Mother laments that Government’s vaccination mandate prevents her from accessing child-support at Magistrates Court

45

REAL NEWS: Unbeknown to many residents, the Gaston Browne Administration has mandated that all persons entering government offices show proof of inoculation.

Apparently this mandate came into effect on October 1, the same date that Cabinet set for all public-sector workers to be vaccinated.

A mother tells REAL News that she was asked for her vaccination card when she visited the St. John’s Magistrates’ Court to collect her child-support cheque.

She says she was called by the security guard, who asked her to produce the document.  When she said she did not have a card, she was told that it is a prerequisite for entering the building.

Our News Room contacted a source at the court and learned that the administrators had been issued two directives by the Permanent Secretary: one which specifically addresses workers’ vaccination status and the other speaking to the general safety of the work environment.

Accordingly, the source advises mothers who are unvaccinated to write a letter of permission and allow a vaccinated person to collect the child-maintenance cheques on their behalf.

Asked about unvaccinated men who must pay child support into the court, the source says they, too, can get someone who has been jabbed to deposit the payment, or ask the security officer to do so on their behalf.

The source says that not being allowed into the building will not become a “loophole” for non-payment, since these fathers will have to pay the arrears when picked up on a warrant.

Meanwhile, an irate woman tells REAL News that this new policy is unfair and wrong. “Imagine Government ah put pickney lives at risk by trying to starve them if their parents are not vaccinated,” she says.

She adds that she hates what is going on with the vaccination campaign and the taking away of people’s free will and right to choose.  She notes that those who are being denied entry to government buildings and access to services are also tax-payers, and this amounts to “taxation without representation.”

She sees the current situation as the Book of Revelation’s prophecy being fulfilled, in terms of persons requiring a government ID in order to buy or sell.

Another woman is wondering whether the presentation of vaccination cards will still be required once herd immunity is reached.

A source says that Antigua and Barbuda’s population is about 98,000.  Since many children will be unable to take the vaccine and other residents have medical conditions that prevent them from taking the jab, she says the 80,000 now required for herd immunity will not be reached.

“So what will the Government’s next move be?” she asks.

  1. If she cares about her children / nation safety she must get vaccinated. The only exception to this are medical grounds. Hard to believe that this lady things she has a right to put others at a increased risk of covid

    • Simple. She gets a cheque? What will happen when banks now require proof of vaccination to enter? Will she now say that the banks are starving her child?

      • Thats discrimination right there cause both vaccinated and unvaccinated and catch and SPREAD the virus so clearly this isn’t about covid or saving lives. Even PFIZER knows that NATURAL IMMUNITY is BETTER. Especially if they had the virus previously they are less likely to catch covid again unlike vaccinated people who will keep getting infected…vaccines are not necessary. Simple.

        • OMG!!! Tell me where was it ever said that vaccinated people couldn’t get the virus? Everyone is missing what the medical profession has been saying from day 1…..

          • Clearly alot of people including the PM thinks the vaccine makes them “immune”. He want 80000 for herd immunity right? Only vaccinated can enter some place right? When the vaccine just came out they told people it’d protect them from covid some people still stick with that opinion to this day although it’s false ….and as time pass they keep changing their mouth.

          • @ Missed it
            One of the Chief Justice in the United States disclosed last week that he had covid and he was fully vaccinated. This should answer your question.

      • Taking the devil’s bate man shall not live by bread alone but by the words of God if her faith in Christ is strong he will not let her or her children suffer … We have to answer to the almighty one day now that’s mandatory

    • Lmfao put others at risk how? She doesn’t need the vaccine to keep her children or the nation “safe” because the vaccine doesn’t make you “safe” from anything. She can care about her children and not take the vaccine so that right there is very ignorant of you to say. I don’t see how you vaccinated people always the ones to chat bullshit….youre “safe” and “protected” right? So worry bout your damn self.
      Hard to believe that vaccinated people still can’t realize that they are the problem just as much as this so called vaccine….take a hike.

      • That’s right……The vaccines are poison. Imagine being in an era where the vaccine is sooooooo experimental to the point where they don’t know for sure what the side effects really are in the long run….and yet still mandating it and coercing people and bribing people to take it when we have our God given immune systems built for fighting? There’s no need for the vaccine whatsoever but if you take it, that’s on you but respect other people’s choices to cause it’s already proven that both can still catch and transmit it, be hospitalized and DIE. I’ll take my chances and use NATURAL things to boost and build my NATURAL immune system. Aryu like you fraid fa dead so you run to take the vaccine but news flash: you’re gonna die anyways. Death is inevitable.

