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

[timelapse]

I think they should bring out some baton and bull pistle now.If you get caught without mask or have it in your chin, licks in yuh tail.Thats the only way these fools going to listen.
As for limers vs grocery people, some people treating going to the grocery like a lime.And they all up in your personal space, especially near cash registers.The amount of dotish people I brace since social distancing start not funny.

I think they very selective on who they admit to hospital
Unfortunately, the death toll may increase because some ppl may deteriorate and not have the health care available home

They increased the capacity from 436 to 593.
Let's see if it holds out.

Jamaica have curfew and for their Labour Day holiday they have an all day curfew.
https://jis.gov.jm/curfews-extended-until-june-2/

should we have had a curfew for easter?

we can operate normally, just no big mass gatherings. no big fetes. but a lil house party here and there would not cause any big spike. so long as is here adn there anddd no big fetes happen, lol.

50k for easter, that was the absolute wrong call, highly reckless.

candlelight vigils. no significant numbers following it. which shows how outdoors is not a big deal, as long as most peopel space out.

Cat already out the bag.
Too much lockdown means poverty will increase. Government already say they have no resources for us except sweet potatoes..

India has about twice the projected peak daily infection rate that TTO has. India simply lacks the testing capacity. India is also only vaccinating about 2 million people each day.

Trinidad still in normal operating range.
When we start recording 1000+ daily cases then we know we gone through.

We already have been having more than a 1000+ daily infections, testing only pickups up 1 in 5 infections.

So be careful people.

We are in the exponential phase.

[Dohplaydat]

Hospitalizations only increased by 1 most likely due to discharging patients who probably aren't that sick/likely to get better on their own without further treatment.

It's about priority now.

Also, 7 died...sounds morbid but that frees up some space.

Our rolling 7 day average stands at 292 and it's likely to increase.

We also had 2050 cases in the last week! If 15% need hospitalization that's 308 persons who will need hospitalization a portion of which are already included in that 331.

So despite the number only increasing by 1 in the last 24 hours, I'm sure you'll see a large increase in the coming days or two. As it's been increasing by almost 20 daily in the last week.

If it continues at that rate we'd be close to 500 in a week's time.

Reported tests done are still increasing! Which means we haven't hit the peak yet. Numbers are likely to be averaging 300-350 daily over the next week (higher than this week's 292 daily average).

I don't care what anyone d
Says about covid. The government needs needs to take full responsibility for the mis management and the lies told. Our explosion came when lockdown was lifted for the red government to steal elections.

Now people are dieing all because of a selfish government.

[KM_2NR]

Very dark time for this country.

[Dohplaydat]

Very dark time for this country.

Very.

Zr,

The election opening up was irresponsible but with the original strain, it would have never gotten that bad. Hence why it was brought down easily.

The p1 strain is a horse of a different colour.

The real issues i have is why didn't we lock down sooner? Why lock official borders when the South border was left unchecked? Why so slow in acquiring vaccines?

This entire situation was avoidable.

[bluefete]

This is so sad. The government has tried to absolve itself from some very poor decision making.

When they were telling us to do one thing, they were doing something else. Dr. Rowley getting Covid and Faris having to isolate are just two. If you saw the pictures of them in the papers leading up to this spike, you will realize that they did not care to follow C19 protocols.

And all the sheep decided to do likewise.

Now the followers and others are the ones paying the price.

Let us not forget our borders and the big shot lawyers who sued the government to allow illegal Covid carrying Venezuelans to stay.

I wish every tuner reading this would scroll back up and read Duane's heartbreaking posts from people who have lost loved ones.

Only when dead bodies are laid out in the streets will we begin to take this thing seriously.

Why would YOUR body be on the street ?

Why would anybody read drama and heartbreaking posts when they can exercise and eat healthy and strengthen their immunity etc. ?

Why you soooo NEGATIVE ?

Only OLD and SICK people ( in the majority ) are dying .

Why you not allow the YOUNG people to live and enjoy their lives ?

If you old and you going to die , can you do it in private ?

And donate your computer to a child in school
