Taste of Carnival 2022

[hover11]

Alot of ppl in America and England are not happy of the fact that they have to do yearly covid shots most are opting out of that next jab would love to see what happens down here when that time comes

Guys keep in mind that the AZ vaccine protects you up to about 8 months and the Sinopharm protects you up to about 6 months. So all the people getting vaccinated so far will have to undergo the vaccination process again at the beginning of next year. So if that doesn't happen as it should there will be a risk of resurgence

Nobody aint saying carnival bad but in life there are priorities. Carnival is used as a distraction to keep trinis from demanding more from their country. Instead of better living conditions give them carnival.

Imagine they don't come out in their thousands to protest for better living conditions for free but they come out in their thousands to fete and frolic at a price.

Your PM literally on tv daily telling you that he has to beg for vaccines to save lives in TT because the white developed world doesn't care about the faith of brown/black lives in the lesser developed world so they hoarded life saving vaccines. Doesn't that make you question your own value in this world? How is carnival 2022 even a thought in some people's minds right now.

Because thousands of livelihoods depend on it. Not saying it should be our ultimate focus, getting out of this pandemic should be.

Rich countries are 'hoarding' vaccines because in some ways they are entitled too. They contributed the most funding to developing this vaccine and it's in their interested to fix their countries first.

We failed diplomatically in securing vaccines early. We took a risky approach of waiting for WHO approval which is the slowest body to approve. We could have had our own medical body examine the results of phase 3 trials and decide whether to use the vaccine here.

We could have volunteered to be part of phase 3 trials as well. I would have participated myself and I'm sure 20 to 40k trinis would have as well.

Fact is, our Minister of Health is boasting about having 10% fully vaccinated by September, 10% has already been surpassed by many in the Caribbean already.

This is our position in the world regarding fully vaccinated persons. Almost last again. We routinely boast about being the richest in the Caribbean and having a HSE fund.

Yet, when the time it's needed most is now and we are lagging woefully behind.

Do you see ANY progessive country in the world having a "carnival". Most "carnivals" in the developed world such as Nottinghill and Labour were exported and created by the caribbean community residing there. Most of those festivals have become problematic with shootings and stabbings etc. Ask any of the residents living in the wealthy and upscale neighbourhood of Nottinghill if they enjoy it and you will get a resounding NO. They have been trying to have it moved for years. It is viewed as ghetto.

Guess which community in the UK is considered the least progressive with high unemployment rates and education? You guessed it. It's the caribbean community. We have essentially exported crap. Whilst every other community has made significant strides in various capacities we continue to linger and fall further behind. I am sure that things such as carnival doesn't help. Your culture defines you and carnival is causing trinis to become degenerates. It is not an uplifting culture. It is degrading to our women. What other culture glorifies and sexualise their women such as carnival? Then we pretend to be shocked at the gender violence that is pervasive in our society.

Before you look to uplift YOUR women, you rather they wear a thong and put them out in the street to skin they battam for your simple enjoyment? What sorta culture is that?

You really comparing music festivals to TT? Coachella doesn't shut down the USA for 6 weeks. Wireless doesn't cause employees to miss work so they could go a day fete etc. Ultra doesn't cause employees to come to work tipsy after a weekend of frolic.

Wow bro, just WOW!

Hover, where you get that info? Annual vaccinations are the norm so people used to it. Furthermore they haven't even administered the second dose to the majority of the people in the UK nor have they said what the frequency of boosters will be so how people already opting out?

BTW you and bluefete is partners?

Unfortunately is only when ppl dieing....carnival can be cancelled.

Let's wait and see man we have not seen the long term effects of these stuff you don't know what they are and I don't know what they are that we are injecting in our bodies every year but I guess trust the science, science has never been wrong. Funny that same science cannot provide a vaccine for HIV/Aids after FORTY years of research, or even the common cold but a year of study and a vaccine for this novel(Never before seen) coronavirus is developed and we are just expected to take it.....Make it make sense

Things make sense if you did 10 mins of research:

Why don't we have a vaccine for HIV/AIDs - https://theconversation.com/hiv-aids-va ... ths-160690

What about the common cold? - https://www.scientificamerican.com/arti ... -cold-yet/

[Redress10]

Shouldn't the "thousands" who rely on carnival for an income be given a more sustainable long term type of employment. What about long term financial impacts such as mortgages etc. We really comfortable with providing this low skilled, seasonal employment for members of our population? Really?

