Acting Chief Medical Officer Dr Phillip Swann.

HEALTH officials are urging parents to ensure that their children’s immunisations are up to date, warning that they “are seeing the rise of forgotten illnesses in developed countries” that could potentially pose a threat to The Bahamas.

Acting Chief Medical Officer Dr Phillip Swann made the plea yesterday during a press conference at the Office of The Prime Minister where he also advised Bahamians to continue following the recommended health measures like handwashing and appropriate cough etiquette.

He said the ministry has already received reports of cases of influenza-like illnesses and even identified influenza type A (H3N2), though he noted that it was not a cause for concern as the number of confirmed cases were not high. Diseases like polio, whooping cough and measles are also of concern.

“So, as a reminder, the pandemic is not over. We are also entering the flu season, so we ask you to exercise the usual protective and infection control measures of washing hands, wearing a face mask and appropriate cough etiquette,” the acting CMO said.

“We imagine that after the mask mandate has been lifted, there may be a rebound increase in the number of cases (or) reported cases of acute respiratory illnesses and these may be COVID-19 or influenza or any other illness that may be transpired or transmitted.

“However, we once again emphasise the need for personal responsibility - and if your child or you have signs of a respiratory illness, stay at home, or keep your child at home and call your primary care provider for advice.”

In terms of immunisations, Dr Swann said it was especially important for parents to ensure that their children keep up with their routine vaccinations given the resurgence of “formerly eradicated” illnesses such as polio among other diseases.

“We understand that during the past two years, there may have been a challenge with accessing these vaccines in our clinics. However, access to clinics have changed in recent weeks and we encourage persons to please ensure that your child’s immunisation is up to date,” he continued.

“We are seeing the rise of forgotten illnesses in developed countries, including parts of the world that we call source markets. Most of the working adults are immunised and none the worse for it.

“It is the little children who are not being given an opportunity to see the routine immunisations, who are at risk for serious illnesses and in some cases, death. Immunised adults are immune from contracting disease, yet they can still serve as carriers and subsequently infect children and others who have not had the benefit of vaccines.”

He also revealed that officials have been advised that The Bahamas could experience imported cases of polio as a result of it being circulated in New York and London, “two cities with whom we have direct flights multiple times a week.”

Dr Swann added: “We have actually had an imported case of pertussis or whooping cough in the past month.”

“In recent memory, we’ve had cases of reported measles, and the reality is that these formerly eradicated illnesses are making a comeback because of low numbers of persons having had their child vaccinated with the same vaccines that they were vaccinated with their children.

“It is perhaps a good time to remind the public of the complications of one or two of these infections, which like other infections one cannot see on an individual. Polio represents a sore throat and fever and may progress to headaches, dizziness and neck and back pain, and most severe presentations progress to flaccid paralysis and death.

“There is no treatment for polio, but it may be self-limiting.”

Vaccines for polio, German measles or rubella among other diseases are available in the country free of cost, he added.

Wow , you are asking parents to be accountable?

And in the same breath he is calling parents heroes for fearing medical mischief as he also throws French unwanted covid vaccines into the stew. Fishy if persons are being paid to give failed inoculations to infants. Bahamian parents are also concerned about the silence of our doctors in giving The Bahamas amongst the highest per capita Autism rate.

People have simply had enough of the medical community. Not interested. You can't ask questions anymore without being branded a terrorist or a conspiracy theorist. So many will just sit on the sidelines and pray for the best. Without real doctors, we only have God left on our side. Lockdowns, travel restrictions, forced chemicals on our hands, people have simply had enough, and the downturn in the economy world-wide is proof of this. Of course they are blaming the downturn in the economy on Russia and Ukraine - as if everything in the entire world is made in the Ukraine. I thought it was China - LOL. The fact is, people have simply turned off and are doing nothing and seeking nothing. Thus there is no activity, no economic activity, no activity of any kind - except videos and gaming online.

The older doctors of mercy of my generation were the likes of Dr. Kirk Culmer but today they are medical dealer business mercenaries in coatsuits and stock holdings. Strange and suspicious also that the covid historical narrative told, our medicines once approved by WHO in any nation, mostly poor Asian territory they are considered safe for Pan America inclusive of The Bahamas, exception being that those medication have ducked FDA and European Medical Industry scientific medical scrutiny.

Yes Jockey, only in the Bahamas is Gaming not classified according to American Association of Psychiatry DSM-5 for destructive addiction along with cocaine. Even WHO /PAHO ICD says the same. Medical authorities have pushed us off the cliff as s backward stupids.

Dumbo monster Darville and his minions like Swann continue to relentlessly press for our young children to be needlessly jabbed with these experimental vaccines as if they are personally pocketing a handsome commission per jab.

Dumbo monster Darville and his minions like Swann should all be held down by parents and grandparents of school age children and repeatedly jabbed over and over again with the very same dangerous poison they want to inject into the bodies of all their young loved ones.

Did we ever know who benefitted from all of the 242 COVID-19 enforced protocols? ...... Tests, masks, sanitizer, deep cleaning, vaccines etc????

Will be interesting if we follow the money and track the PEPs involved in those contracts since March 2020.
