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

[Chimera]

around 5pm I see a convoy of ttdf, ttr, vdf, police, coast guard, fire service bikes and 4x4s coming from the airport side. Not sure what it had behind the 4x4s. More people come into the country and gone to quarantine or something?

[Dizzy28]

Probably more PDVSA officials come to advise on Covid!!!

.As said above some persons have not learned from this time. Some persons are not washing hands-on entry ,we all have hand sanitizer but water and soap is very effective and cleaning hands as.well.

I hear the cry from businesses but the Trinidad doh care mindset would lead all of us disastrous 2nd and 3rd waves.

[Blaze d Chalice]

Today/tomorrow should be 14/15 days after the last case.

If Growlers dem need more time to wrap up any kuchoor that was taking place behind ollor back, now is the time to 'discover' a new case an give ollor an extension.
Last time I was told it was about 4 cases but MoH reported 1 so I give the benefit of the doubt assume the doctor who told me was getting some delayed info because them was just recording info.
The only reason they tell me, was because one patient had the same surname of a person who I deal with so they just wanted to know if it was the same first name too. (It was not)

Yes, these pest going and make things worse.
Trinis, despite being dirty by nature, had all the advantages to completely escape this,
but in each instance they let covid get ahead of them.
This will be no different. The crowd and line will start back 10x.
Is KFC, doubles, and raping is what have ollor so tootoolbay? Steups.

Hurry to get rid of the lockdown, but refusing to follow the guidelines.
Moving like them black friday sale in usa.
If I get a chance to go in the grocery today, I feel I buying for the next 3 months, so I could rock back and not worry about pest.

^ i just came back from the grocery. It busy + social distancing + wearing a mask + some items out of stock = not a good grocery experience. I cannot imagine going later today.

Also no microwave popcorn of any type. I knew I did not hoard enough.

Some people liberally use hand sanitizer in their car before.

They don't want to touch the tap/soap that thousands of other people touched that day.

Hello Gladiator,

In the days of Race Rock, Gran Bazarre, i once urinated in the soap dispenser. My actions were disgusting and utterly regrettable.

No one died.

Coronavirus Cluster Blossoms At White House As Trump Continues To Minimize Threat

The president's own valet has tested positive, as has a Pence aide, an Ivanka aide and multiple Secret Service agents—but the president didn't wear a face mask when meeting with a group of 90-year-old World War II veterans on Friday.

May 9, 2020

Despite a second White House staffer testing positive for COVID-19 this week, President Donald Trump has continued to undermine social distancing efforts. As the Washington Post reports, new protocols were put into place to secure the White House complex over the past two days, during which a military valet to the president and Katie Miller, the press secretary for Vice President Mike Pence, tested positive. Yet Trump was without a face mask on Friday when he met with a group of World War II veterans—all in their 90s—to commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day. When asked by a reporter about his choice to not wear a mask around elderly people at higher risk of the virus, Trump said no and that he “was very far away.” He added that he “would have loved to have gone up and hugged them because they’re great” and that “the wind was blowing hard in such a direction that if the plague ever reached them, I’d be very surprised.”

Trump attended the meeting less than an hour after Pence’s plane took off for Des Moines, a trip that was delayed for more than an hour as two aides who had been in close contact with Miller were removed from Air Force Two out of precaution. While the White House said Pence and the aides tested negative for the virus, the Post notes that Miller has attended almost all of the White House coronavirus task force meetings—during which almost no aides wore masks—in the Situation Room, prompting concern for who else Miller interacted with. During an event with GOP members, the president sent conflicting messages, suggesting that “the whole concept of tests isn’t great” while also claiming “I don’t worry about things” and that “we’re dealing with an invisible situation. Nobody knows.” According to several security officials, not wearing a mask—which Pence and White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows have followed suit— and gathering with guests for photo-ops at the White House speaks to Trump’s repeated efforts to minimize the public health crisis.

Bar soap plenty better at cleaning than liquid soap anyday
Unless it is squeezy or dishwashing soap.

i usually soap down the tap then wash hands. but a tap that u just hit and turns off by itself is best as long as u finish before it turns off so u doh have to touch after u wash your hands

[pugboy]

The liquid soap press pump should be even dirtier because nobody rinses that
Yet bar soap at least gets some water during initial use.
