HEALTH Minister Dr Michael Darville.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) further lowered the COVID-19 Travel Risk Advisory Rating for The Bahamas to Level 1 (low) on Thursday.
This rating advises international travellers to be up to date with their COVID-19 vaccines before travelling. The de-escalation in rating comes just three weeks after the CDC reduced it to Level 2.
Minister of Health and Wellness Dr Michael Darville said the Level 1 CDC rating reflects the sustained downward trend in COVID-19 infection rates in the country which is due in small part to the manner in which Bahamians and residents have adhered to COVID-19 protocols and bodes well for the country’s tourism industry and economy.
He cautioned however that while trends in The Bahamas have been encouraging, recent international reports have confirmed surges in infection rates in China and some parts of Europe which prove that COVID-19 is still very much with us. In light of this, he encouraged all Bahamians and residents to continue to abide by the COVID-19 safety protocols and for those who have not yet done so to become vaccinated and said we must not let our guard down.
Persons wishing to become vaccinated or receive their extended dose or booster can access appointments at vax.gov.bs or visit the vaccination site located at the Mall at Marathon in New Providence, Mondays to Saturdays from 10am to 6pm. In Grand Bahama, Monday to Friday, from 8am to 4pm at the Susan J. Wallace Centre, and in the Family Islands at their local clinics during clinic hours.
The announcement by the CDC came via advisement from CARPHA, the Caribbean Public Health Agency on Thursday. Formal announcement of the de-escalation in travel risk will be posted on the CDC’s website and social media sites on Monday.

And yet, less than 40% shot up, over 60% shot free. Level 1 eh? That means covid no longer and issue. Well, it never was. Level one or Level 10 it's all tailored to politics and political control, not a medical threat nor a health issue.

Just unpackaged documents reveal natural immunity over covid was known by officials to be better that vaccinations. They buried the facts to-date vaccinations.

Gates still trying to use Microsoft Computer logic and is updating nd reseting people's lives with his vaccine intelligence logic. Unfortunately, dead humans just don't reset, reboot, 8X- re-vax-booster, update No 2million and then we come back to life as our mortal death is final. Now he is saying theroputicals should have been used along side untested vaccines and millions of lives could have been saved. Ivermectin and Hydroxychloroquine are both theroputicals - but no - he is creating his own patented version to work along with a next generation of pandemic and vaccines. Minnisitis, with WHO still waiting for the vaccine to stop Covid and jail us to our houses until the miracle is made killing hundreds here against Nurses Union and private doctors best advice. Now Gates has jumped to the other side. He speaks of human inate immunity ability to fight off viruses and and adapt. But the dark new darkness he preaches is that he wants to assist our God Givin ability and without him our own bodies and rights are nothing unless he jabs us or give us some lab cocktail with the automatic nod from his funded and owned WHO. Saddled to WHO, The Caribbean would have no choice but be further concentration camp test dummies or IMF would give no loans, travel and work only for the vaccinated QR Coded test Ing bodies desperate to find a job that IMF blackmail medically along with financial noose.

While at the same time the computer guy put out a book on world health that is being promoted by WHO then probably health dictatorship will become universally pushed down our truth. Seems WHO PAHO cannot tell the difference between computers help and human health. But will we be bound to follow WHO of which we are a signatory health protocols written by a computer henchman seeking power and profits

WHO is pushing computer guy book on pandemic policy unaware by the global pandemic pain than humans suffer greater pain than reboot vaccine again until it works, update hour vaccine every four months, a human heart crash attack is not as simple as a computer crash. According to WHO their garage computer virus specialist is smarter than the world's greatest virology doctors who still have no say about Covid. Maybe they too can switch their fields to computer virus and hacks, maybe then the world will listen.

How can the computer guy buy his way into controlling the power of World Health rules, that we are obligated to follow. He tinkers with human health as if we had no soul and just a machine. There should be some rules to govern global health trendsetting and not those seeking to profit through monetizing the gateway to travel, jobs, financing and social pandemic global response. This was all a planned sinful sham from manipulating viruses to make then jump species according to biolabs and the natural tracking movements on maps of bats, birds, desert sandflies,fleas discovered in Ukraine. That is why someone always could predict 100% that preparation for world pandemics would be urgent at a certain time frame correct to the global week as the world turns.

Sweden has returned to the globally rejected Covid Passport narrative. I wonder when the IMF will force us on script.

Thousands of protesters marched through the German city of Nuremberg on Easter Monday against COVID restrictions and vaccine policies. Protesters were seen holding banners that read "Together for basic rights, peace, freedom, democracy, and cohesion. Against fascism and exclusion" and "Free choice for vaccinations". Some protesters alluded to the war in Ukraine, criticising the German government's arms shipments, holding placards that read: "Peace - those who want peace, don't deliver weapons". https://www.ruptly.tv/en/videos/20220...">https://www.ruptly.tv/en/videos/20220...

A judge has declared the mask mandate throughout the US as being unlawful. So travellers can board planes, trains, buses and other means of public transportation without wearing masks. So they will only have to donn a mask when boarding an international flight then discard the masks once they arrive at their hotel or decide to walk Bay Street or the Cable Beach Strip. The privilege of coming to The Bahamas and not being Bahamian.

People around the globe with the exception of their globalist leaders who have betrayed them making them poor in order that the elitist money controllers of the world make more money are questioning the logic that rules for health disaster were allowed to be put in place by their know created disaster pandemic but the rulers want to keep the laws on permanently along with all social control and unscientific health and financial control methods. The World Bank warned today of world economic disaster creeping. Russia sanctions was not calculated and designed into Covid New World Order globalist strategists that mentained us on the edge with fear of a new varient. Sanctions has ruined the controlled IMF and WB Covid control and financial last straw. Those institutions hate for Covid to go away but at the present time their new wave will be absolutely cataclysmic as the world has sipped and slipped from their control into the unknown abyss. We're we not in One World COVID-19 NWO, we could only imagine our seventh seal new wave along with the screwing down of more permanent health powers by scripted laws of globalist human QRCoding mark of the beast. The mass migration of some of Ukraines 44 million population further messes up the facts that billions of Africans never got vaccinated QRCode identification.
