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

[Dohplaydat]

Just take a drive by st.augustine private and look at the length of the covid testing line....line reaching lakshmi girls

jeez. i was hoping we peaked this week in terms of cases but it seems that not happening. 2 weeks from now then

but that's after all the beds are full

so again, where can we source oxygen?

Peak Covid-19 infections in Trinidad are expected to occur on or about June 12th - five weeks from now. Peak infection rate is expected to be 70% higher than the current infection rate.

I don't think that prediction reflects the current lockdowns, I still think it'll be next week or so. But also it will be quite prolonged.

I can do definitely see us having 100+ cases daily even a month from now.

We can have any number of cases daily once there is hospital capacity to keep them.
When the system is filled its game over.

no ambulances available = people deading out in the street

How many deaths are due to poor health treatment?

Are nurses and doctors being evaluated?

These are same ppl that have worked in General hospitals that just don’t care....the same ones that give you attitude, make you wait for hours and forget you.

How competent, efficient and dedicated are these health care workers that we oh so overly praise and refer to as heroes and gods?

You can wear all the PPE you want and work 7 days for the week but work like sheit.

[widdyphuck]

I think this country is in an UNDECLARED CRISIS right now and no one in authority wants to admit it.
Take steps to protect yourself and your family at this point.
You may very well lose your entire family in less than a week and no one cares.

The doctors and nurses known to our family are competent .

They care and they do the best they can with the limited resources .

If you are approached by a rude nurse - just fall to the floor and froth from the mouth .

If they do not help you - Call Ramesh .

Team, afternoon.

What the figures looking like today?

400 and a lil 6 death...like it didnt really do anything.

Any figures to wake up T&T?

I think we can have a 400+ today with 5 to 7 deaths

Ok so small numbers then thanks.

Numbers ain't scaring people, only a 500+ with 10+ deaths might

Tough love....well if they aint want to follow....learn the hard way.

Scroll up a bit. I posted it a few posts up.

Got info on who in quarantine, where he most likely get it from, company he works for (2 week old news to us), all who dead, all who confirmed have it, all where lockdown.

It bad out here. I don't even wanna go past my front door right now.

Media getting hush up obviously. We keep our close friends and family in the loop to keep us safe or at least try to. Is only so long we can keep this up for.

The following is from an associate. Its not my opinion, its first hand experience

My friend and his father passed yesterday.. his entire family has it..his mom.. brother..sis in law..2 kids.. possibly they all can die..its a sad sad situation.
The covid facilities are already filled.. the country has alot more cases than what they are putting out to the public.

Eventually the truth does come out

engage full csi mode and find out who works where. and which family member occupation is of importance right about now.

name places, ah go whistle

6163 tests have been done since Sunday. Last week same period had 5082 tests. Positivty rate is the same or higher.

So I would expect 400+ today......honestly probably 450+

Just take a drive by st.augustine private and look at the length of the covid testing line....line reaching lakshmi girls

jeez. i was hoping we peaked this week in terms of cases but it seems that not happening. 2 weeks from now then

but that's after all the beds are full

so again, where can we source oxygen?

Peak Covid-19 infections in Trinidad are expected to occur on or about June 12th - five weeks from now. Peak infection rate is expected to be 70% higher than the current infection rate.

I don't think that prediction reflects the current lockdowns, I still think it'll be next week or so. But also it will be quite prolonged.

I can do definitely see us having 100+ cases daily even a month from now.

The model briefing does not show nonessential businesses as closed. The model updated on May 1st with a ~30% reduction in peak infection rates and August 1st moralities when compared to the prior model.

edited: added model briefing info

I can not say. The model updated on May 1st with a ~30% reduction in peak infection rates and August 1st moralities when compared to the prior model.

Yea we can wait for the next update to get a more realistic picture. Really hoping the peak isn't that long away otherwise we'd be in some serious sheit.

Based on my calculations, either today or tomorrow supposed to be the peak.

Just got word... RBL in princes town shut down today, all the staff under quarantine. Turns out an employee, whose job requires him/her to mingle there and other branches, got infected a while ago and now got results.

So if you were in long line for RBL recently, monitor yourself.
