    People don’t take my word for it do your own research and make that decision on you own. Don’t be pressured or scared. Do your research! May God help us and guide us in all things.

      Yes, do your own research. Make sure to talk to actual health professionals, the more the better. If you are a Christian, listen to one of God’s representatives on earth, the Pope.

    Until the number of tests greatly increase the new cases number does not mean a lot.

  3. Biwi says:

    There has been a lot of discussion in this forum about how much can be drawn from these numbers. The numbers are, undoubtedly, statistically debate-able.

    There is one statistic that is not debate-able and we should all be paying attention to: the number of daily new (1st dose) vaccinations. For the last five days, that number has been 238, 114, 291, 260 and 213 (231 average). Current science seems to point to 75% to be the minimum percentage of the population to be immune achieve some level of herd immunity. That would require about 82.500 Grenadians to become immune. Currently we have about 23,000 fully vaxed and 33,370 “first dosed”. Assuming that: (i) the current vax rate continues, and (ii) all “first dosers” get there second dose within 6 weeks, it will take over 9 months to get to herd immunity by vax alone.

    Countrymen–we do not need another 9 months of this hardship and heartbreak. Our resources and economy are being stressed to their limits. We have daily tragedies. Please get vaccinated as soon as possible!

    Grenada will ultimately achieve herd immunity–either by vaccination or by un-vaccinated folks getting sick and possibly dying. There are no serious adverse consequences to taking the vaccine. Do not believe the lies on social media. Let’s get through this the easy, quick way, and not the painful, long and heartbreaking way.

    • Rebecca says:

      Biwi- I work at a hospital I will never take the vaccine because of what I’ve seen. Nurses are quitting everywhere because they are on the frontline and see what’s going on. Vaccinated people are dying too. You’re as dumb as they come. I shouldn’t blame you because you don’t know better.

      • Observer says:
        5 years ago

        Wow. You selfish piece of work. You work with sick people and you are not vaccinated. Hope you didn’t pass anything on to any weak, vulnerable patient, or increase the viral load of a covid patient by shedding virus on them. If you work at a hospital, you should know that one of the things infected ppl who died had in common was high levels of virus in them. You selfish piece of work.

          Selfish is a very poor description of any healthcare worker!
          You are accusing this individual of asymptomatic spread , an already disproven theory. The increased viral load could be a result of the vaccine efforts on the island, unjabbed healthy individuals do no carry the virus, the jabbed do! They can become ill ,they can spread, the jab does not prevent illness . Your assumption that the jab will end this is not proving to be the case (Israel/Gibraltar) . It may be just the opposite (India) .

          • Observer says:

            Health workers who are covid deniers especially annoy me so I admit did fly off the handle. However I stand by my guess that “Rebecca” is selfish. Based on her posts, I wouldn’t be surprised if she’d go to work knowing she was covid positive. Quite frankly I think covid deniers have no business in healthcare. What cancer patient would want to be looked after by a caregiver who doesn’t believe cancer exists. Anyhow Edward you started off ok, then quickly fell off the sanity cliff. Asymptomatic/pre-symptomatic transmission exist and as to your claims that vaccination causes increased viral loads, unjabbed can’t carry virus and India is a shining example of covid paradise, bye.

          So unless you agree to Inject and dangerous Experimental drug with no longer term safety data…..you are selfish?

          I have people in the Health Service too….one said a few days ago that at least two third of all the Nurses and Doctors…. refuse to inject this mRNA poison despite being pressured.

          Working on the Frontline they have seen up close and personal all those killed and injured by the injections and in most cases after a year and half, think the Injection risk outweigh the CV19 risk. And they are wise not to inject that crap.

          Better to be selfish and alive than Injected and dead.