Has nothing to do with diplomacy. They simply don't care about people such as yourself. This is not about speak gently but carry a big stick. Your country is never in a position to demand anything from the developed world because TT have little to offer in return. That is the fact.

USA have 40 million black ppl that they treat as second class citizens. These black ppl are the most influential, wealthy and possibly educated black people on the planet yet they are treated horribly. You think that they hold brown/black islanders in high regard? Really?

Steups...BS with your vaccine talk. You would have been the same person who bad talk the gov't for not following the WHO and waiting for a WHO approved vaccine. If u think ppl would have taken a vaccine bases on MOH reviews then you are entirely mistaken. Waiting on the WHO was the safest approach.

You do realise that many caribbean nations have small populations so obviously they would be vaccinated alot sooner than us. Can it be improved? Of course it can but don't act as though we are not making progress.

Bro, being the "richest" nation in the caribbean is not an achievement. The caribbean region is widely regarded as one of the poorest regions in the world. But things such as carnival don't help. They in fact hinder. That is why we need to make a shift in improving our STEM knowledge to aid in our development. Keeping our citizens reliant on tourism dollars via carnival or hotels is NOT going to take the region out of poverty anytime soon. You do realise that the caribbean has one of the highest migration rates right. Why do you think that is? Lack of opportunity and access to capital comes to mind.

Why are you turning up your nose at that "list". Do you think that we are better than those countries? Bro if you visit those countries you wouldn't even be able to tell TT apart. We may just have a higher number of paved roads but the development and corruption is basically the same. We are closes to those countries than to North America or Europe that we like to believe.

Alright, so you hate T&T and have a defeatist attitude good for you. Others want better and will work toward it. Thanks.

[Redress10]

^^^ You read all of that and honestly believe that you in the group that wants "better"?

Isn't carnival an "escape"? Isn't that a defeatist attitude.

Be honest with yourself, do you honestly believe that if trinis were more developed and serious about life they would be concerned with things such as carnival?

By "carnival" I literally mean bikini, beads, alcohol consumptions and the other commercial aspects of it. Not the artistic/cultural side of it.

[hover11]

How much does the government spend on carnival to what they receive, the government funds all those competitions with our tax money every event is a minimum of a million dollars for 1st place winners alone.Every year alot of money is injected into carnival for those two days and what are the returns, imagine if we funded that money into something productive ....

Thanks for answering a question I didn't ask or care for an answer to. All I asked is where you got the information about the US and UK population stating that they will opt out of having an annual booster.

The problem we have is that people are happy to spread misinformation about every aspect of the pandemic rather than take a couple of moments to think whether what they are saying is true or at least from a reputable source. We all have a right to be sceptical about anything new, but when that scepticism overrides logic and creates false facts that are taken as the truth by an easily coersed population...this is when it becomes dangerous .

Cool, I respect that you are anti- vaccine you can do what suits your lifestyle. I am pro- vaccine but difference is I not purposely trying to mislead people in coming to a decision on which side of the fence they want to sit on, all I asked was for where you got your information from reference UK & US nationals activity declining booster shots, if you can't answer that just say its your thoughts don't make it seem fact. As I said before we are an impressionable nation- dont take advantage of that and equally don't let people take advantage of you.

BTW, ever got your small pox or yellow fever jab? You know some countries won't even let you in without the latter.

The difference between small pox and measles shots growing up is that was one shot and I'm done, I am not forced to take those every 6 to 8 months that's madness....every 6 months I have to inject myself with this unknown substance with hopes to have protection...save it. Traveling not really important to me atm I will wait it out and see what's happening , one thing the pandemic thought me is traveling is non essential and I'm an avid traveler every 6 months I was going on a trip so like I said non essential. Will give it two years and I will observe the ppl who were pro vaccine like yourself

There was already tons of research done into coronaviruses prior to the novel covid. It was discovered in the 1960s. There was SARS in 2002-2003 and MERS in 2012 what you mean "never before seen". There was not any fast tracking of funds so vaccines for those were never pushed. What we have now is an out of control coronavirus, which requires fast tracking of funds. There are always a few people who will develop serious problems after taking a vaccine.

I know someone who took the vaccine a few months ago, they were administered a second dose already. No issues.