    • Why don’t you shut the hell up!!!! you along with other political prostitutes should be sent to jail for supporting these criminals on both sides red and blue. how is she putting other at risk if they are already vaccinated? Isn’t that the point of the vaccine idiot?. Y’all are so program and dumb you just repeat the same dumb point over and over. This is why people in my age group hate you people, y’all destroyed our future and the country for the love of politics. Antigua is a dump thanks to both sides. I keep seeing “Charles tabor, red koolaid and shithead tenman…and others” in almost every comment section . You can’t teach us nothing cause we see y’all are idiots. We not old and fooly like you guys and we damn sure are not lovers of party. We are a new bread of young people. This is inhumane and a breach of the ( INTERNATIONAL COVENANT ON CIVIL AND POLITICAL RIGHT) ARTICLE 7 “No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment. In particular, no one shall be subjected without his free consent to medical or scientific experimentation.” Got it dumb dumb… AND THESE ARE RIGHT THAT NO GOVERNMENT SHOULD TOUCH NOT EVEN IN A STATE OF EMERGENCY… so already they are criminals…We are more educated than you dummies think… We did go to school you know so please shut up and do us young people a favor kill yourself *ALL OF YOU!!! your in the way of our future…. not gonna respond after this… VACCINE MANDATE IS BECOMING A TOOL TO TAKE OUR RIGHTS NOT TO SAVE LIVES…. NO ONE SHOULD BE DENIED THE RIGHT TO FEED THEIR CHILDREAN (WAS GONNA CURSE but imma be clean) POLITICAL PROSTITUTES MAKE ME SICK!!!

      • Tell them!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This is legit a crime against humanity happening right in front our faces but they’d call that conspiracy. Idk what a vaccination card have to do with whether people make money, eat and SURVIVE. Up front asking someone to see their card or anything medical is violating HIPAA. NO BUSINESS OR ANYOME HAS THE RIGHTTTTT TO ASK OR SEE IF YOU’RE VACCINATED OR NOT. MOVE ARYU MUDDACUNT.

        Sincerely.

      • Put the mental crack pipe down. All that drivel you wrote, I am surprised you have not feinted yet. Look at all that bile, as if you are choked up. Not surprised that you current mental state will cause you to only manufacture more. Note well people of your mindset remain in my prayers however I well know you can’t cure dumb/stupid

        • @tenman Sadly we know we can’t cure stupid cause it’s been tried with you several times.
          People with your stubborn and ignorant mindset, there’s no hope for you. They can show you that the sky is blue but you’ll wait to see if your master agrees or not to mimick what he says. Really sad. Instead of talking go take some time to figure out if you can think for yourself. 😂😂😂😣

    • If ur vaccinated why are worrying about unvaccinated people aren’t u fully protected lmaooooooooo tap tell ppl Fu tek jab u a doctor ppl dying from the vaccines talk bout that God forbid she take the jab and die and her children will be without a mother all because she was forced against her will something she’s not sure about ur comments are very dumb and dunce u must be getting paid to make there comments cause I refuse to believe a human being is soooooo stupiddddddddd and u vaccinated and still scared hhahahahahahaha look lmaoooo so what’s the point of ur vaccination hahhahHAHAHHAHA I have tears in my eyes literally me carn even type good yah ur just exposing y we shouldn’t even vaccinated in the first place look u dunce a r@#@ I can’t mah belly mah side ribs HAHAHAHA

      • Why ask a question already answered? Think you know that’s rhetorical because its well known you can’t make sense, only shout. Comdoms are know as a form of a protection yet we all know they are not 100%. The same applies to birth control pills. Day one we were warned about the dangers of virus mutations and the unvaccinated yet watch you continue to ignore the obvious. Foot of the cross you bottom without a hole

        • Boy your reference to condoms are stupid. We are taking about a make believe experimental magic potion vaccine in a global world pandemic. The only one ignoring the obvious is YOU. It is causing the spread and the mutation not the unvaccinated. We had no new strains this consistently when no vaccine were available.

