  1. Still no hospitalisations. Fantastic work and news by our hardworking medical staff.

    HOWEVER, A WORD OF CAUTION, THE XMAS & NEW YEAR HOLIDAY SEASON IS ABOUT TO COMMENCE, SCHOOL CLOSURES – THE FULLY VACCINATED TOURISTS ARE ON THEIR WAY TO ANTIGUA FROM AROUND THE GLOBE.

    STAY SAFE EVERYONE!

  2. Wow, stunning and breaking data coming out from Denmark:

    The Danes are now publishing EXTREMELY DETAILED daily data about Covid cases and hospitalisations – not just about Omicron, but all Covid variants.

    And, in news that will not surprise any CRITICAL THINKERS who have been awake in the last two years, the Danes paint a picture entirely different than what the main stream media tells us.

    OMICRON – which continues to appear significantly less dangerous, though more transmissible than earlier variants of Covid – HAS BEEN USED AS A COVER-UP FOR THE FAILURES OF THE VACCINES.

    Sadly, most of the new cases in Denmark occur in people partially vaccinated, fully vaccinated or boosted, also including Omicron and earlier variants. More than 76% of non-Omicron Covid in Denmark are now in vaccinated people, along with about 90% of Omicron infections. Furthermore, only 25 of the 561 people currently hospitalised for Covid have the Omicron variant.

    HAS OMICRON BEEN CREATED TO COVER-UP FOR THE VACCINES FAILURE?

      • I found the Denmark data analysis within minutes … I’m surprised you couldn’t also, it’s quite easy to locate. Please try?

    • Stop printing this dangerous misinformation. As more people in a country are vaccinated, the number of breakthrough cases who arevaccinated will also increase. Simple.
      The entire world scientific community agrees vaccines work. One of many statistics-in the USA the risk on contracting covid is 5x higher in unvaccinated, and risk of death 13x higher, from today’s NY Times. Conspiracy theories are dangerous to all of us.

      The real issue on Antigua is whether we are seeing the start of the omicron wave. We should expect the spread to be extremely rapid if it is, which means more hospitalizations from the sheer numbers of infected. The government will refuse to lockdown, which means we should expect even greater stress on our health systems.

      • Please prove that the scientific data from Denmark is misinformation?

        … and whilst your on this thread, can you answer this question that none of the fully vaccinated haven’t been able to answer for a couple of weeks now:

        If the fully vaccinated have followed all the vaccinated mandates and protocols; and the current vaccines are suppose to be working – what’s going wrong?

        We are now a year into the mass vaccination vaccination campaigns, and even before began, the public health experts, main stream media and politicians explicitly and repeatedly promised that the vaccines would end the pandemic IF ENOUGH PEOPLE TOOK THEM.

        I ask the fully vaccinated again, if the vaccines work, what is going on?

        I await with bated breath for your answer …

        And if you can answer my question, I will give you the Danish source – AS YOU CAN’T BE BOTHERED TO SEARCH FOR IT YOURSELF!

      • … also, the arrogance of the vaccinated holds no bounds. I could also say that what you are purporting is DANGEROUS.

        You know that these current vaccines are still on trial, and have caused many adverse reactions, which include: Myocarditis; Pericarditis (heart issues); Bels Palsy (facial paralysis); blood-clotting issues; Tinnitus (hearing); Skin peeling; numbness & tingling sensations in the nerve system – AND NOT FORGETTING THE NUMBER OF DEATHS THAT YOU CONVENIENTLY OVERLOOKED IN YOUR RESPONSE.

  3. Arnold, you are correct.
    It seems that everything Brixtonian writes is misinformation these days.

    • … just releasing the data that the main stream media and the politicians are HIDING FROM THE POPULOUS – JUST DOING MY DUTY TO BALANCE UP THE UNBALANCED REPORTING … AND I’M PROUD TO DO SO!

      Keep shooting the messenger, I don’t mind at all …

  4. Brixie, once again you are peddling half truths and information out of context. You are no CRITICAL THINKER, you are CRITICALLY ILL.

    • So tell me, are you saying that the COVID vaccines are not causing ANY adverse reactions and DEATHS?

      WOW, TELL THAT TO THE RELATIVES WHO HAVE LOST THEIR LOVED ONES?

  5. @ Brixtonia as well versed as you are sometimes I question why you’re try to change “stupid” which is almost impossible feat.
    Some of the info you talked about I easily found Shuups .

  6. Yet another critical thinker…welcome JAJ (Jack Ass Jack). No, you didn’t find anything sunshine…Shuups. Why, because the Danes didn’t publish what Brixie claims, certainly not with the spin and innuendo he adds. Oh, sorry he didn’t add the spin, he just passed on what he read on his social media feed. Now that’s critical thinking… you guys are the real sheeple, you’ll believe anything you read from your social media feeds. Grow-up and stop believing in fairy tales. Same challenge to you…PROVE that vaccines haven’t saved lives.

    • Rude boy, bad man, slow down … history will eventually prove how wrong you are, and sooner than realise.

      IF YOU HAVEN’T ALREADY SEEN THE GLOBAL RALLIES, THE VACCINATED & UNVACCINATED ARE COMING TOGETHER AS ONE, BECAUSE THEY NOW SEE THE FREEDOM THAT WAS PROMISED TO THEM WAS A LIE FROM THE DEVIL AND HIS DISCIPLES …

  7. WOW, you really are delusional. Now you’re all about the devil and his disciples. No, I haven’t seen the global rallies (what is a global rally anyway?). They only exist in your social media feeds. No the vaccinated and unvaccinated are not coming together. In fact the opposite is happening. A growing majority are losing patience with conspiracy theorists like you. Fortunately a growing majority of Antiguans and Barbudans don’t take your advice, as tracked on the Antigua and Barbuda covid dashboard. Every conspiracy theory eventually losses steam and falls apart…EVERY ONE. Why don’t you ask the QAnon Shaman what he thinks about Q now? The QAnon cult is still waiting for the JFK junior miracle to happen in Dallas. The list goes on and on. These are the same people that are the primary peddlers of covid conspiracies. Ironically it is you that is a disciple…of misinformation and thought control. I’ll ask you one more time…PROVE that vaccines have not saved lives!

    • In Scotland (Edinburgh) and Ireland a week or so ago, the vaccinated & unvaccinated came together as one against the vaccination mandates and lockdown protocols – I’M SURPRISED THAT YOU COULD NOT FIND IT, YOU SEEM TO FIND EVERYTHING ELSE. JOKER!
