It's possible for that to be true because the spread is coming from congregation at workplace and family gathering, which don't really apply to these places.

Can't comment too much, plenty masks being used that are not up to standard. Seems there are suppliers who are flooding the market with sub standard products. A birdie told me

These are locally made masks or ones coming from Asia ? Hard to tell what’s up to mark unless testing is done

Could it be that Rowley's prayer day actually worked?
Maybe a few more of those and cases would go to zero.

who remember a year ago where once you tested positive they taking you down to jail in couva with police escort and ting for the ambulance.

Home quarantine is exactly that. There's no way to have the capacity for every positive person to have a bed.

Pre-testing done, but as usual politics in play. Some Ppl who are making masks should be imprisoned locally, lots of "comfortable material". Just be informed folks, could be the reason why quarantine not effective. Out on this for now

For each of the days last week we had the highest number of daily covid cases and this Monday is the 2nd highest, so could this week be the week where each day is the 2nd highest number of covid cases? Hmmm... :|

Last week Monday we had 294 cases and 9 deaths. Everyday after was above 500, with 601 and 708 on 2 days.

Today being 250 should not be seen as a significant move in either direction.

Anecdotally, I'm hearing more and more about it being spread in homes and apartment buildings. The SoE can't stop that type of spread.

You are probably correct.

Reposting this from a few weeks ago:

Recent research has shown that it is the smaller household gatherings that have triggered Covid infection spikes worldwide.

There are popular misconceptions of what is "safe."

---------

A record-breaking surge in U.S. coronavirus cases is being driven to a significant degree by casual occasions that may feel deceptively safe, officials and scientists warn — dinner parties, game nights, sleepovers and carpools.

Many earlier coronavirus clusters were linked to nursing homes and crowded nightclubs. But public health officials nationwide say case investigations are increasingly leading them to small, private social gatherings. This behind-doors transmission trend reflects pandemic fatigue and widening social bubbles, experts say — and is particularly insidious because it is so difficult to police and likely to increase as temperatures drop and holidays approach.

Can't comment too much, plenty masks being used that are not up to standard. Seems there are suppliers who are flooding the market with sub standard products. A birdie told me

if this is the case then its the distributor who causing the surge an not easter in tobago or kfc last lap. dont bureau of standard look into these mass? if the covid passing tru the inferior mass then gary griffith needs to talk to you to find out what you know and charge those who are putting people lives in danger. cybercrime unit will surely contact you.

Nahi! Last time other products were failing (domestic use) all tests performed. from the highest a letter came to let said products go. Bounded by confidentiality so can't go into depth of testing. Garry have no jurisdiction there. People with the $$ have all power there. Who really regulates medical products with the stringent authority it supposed to? not even our boarders have that type of focus. Never wanted to say it, but at this time Trinidad is really all that a banana republic is. Stay home, stay safe.

Duhhh, it's airborne INDOORS. cause so little air movement. It lingers on the air.

U want to avoid indoor air

Indoor fan will not dissipate the lingering covid, as readily as merely just being outside.

They dont need to shot down, just mice as much as u can, to tents outside.

we asked persons to contact and inform if they got, no one responded that they had covid. any body that knew any body that attended, none have covid or had covid.

if they contact traced the recent spike, they would have been able to show numbers in an official, endorsed, legal document... none to date. and its already past the time for primary contacts,

rowley jess blowing smoke. is just to blow it back.

we really dont know people who attended vigils and got covid. and because it was out doors, and reasonably spaced, there was no real risk of spread.
