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

[De Dragon]

All these morons talking about "it hard tuh geh Covid", re the same morons who bawling in hospital when dey get it

Many of us got it and ain't know what the inside of a hospital look like.

You do realize that everything isn't solely about you right?

Yes. That's why we should leave everything in the caring and loving arms of big pharma and the global elite

Lemme guess, like Hoover, you never went doctah, and doh take medasin?

"Omicron by itself is not a great vaccine. Just because you were infected does not mean you have a lot of protection from what's coming next." - Alex Sigal, Africa Health Research Institute

The vaccine by itself apparently is not a great vaccine either

No. It's just better than infection.

In people who were unvaccinated but recently recovered from a BA.1 infection, they saw a more than seven-fold drop in the ability of their antibodies to neutralize BA.4 and BA.5 viruses. In people who'd been vaccinated but recently had a breakthrough infection caused by BA.1, the drops were smaller, about three-fold lower.

It still have dotish people here who think they vaccine does protect your community against infection?

my god ....

the booster dose does that at least for about 4 months after getting it. and the new omicron specific boosters may increase that further.

mothers day today, rum / duck / hug up and kiss all over the place. everybody want to see dey mammy and granny and tanty from pikney to great grand pikney getting kiss to take to school tomorrow to spread it more.

go brave, check yuh mammy, take a sip with she, hug and kiss. nobody cares.

"Although the unadjusted rates of hospital admission and mortality appeared to be higher in previous waves compared to the Omicron period, after adjusting for confounders including various demographics, Charlson comorbidity index scores, and vaccination status (and holding the healthcare utilization constant), we found that the risks of hospitalization and mortality were nearly identical between periods,” the authors wrote."

Oh ok. So they have their own calculation...smh

There was never any covid emergency, he who pays the piper calls the tune. It's just manipulation of data according to what agenda they were pursuing at the time. Again, how all of a sudden it's safe for children to go to school when nothing has changed from the previous two years where it was a death sentence if you send a child to school?

Now they rather entire classes be quarantined one after the other every time a child tests positive

And only in Trinidad they doing that, everywhere else in the world if a child treats positive, that child alone stays home for three days and then comes back. In Trinidad, the child needs to get a negative tests and a clearance letter from a doctor to back to school.

Forgetting the data that the "establishment" is push at us saying it protects from infection.

What Ive witnessed is a different story, The amount of people I have seen that are tripple and quad vaxxed less than 3 months ago and they sick with omicron over the last 3-4 weeks.

Once you wear your full space suit and take your tenth booster you should be fine bro. Don't study what whoever else doing on mother's day. As another tuner likes to say, ' don't let those people live rent free in your head' Feel I gonna organize a big beach lime

[makron09]

There is a talk that not a dollar allocated to covid relief ever was distributed. Any verification?

[drchaos]

Doh believe any of these lying forkin kaka holes ...

Omicron is milder.

[sMASH]

well, they didn't say not to use it. they just said it was less-safe than the mRNA vaccines, and for pharmacists not to give it unless the person specifically couldn't take an mRNA vaccine for some reason.

the FDA knew that it was less-safe for almost a year before they changed the recommendation tho. lol

They 'paused' to last year then 'unpaused' it.
Now it's limited to certain groups, but u affects to distribute to other countries.

Apparently

Vaxes of the past reduced spread significantly, so spread was minimal.
This new Vax, like a buss up draws. It doing the bare minimum, but allowing plenty breeze to pass tru.

[paid_influencer]

j&j probably not holding up well with regards to durability. one shot ent enough when is 3x and 4x shots ppl need

[paid_influencer]

fellas, doh believe that being vaxx means you won't go hospital or cyar dead out with covid.

last week a relative, middle-age, no comorbidities, fully vaxxed with sinopharm, started feeling unwell, stayed home from work, didn't get tested (so not officially covid+) and didn't seek medical attention, and dead out jusso jusso a few days later. officially it was "pneumonia," but lewwe be forking real.

vaxx or not, covid can kill you. keep some rapid tests at home and go seek help if you feeling unwell. your age / medical history / vax status is no guarantee of it being "mild"

[Kenjo]

Oh gosh we gone back to the government hiding COVID deaths until the next need for it as a distraction ? Either way a person who dies at home needs an autopsy which requires a swab so it shouldn’t just be a pneumonia

sorry to hear that bro. but a couple things:

1st of all, he didnt get tested- even if he dead without testing himself they supposed to test the body. not so? if was covid it would have been counted as a covid death.

secondly, even if it was covid as many including dr fauci have said, sinopharm not as effective as other vaccines.

yes a few ppl might still end up in hospital and possibly die from covid, but those are usually elderly or have NCDs, or it may be incidental (died with, not from covid).

the middle aged man could have also had undiagnosed NCDs or be overweight.

if its approved and accepted, it should be good enough.. not accepted in muricah, but its accepted here. if its not working well ENOUGH, then should it not be allowed? since its giving a false sense of security?
but if govt says its 'good to go' then have faith...

If the govt overs covee, what all the beat is about... Stay home stay safe, is still an option.
Leff the rest of us to live normels.

[greggle71]

Gov’t policy was to follow WHO guidelines. The individual choice remained the individual choice to either vaccinate or not and then cherry pick once options became available.

Any government would seek to encourage vaccinations as a means to try and reduce deaths and hospitalizations. Even while the virus evolved

My only issue was when that talk of mandates started to surface in private and public sector. People should always have choice, married to the consequences of that choice.

At the end of the day we still have to exist
