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

[Chimera]

Corona sweeping through and touching everyone now


In the past 2 years none of my family members got it.

Right now it's about 15 of us have it. And not 15 people who mix with each other and get it from each other.

5 from penal who does be on their own beat

3 from cunupia

5 home by me

2 from bamboo area

And none of us mix with each other in months to day we get it from each other.

Ppl just get it in their day to day activities.

By chance have you been able to pinpoint how you got it? Unmasked around strangers, masked but around people who were unmasked etc?

I have a cellphone store so I interact with dozens of persons per day. Collecting cash, handling people phones etc. Plus I outside on the whole carrying on business, multiple banks multiple times for the week, grocery, minimart etc. Customers repeatedly try to come into the store with no mask, you have to remind people to sanitize.

And honestly ppl not really bothering with washing their hands or sanitizing at groceries anymore. Seeing that for myself for sure.

What are you DUMB AF Trinis really beating up about?

Start braying.

[pugboy]

masks really only help reduce the risk of breathing in someone else’s breath by acting as a air velocity damper for both persons inhaler/exhaler

if you are in close proximity to ppl in confined spaces then the effect is reduced

jockey sniffer: how come my neighbour moving like normal when he fadda have covid?

everyone: ask yuh effin neighbour

ppl more sickening than covid...geez

[st7]

Guess we gonna continue like everything is OK nothing needs to be done

Do what what exactly ?

Mandatory from home initiatives, online school only, stagger working hours of the public service, encourage private sector to do the same its not rocket science.....yes some loss will be incurred but some is better than none, if this continues the parallel health system WILL collapse and everyone will eb forced to stay home for more than just a 2 weeks , that is all

and then what? how do we get out of this?

I offering suggestions other than just letting it continue to 1000 a day and who dead dead , those are things the government can do if they don't want to lockdown.....soon you will hear the government announce no movement days mark my words it is coming


You cannot "GET OUT " of a PANDEMIC, not because you think it is over means it is.....Germany Europe and America are about to have a next wave and you talking about get out LOL

ent u self wanted to go out like normal and went and get ur fake vax card boasting u have it and ready for the safe zones?

only excuses and slippers with you

massy stores have (had?) security on point with hand washing and temp checks. man would call back and buff people that try to walk straight past.

tho them still on the "scan wrist for body temp" technique. The worst is when I have to stand behind ppl trying to scan their wrist and they miss a few times and eventually they get a 34 and everybody agree "dah good" and go ahead.

This type of mentality is why we have 781 cases , is not your problem so who cares until your family or you catch it but again who cares I was making a point .......if you can't take away from the main concern is that ppl are testing positive and other family members in the house are going about their day to day lives as normal that is all

The bigger chains like price smart and massy are strict with it but all the chinese groceries and smaller groceries don't care.plenry places have no soap or sanitizer just running water. Even price club hand washing area is outside out of sight of security so if you skip it as many people do then no one official notices or cares.

I use the meters everywhere just to see where my temperature is at. I legit get disappointed if they scan my wrist or don't tell me the reading after the scan.

Free temp scan, sure I'll take it. It is for my safety after all.

u should not scan with your wrist after washing your hands- the water would reduce the temp so it would be a false 34C, ive seen it.

If you fully vaccinated and get COVID-19, can you simply fight it off at home or must you go to parallel health care system?

[pugboy]

a fever is not 36.x though

[daring dragoon]

double mask
sanitizing
dont touch face with dirty hands
wash hands
social distancing
sanitize everything you touch / buy /consume example you buy a soda from grocery sanitize he mc before you consume. common sense people.

[Chimera]

If you fully vaccinated and get COVID-19, can you simply fight it off at home or must you go to parallel health care system?

if you get very sick, heart pain, cant breathe etc then you need to call an ambulance and end up in parallel care system

if its minor symptoms you can fight it out at home as most people are

plenty vaxxed persons may not even realize they have covid and moving around normal because it eh effect them at all

[drchaos]

You know ... I have never seen a covid positive patient with a fever. I'm sure it may exist but just never seen one

Everyone who I have done rapid antigen tests for and were positive have had normal temperatures.

There's a difference between infection and disease. Infection, often the first step, occurs when bacteria, viruses or other microbes that cause disease enter your body and begin to multiply. Disease occurs when the cells in your body are damaged — as a result of the infection — and signs and symptoms of an illness appear.

In response to infection, your immune system springs into action. An army of white blood cells, antibodies and other mechanisms goes to work to rid your body of whatever is causing the infection. For instance, in fighting off the common cold, your body might react with fever, coughing and sneezing.

But you should already know that.

There is no point in doing antigen testing on asymptomatic patients.
By the time sufficient antigens show up in your mucus membranes to cause an antigen test to be positive you are most likely symptomatic.

The antigen positive patients mostly had body pains, sore throats, dry cough, chills, headaches, loss of taste and appetite and some even felt feverish but their temps were all below 37 Celsius.
