COVID-19 in Trinidad & Tobago (Local Updates & Discussions Only)

[Chimera]

you CHOOSE not to be unvaccinated because you dont believe in the science

stay home and suffer, dont run for science to save you when its too late

[Chimera]

i dont understand why the unvaccinated insistent on equal treatment, the same kind of people who make the vaccines you dont trust is the same kind of people who making the medicine to treat you in the hospital

refuse everything
stay home and ride it out. dont clutter up the hospitals

[eitech]

What do you say to the unvaxxed person on their deathbed who choose not to be vaccinated?It good fuh yuh? Or something of the sort? Live with yuh consequence. Ok fair enough

What do you say to the fully vaxxed person on their deathbed?

Safe travels. Go towards the light.

Their families would console them either way.

Scratch that.
When you dying from covid you not getting to see family. You dying alone with nurses around you probably.


In the case of the unvaxxed they would be remembered as idiots though

[widdyphuck]

There are doctor who are saying they will not treat the unvaccinated. I spoke to a lawyer and he said that could be grounds for a malpractice suit. So let them doctor play dumb

What happens when the lawyers gets COVID-19 and die?

The healthy and strong will continue to live and the unhealthy and unfit will continue to live on boosters like its crack cocaine.

and the 'healthy' and unvaccinated will go and infect their unvaccinated elderly relatives especially for Christmas.

Why the elderly relative not vaccinated?? That seems like their problem, not young health unvaxxed's.

[Mmoney607]

christmas really going to be full of death

a good few of those bars not even asking for vaccination cards or enforcing 50% capacity.

on one hand everything need to open because people need money to survive

on the other hand......so much stupid people dont want to vaccinate

so much people losing the lone breadwinner in their family from this virus

so much children losing their parents

parents losing their kids

for what?
because you smarter than scientists
because your church leader and pundit and sister devi tell you dont take the vaccine


if soooooooo much people didnt have to get admitted to ICU then those who REALLY need ICU could be better taken care of

it have people who spend 10-12 months in ICU abroad with covid and come out and survive
we obviously can't keep someone alive so long because with our limited ICU beds you have to decide on who better to deserve a bed

the 70 year old granny who have a 5% chance of living
or the 35 year old who have a 10% chance
if the 35 year old had take his vaccine he wouldnt even be in ICU, he might be home with a bad cold like me

but because he have a better chance, granny taken off ventilator to go to the great beyond

That's how it works tho even in normal circumstances, if you were in an accident today and you needed icu care they would access you based on your co morbidities and other factors to see if you can be a candidate for ICU. It doesn't make sense putting the elderly on a ventilator might sound harsh but that's the truth based on what a doctor at Mt hope, the older we get the harder it is to fight off simple infections we took for granted when younger, worse yet if you have comorbidities. Words from a doctor, we have limited resources and everyone deserves equal treatment but that isn't practical

Yes hover, but the unvaccinated are disproportionately taking up health care resources, this is a fact. Do you think it's fair that because of their choices many other ill people will not get health care attention?

Not the unvaccinated, it's the unhealthy are clogging the system, the type that drink the rum that abdool Richards selling.

Way before the vaccine, millions and millions, hundreds of millions of healthy people got covid and it did absolutely nothing to them

Yes. They will. And then the healthy and strong will contract COVID and acquire natural immunity and keep contracting COVID after natural immunity wanes -- or die.

"Vaccinated, recovered or dead" -- Jens Spahn

Health and strong will die?? . From a virus with a 1% mortality rate??

If I was ttmf marketing manager, I would have use covid and advertising. "We have lower rates that covid."

You did not pass secondary school English or Mathematics, did you

[Dohplaydat]

Mmoney607,

So the unhealthy all of a sudden decide to clog up the health system? It's been well established that on average persons dying of covid would have lived at least 10 years more. Those unhealthy people aren't that unhealthy, something is causing them to get sick and require hospitalization.....I wonder what that something is?

So let's agree to rephrase your post, it's the unvaccinated somewhat unhealthy persons who are clogging up the system. Those who are vaccinated but are dying/hospitalized represent a much smaller amount of persons.

Even with all the claims of waning efficacy of vaccines, our hospitalizations continue to be 91%, unvaccinated persons.

hover11,

From a moral standpoint, just because you pay tax doesn't mean you deserve to be treated for something you could easily avoided. Think about this, is it fair that cancer patients are getting (this is happening right now in Trinidad) less time with doctors, screenings and checkups?

I would agree healthcare is a human right, even for people who abuse drugs and substances (as that can be argued is a mental ailment). However, persons who simply refused to take a vaccine are in principle are saying they don't see covid as a threat. If that person has that viewpoint, they are thus surrendering their right to future healthcare (at least lower priority) regarding that ailment.

Could we also not argue the same for AIDS seeing that's it's far easier avoided than COVID?

or that reserved for hurricanes only

[toyolink]

We are right smack in the middle of a hellish scenario and solutions to our problem seem to be difficult to determine with the confusion reflected in the various discussions for the way forward.
Our economic well being was in a free-fall prior to the panic and it seems with the pandemic resident amongst us, any suggestion that things may return to some normalcy is just a mirage unless there is some dramatic shift in our collective disposition.
We always have to find ourselves in crisis before we show our collective positive capacity and in this case the casualty threshold would fast become unbearable.
This requires us to get on the same page either voluntarily or by the horror which is unfolding.

Good news. A 110% increase in new beds available and 21 less people to get infected again.
