Joseph blames Daniel for unnecessary hospital deaths

30

St. Mary’s North candidate for the Antigua Barbuda Labour Party, Molwyn Joseph is blaming former Health Minister Wilmoth Daniel, for what he said could have been avoidable deaths at the Mount St. John’s Medical Centre.

Daniel served as health minister for the latter years of the United Progressive Party administration before they were removed from office in 2014.

Joseph who succeeded Daniel as the minister, told a campaign stop Bolans last night that “when I went into that ministry, the people who worked for Wilmoth Daniel told me when he came which was quite infrequent, he never stopped in his office beyond 12 O’ clock.”

“The way they ran down the ministry of health, I can say without contradiction, his neglect resulted in unnecessary deaths of Antiguans and Barbudans,” Joseph a senior government minister said.

He told supporters that a number of life-saving and other critical pieces of machines weren’t working.

“They had no machine in the whole hospital that worked no MIR no CAT scan. And Wilmoth Daniel was parading himself all across Antigua and Barbuda, in his big car with all kind of people on Kentish Road.”

Daniel is the deputy leader of the UPP who wants to replace Prime Minister Gaston Browne as Member of Parliament of St. John’s City West.

  6. Y IS IT THAT WHEN POOR PEOPLE ABOUT TO BENEFIT FROM SOMETHING IT WILL CRIPPLE THE COUNTRY JUST WONDERING Y THE ELECTICITY PRICE IS KILLING US GAS PRICE ALSO, THEY GIVE ALL THIS FREE TAX AREA TO YIDA BUT THAT WOULD NOT cripple us this is crazy

    • Who was it that said they going to remove to ‘wicked fuel variation tax’ but instead kept rising it? Who was it that move cooking gas from $21.00 to $32.00? I can say for sure it happen between 2004-2014?

        • My answer is no. I don’t know who this Gigi person is.
          Now answer my questions
          Who was it that said they going to remove to ‘wicked fuel variation tax’ but instead kept rising it? Who was it that move cooking gas from $21.00 to $32.00?
          Waiting paitenly Barbara Maria Gomez or you to hypocritical to answer

          • Who said 500 houses in 500 days
            Who said water will flow through the pipes in 14 days after the election in 2014.
            Who said more jobs
            Who said more investment
            Who said no new taxes
            Answer- Gaston Browne.
            The ABLP is a colossal failure. These were their flagship promises and they failed every test. In other words: DEM FLAP

    • To the ABLP SUPPORTERS: Has a cost analysis been carried out on the taxes we would loose on the YIDA and Paradise Lost projects?

      • You Barbara Maria Gomez is a lot like the leader of the UPP. You don’t want to accept responsibility for your mistakes. All you do is come on this site daily and keep crying about 500 houses and YIDA oh please get over it. If you party was doing so well they should not have lost so bitterly in 2014 that shows that Antigua people were fed up with them espically the leader who was finance minster. Your party was so screwed up and only thinking about themselves and who can secure them pension but you the hypocrite will never say they wrong all you can preach about is 500 house. May the Lord be with you.

        • That is strange. Ask Gaston any question and his rude response is: Don’t ask me.
          Well I have given the polite version of Gaston Browne’s rudeness. Memo to ABLP supporters. You may wish to be disrespected by the Prime Minister but not every body is like you.

      • Like I said you are a hypocrite me nah ask about what Gaston Browne said me ask about fuel variation tax and cooking gas but I’m just wasting my time on you cause you are a blind political foo

  7. Well well amnesia seems to like to common cold among the UPP supporters. And then gone to them usual tone 500 houses and gas just want to know in 2009 who rise cooking gas from $21.00 to $32.00

    • They forgot and All the projects they constantly boasting about but nah talk about IMF nor mass unemployment in Antigua…They seem to have all forgotten…I am starting to believe that the UPP and supporters just wanna see Antiguans that are prospering suffer….They dont like to see the people so happy under the ABLP and thats what’s killing them…

      • Please give more information about the Antiguans who are prospering? Do you mean those Antiguans who are having life so hard that their electricity had to be cut off?

    • Gaston implemented the Unincorporated Business Tax. Why don’t you talk about that. Gaston raised property tax. Why don’t you talk about that.
      And yes, the colossal failure the 500 houses in 500 days. By the way, why didn’t Gaston lower the cost of cooking gas? Bet you can’t answer that

      • You don’t give it a rest do you. I hope you not going to take on the UPP defeat on the 21st of March. I hear crazy house full.

        • Why should I give it a rest?
          Be careful how you use the term ” crazy” LOL. There is a certain individual who rants, raves, cusses and lies. He is from the West. He is famous for building latrines. The letters GN BN are in his name.

  8. Mr Joseph have more heart than 10 pack of cards…. talking bout parading around when he’s the Rolls Royce and Tesla minister…. ur so full of it…. age is really catching up on u sir!

  9. Wait wait wait is a new set of comedians here. Where is my old crew. Barbara and the rest shuty cheerleaders who love to use CAPS u all busy today? You putting poster and billboards? Damn these post nah as funny as these guys going to watch MSNBC if its one thing Trump is always there for a laugh

  10. This is a new low Mr. Joseph. You should never play around with death.
    On another matter:
    Under your Ministry, chemicals are being sprayed at the side of the road. Could you tell us what is in the chemicals being sprayed? Could you tell us what are the short, medium and long term effects of this?
    Further,
    You banned plastic bags. But are you comfortable with the thick red plastic that is wrapped around almost every pole in the entire island?

  11. This is low, leave the dead families out of it. MSJMC is a horror. So many hours wasted just waiting to be seen.
