Testing still high, but we didn't get the Monday bulk update today, so can't say how high or if it's stabilized or decreasing.
7-Day Average for cases climbs and now is 442
7-Day Average for deaths climbs and now is 11.3
I think these figures will rise slightly, but level off this week as I suspect this is the peak and things should get better from here on.

Hopefully backlog should be cleared by next week then daily new cases will start decreasing.

Guyana has sourced enough COVID-19 vaccines for herd immunity – Anthony
-key challenge is for people to come forward
After an initial purchase of 200,000 doses of the Sputnik V COVID-19 vaccine, Guyana has been able to seal a deal for 600,000 more jabs – enough to get to herd immunity – but the key challenge now is for people to come forward for inoculation.
Minister of Health Dr. Frank Anthony is appealing to the public to join the effort that could see this country reach herd immunity if persons take their shots.
“If people come out and take their shots we can meet that herd immunity target; surpassing many countries. We can do it because we have ordered 800,000 doses to cover 400,000 persons and that means our entire adult population,” Dr. Anthony told Stabroek News yesterday as he gave an update on countrywide inoculations.

That's great news for them. Although there is some concerns about the Sputnik V vaccine's reported efficacy (much like Sinopharm).
I think once it's been proven safe, it should be given.
However, I can't see vaccines like Sputnik and Sinopharm being used in the long run.

Wonder if President Ali is being viewed as a Putin puppet for procuring Sputnik by his citizens.
Could only imagine what the idiots inside here would say if the gov't procured Sputnik.
Why do trinis feel that everything that comes from USA/UK is superior to the rest of the world? You all do realise that China/Russia etc are independent countries that tend not to rely much on the outside world for anything including medication/vaccines.
Not every country in the world is "import heavy" like ours. Countries do handle their own business mainly for Nat Security reasons. A vaccine is an urgent Nat Security matter.

I think it's because of the rubbish products that we see come out of China and India on a daily basis. Most people avoid made in China like the plague. We have seen the poor performance of cdap meds vs real meds so naturally Trinis will be suspicious of anything that comes out of the far east. But wrt vaccines beggars can't be choosers. I personally stand by ' made in USA'. The only Pakistan/ India medicine I use is lomotil. That does work

USA/UK is transparent and has far more checks and balances built into their systems.
Russia/China does not.
What this means, UK/USA/Europe cannot produce a shitty dangerous vaccine and have the world not know. There are many groups that will spot this and make noise. Look at AstraZeneca and blood clots. That's what you want.
Russia and China vaccine could be killing hundreds and we would not know, why? Because they hide and manipulate data. No one in those countries can voice anti-government sanctioned viewed without consequences.

Western Media has always portrayed Russia in a negative way but there standards are very high.SuperiorMan wrote:wtf wrote:I prefer Sputnik over Sinopharm any day.

Why?
Also I have the feeling that China just created a vaccine with the intent of showing the world that they can and not wanting to feel left out.
Do some research on the country Seychelles and see what happen after they used sinopharm.

Doesn't CDAP meds come from India? I wasn't aware of us getting meds from China. India is essentially the world leader in generic meds. Most countries in the world use generic meds. Only the USA tend to use branded meds to their pharmaceutical industry and patents etc. I highly doubt that the average trini could afford the US price for meds. Cancer meds etc for the month costs the average american over 10000 usd per month.
Anyway you swing it. Wouldn't your ability to attain medication be based on what you can afford. So wouldn't the US manufactured drugs be more attainable to the developed and wealthier nations and the rest of the world having to get alternatives from countries such as India/Russia/China.
What makes trinis think that there is a special relationship between this country and the US to afford us preferential or priority terms? Is it based on delusion?
Generics are usually manufactured using differing processes yielding similar but not identical drugs that normally do not perform as well.Redress10 wrote:
Right. Just making sure. The reality is that a large majority of the world's population simply can't afford brand name meds so they will always be reliant on generics. We have to be careful when using terms such as low quality and crap when describing generics. Generics simply mean unbranded.
Panadol is just the gsk brand name for 500g of paracetemol. Think about generics as the tablets before you put them in the branded package. That is all. Your body is not gonna be able to tell a generic from branded meds.
