Large crowd converges @ Dr D. Orlando Smith Hospital for COVID testing!
With some 480 confirmed active cases of the virus present in the territory as of July 5, 2021, testing sites have been scheduled with more announcements scheduled for today.
So far persons have turned out in droves to the lone public hospital on Tortola where a disorganised crowd was photographed this afternoon.
An eyewitness described the situation as confusing with hundreds of persons getting agitated, "it's crazy up there… like persons want to fight.”
Our news centre is also aware of similar complaints from persons on social media.
VINO reached out to the acting Chief Medical Officer, Dr Ronald E. Georges and Health Minister Hon Carvin Malone (AL) for comments; however, no response was received up to publication time.

As some people here are just discovering now, it IS AN EMERGENCY.
As the head of the NIH in Bethesda Md, Dr. Francis Collins said, the only corners that were cut in developing these much vaccines
Wait and see
Wait until the bodies start piling up and you’ll change your mind about the vaccine.
The government should really just open up the economy without any curfew or other curbing mechanisms. It’s obvious you guys are ok with the situation as is. So let is forge ahead with no vaccines and give the majority of the B.V.I what they want. A society where everyone does whatever they want.