          • Guy condoms, masks, birth control pills, seat belts, bullet proof vests, are not 100 percent. We also continue to improve the tech behind most of them.

    • What does collecting a child support check has to do with being Vaccinated? As long as she is wearing a mask inside and outside of that Building. Who the hell cares if she is Vaccinated or not? In my opinion,the Court should set up direct deposits into those mothers Banks Accounts. So that they do not have to come to the Court to collect such funds. This system seems backward to me. I am so very happy I left Antigua over 4 decades ago. I am fully Vaccinated of my own free will. No one forced me and or coerced me to do so. No one threatened my financial longevity, with being sent home without pay. This Vaccine matter is getting way out of hand. In my opinion the Administration is now abusing the Citizens and Residences of Antigua and Barbuda with that Vaccine Mandates. Gaston”EL JEFA”Browne just hoping you do not live to regret your decisions making. Take your feet off of the necks of the Citizenry.

    • You are all so damn ignorant, vaccinated persons can contract, share and spread the virus. Because you chose to be a ginepig, does not give you the right to tell people what they should do.If you are so convinced about the Jab, why are you so scared of the unvaccinated. Bunch of jackass.

      • Police men wearing bullet proof vests are still at risk of dying from being shot. However we still advocate for its use since its recognized that the risk is reduced. Other examples are condoms, seat belts, masks, cycling helmets

    • So the vaccine is about social acceptance for you? Poor thing.😂😂😂😂 Really sad.

    • are you purposely retarded or just naturally born dunce? did you think before making such a statement?
      the revalation says you cannot do business without the mark of the beast but yet you have so much of a sheep brain that you self stated “go get ur vaccine and your life will run a lot more smoothly”.

      if you really chupit and dotish to think this is about covid and about vaccines you will perish when you come to realise too late thats its about placing ppl like u under the beast system by branding yourself through the same vaccine you took, the economic crash thats coming and everyone with money gonna lose it all, high prices of food going into empty shelves, ppl like you gonna get caught hungry because you are not planting anything and not stocking up on food.

      PS: gaston clown with all his wealth but yet made a farm, why do you think that is?

    • All good until you realise that the vaccinated face real and high risks of strokes, developing blood clots or dying suddenly from heart attacks in the short term, and unknown woes and possible infertility in the longer term. All for a disease that has a 99.8 survival rate, and can readily be treated / prevented by cheap, repurposed drug protocols. You sound dumb.

  2. It crazy how we have been divided because of a vaccine, its either some commentary are paid to comment or its a Robot posting some heartless comments. To be fearful and heartless

    • Sometimes you have to be hard in order to get people to do the right thing. Doubt if your spouse did things to cause you harm, your response would be soft. The unvaccinated put us all at unnecessary risk, even the vaccinated. One example is currently the hospital has to reduce normal screenings and operations due to it being overburdened by the high number of the unvaccinated up there with covid. This then means even the vaccinated are negatively impacted by the decision to not get vaccinated

  3. People that are vaccinated hope u guys live for ever and ever and ever this vaccine sounds like it’s the cure for all sicknesses good for u guys… Question tho if ur “fully vaccinated and protected” why u worry so much about getting covid seems like y’all worry more than people who’s not vaccinated lol I swear Antigua is becoming a cartoon show

  4. Fully vaccinated people are still catching covid still spreading it and still dying from it so what’s really going on go figure

  5. all the sheep dem keep drinking the koolaid the government gives them to drink.
    if you took an injection, medication, vaccine etc, to avoid or prevent a particular issue then why do you have to worry about catching what you were told you would be protected against?

  6. The sad thing about it preventing someone from entering the Magistrate Court because they are not vaccinated is not the law. The last Regulations of 17 September, 2021 does not say that. I spoke to an official at the Magistrate Court who told me that they were acting on a directive from the Permanent Secretary. Directives are not law and the Permanent Secretaries and Cabinet should know that.

  7. Tenman: What is going to happen to those who have cases to answer in the Courts? Do they have to show proof of Vaccination? If so,I would signed my name on some CDC Vaccination Cards for them. LOL

    • We already handle some matters virtually. Guy covid is serious and no one should be taking unnecessary risks
      The data shows the unvaccinated are more likely to catch and spread covid than the vaccinated

    • RED KOOL AID great question. TENMAN is living in his Gaston Browne fantasy world as the leading apologist and propagandist.
