EDITOR, The Tribune.

Is there a hidden new protocol for COVID, which is only for our so-called dignitaries and spouses?

Seems so, as Minister after Minister refuse to comply with the the COVID protocol, that requires the wearing of a mask in public….evidence the News channels and interviews with the refuseniks. Journalists do not interview them, if they do not wear masks. You are usually closer than 4ft let alone 6 ft. They are putting you in danger.

Now we see the spouses have been granted divine exemption. Why can't our officials and spouses, comply and show an example? The health protocol requires the wearing of masks, when you are in a public area….in a crowd, a reception, then advised.

Why can't Nassau Cruise Ports instruct their cruise passengers that the Law – health requirement requires the wearing of masks. Few visitors do.

From the US Colleges and Universities, have been hit by the new variant and, oh lord, we have two US College, US Football squads in town this week-end.

Omincrom is far more infectious than Delta, so we have to be 1000% compliant – wear masks, wash hands, distance….folk when friends visit, even if they are vaccinated, best advice wear masks….caution is far better than being infected.
