COVID-19 in Jamaica: Wary of a Third Wave – Petchary’s Blog

Prevention is key. Let me repeat that: Prevention is key! Restrictions must be maintained, said the CMO, her voice rising when she described the recent intense pressure on our health system. (But, will that be the final Cabinet decision on Monday?)

In the words of the CMO, “We have seen larger health systems than ours collapse because of COVID.” Indeed. We do not have the capacity to cope with a third wave, she repeated.

Minister Tufton doesn’t want us to “panic.” However, perhaps he and his colleagues could just let us know when we need to, at least, get extremely nervous.

Take the utmost care, everyone. Stay safe.

Minister Tufton actually appeared calm – but suppressing anxiety at times, as did the Chief Medical Officer. He did try to end on a positive note, however.

Words Never Found the Way

Grounds For Hope

 That February morning snowed like never before. In his worn-out Soviet car, my father drove me to the train station. Its four AM. It’s dark and bitter cold. We made a stop at a gas station. There is no heating in the auto I hugged my blessing sleeping on my lap, listening to shortwave radio with frequencies that overlapped. The smell of stale cigarette aroused familiar senses Awoken bitter memory that flashed in front of me one by one. Like video clips with magnifying lenses. Somewhere in between the memory scenes I drifted into reverie. Cold breezed in through my old jeans. Snow was falling heavily. I glanced at the worrisome face of my father He gently smiled without saying a word. He was a kind man and didn’t bother Expressing emotions he considered absurd. That February morning when I hugged him goodbye He kissed my baby holding on to…

حلم الدرويش

يختلف البشر فيما بينهم فى ملكية أشياء كثيرة تخصهم مثل الثروة والصحة والنفوذ , وكذلك يختلفون فى قدراتهم العقلية والنفسية التى تساعدهم على القيام بالأعمال والأنشطة المختلفة فى الحياة , والذكاء هو مجموع قدرات الفرد العقلية والنفسية والجسدية التى تمكنه من تحليل المواقف والأحداث والمشكلات المواجهة له وإيجاد حلول ملائمة لها مع قدرة كبيرة على التعلم والإبداع .

Newsmax Issues Retraction and Apology for 2020 Election Coverage – Mother Jones

Newsmax, the far-right news outlet that boosted the Trump campaign’s false claims of 2020 election rigging, admitted on Friday that there was “no evidence” that an executive at Dominion Voting Systems had tampered with election results.

The statement was part of a settlement in the defamation lawsuit against Newsmax and a number of other Trump allies and conservative news outlets brought by top Dominion employee Eric Coomer. In the aftermath of the 2020 campaign, Newsmax repeatedly aired claims that Coomer had manipulated electronic voting records in favor of Biden.

The Newsmax statement admitted the company had found no evidence that Coomer interfered with the election or that he “participated in any conversation with members of ‘Antifa.” It went on, “Many of the states whose results were contested by the Trump campaign after the November 2020 election have conducted extensive recounts and audits, and each of these states certified the results as legal and final.”

“It is a discussion that I would need to have with the Department of Justice, but I would clearly believe that we are within our rights to demand that these communities cooperate with what we are doing,” Fudge told MSNBC at the time, adding that “fair housing is the law of the land.”

“If they want to get into a fight about it, we’re ready to fight them about it,” she said.
