rowley wasted so much money on their vanity projects. Now they crying about money?

[redmanjp]

today's update delayed - perhaps due to poor signal at maracas bay?

[K74T]

14 today

Looks like a small spike, things might be going back down to normal levels.

[redmanjp]

Idk of this is breaking news but sources say that hand sanitizers that were produced during this pandemic had high levels of cancer causing substances due to the irregularization of the manufacturing process. That means them no name and cheap name ones in hot water. Damn! When we suing? That's why washing hands with soap and water is always the best option.

Sanitizers are literally mostly alcohol (between 60 and 95 percent) and usually in the form of ethanol, isopropanol, or n-propanol.

The inactive ingredients are things like aloe vera or essential oils, all non-cancerous for topical use.

[redmanjp]

what about the PM? he taking it tomorrow too?
