Scary, at time when Abacoians fresh in knowing all about many broken promises and about the fake graves, the non-existing Domes, the escalation in thefts, does not know that the official counter COVID-19 cases, totally contradict the differences reflected in the misleading smoke signals, being sent out by Mr. Minnis, his health minister, along with that his deputy health director?
