After a massive 6 mile-high eruption of ashes from the Soufriere volcano frightened the residents of Saint Vincent, Prime Minister Ralph Gonsalves said that only those who have been vaccinated for the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus could board the cruise ships evacuating people off the island.
“The chief medical officer would be identifying the persons already vaccinated so that we can get them on the ship,” Gonsalves told reporters.
He then explained that there were not enough personnel operating the ships to retain evacuees on them; they can only transport passengers.
“Those that are vaccinated, [the chief medical officer] can get them going on the vessel,” the prime minister said.
“Those who are not yet vaccinated but who would be vaccinated, you wouldn’t send them immediately after vaccination,” due to possible side effects like “wooziness in the head, you know how that is,” he said.
According to World Health Organization WHO data, only 10,805 residents of St. Vincent and the Grenadines have received at least one vaccine dose.
Saint Vincent was blanketed with a thin layer of ash and a “strong sulfur” smell hung in the air on Saturday, a day after the nearby volcano spectacularly erupted after decades of inactivity.
Rumbling noises emanated from the volcano, with ash coating rooftops, cars, and roads in Kingstown, the capital of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. Videos from Saint Vincent showed a ghost-like landscape.
On Friday, CruiseRadio.net reported that two cruise ships had arrived at the small island to rescue its residents, adding that three more were on the way.
“Carnival Legend and Carnival Paradise are offshore from St. Vincent, awaiting further instructions from local officials on how Carnival Cruise Line can support the evacuation of local residents who are under threat from volcano La Soufriere,” Carnival Cruise Line told CruiseRadio.net in a statement. “Carnival and Royal Caribbean are also working to coordinate our collective efforts for a seamless operation once the embarkation of residents begins. There is no time yet set for when these evacuation sailings will commence.”
St. Lucia, Grenada, Antigua, and Barbados accepted taking in evacuees from the disaster area, with the condition that evacuees are fully vaccinated against the CCP Virus, which causes the disease COVID-19.
Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, where just over 100,000 people live, has not experienced volcanic activity since 1979, when an eruption caused approximately $100 million in damage. Before that, La Soufriere erupted in 1902 and killed more than 1,000 people.
Like friggin’ lepers now?
I was wondering when they were going to evacuate those boars (bores?).
The children are left behind.
How do people boar a vessel???
There won’t be any death panels.
“Carnival Paradise”
We did a cruise on the Paradise years ago. It was a non-smoking ship back then but I guess they’ve gone smoking now...and volcano dust.
With big balls.......
Don’t bore me with details. All boars aboard!
To ‘stir the pot’, now is the time for someone to offer a vessel to evacuate ONLY the non maskers/vax.
Like here, I have no problem with the Govt ‘suggesting’ no smoking in restaurants and/or airliners etc BUT for them to enforce it and then NOT allow me/you to offer the same service to the smokers is plain old fashioned BullSchiff.
‘They’ say the public doesn’t want it but if they offered it and no one came, the businesses would just shut down and not offer the service.
I wonder if someone had a yacht, was trying to leave, would they take it away from them had they not been vaccinated?
I’m in Macomb Co. Michigan.
Yesterday, I wanted to go out for lunch.
The first place had a sign that said closed until further notice.
The next two places were shuttered as well.
My wife googled and came back with Whitmer urges stoppage of indoor dining for two weeks.
Eventually, we did find a local haunt open and learned wait staff are receiving their stimulus checks and have no incentive to come in. Plus other wait staff have come down with the China Plague.
I had conversations with some familiar staff/managers and they’re attitudes are no longer fun and easy. They are short/rude and obviously stressed about making the rent/mortgage payments.
I pray for them all, all who voted for Trump. The rest of the tards can GTH.
This is pure evil.
People have lost...their...minds.
Yes, but please, leave the bores on the island.
“””Only Vaccinated Persons Can Boar Evacuation Vessels to Leave Island Volcano”””
What’s next? Maybe-—
Only Vaccinated Persons Can Go To a Hospital If They Have Covid Symptoms
Remember the days when the person who would make triage decisions would be the last to leave? He is probably now discussing with the Chinese the value of a depopulated flattened island with the soil enrichened with volcanic ash. You can establish the world’s biggest marijuana plantation. The fishing rights in the surrounding waters are not to be forgotten. Let no crisis go to waste.
A vessel boarer...
>>To ‘stir the pot’, now is the time for someone to offer a vessel to evacuate ONLY the non maskers/vax.
I think the issue is that the other islands won’t let them get off the ship if they are not vaccinated.
