"Please somebody help me" says PM Rowley as opposition opposes COVID restrictions

Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago asked people for their help to understand the undermining strategies of the United National Congress- the leading opposition party in the country.PM Rowley, who is currently in isolation after testing positive for COVID-19, wrote on Facebook, "Please. Somebody help me!,"He stated that he is trying to figure out precisely what is the latest UNC undermining strategy.He stated that on Sunday night news, he saw the MP for Couva South apparently stumbling to read an attack on the latest rollback of selected national activities on the day when we reported almost record levels of infection in community spread of the Covid-19 virus."MP for Couva claims that government should not have any of these restrictions because they will destroy the economy. What do they think an explosion of COVID-19 sickness will do, protect and expand the economy?" questioned PM Rowley.Furthermore, Prime Minister questioned that if the government don’t do any disruption now as the UNC is demanding, will the economy be better off in a full-blown COVID-19 take over, eventually requiring full-scale lockdown as some countries are currently undergoing."Interestingly the same spokesman who advocates the “do nothing” to “protect the economy” then says that the current unacceptable increase today should be blamed on the government for not shutting down Tobago and elsewhere during and around Easter," stated PM Keith Rowley.He also stated that the spike country is facing now didn’t start in Tobago and before Easter, the CMO's maps showed a progression from Deep South to Caroni to the East-West Corridor.

He stated the restrictions had been imposed because the most worrisome data is an increase in hospital occupancy from 5% to 25% in the last couple of weeks.

PM Rowley stated the trajectory is the biggest threat to the economy but does the UNC really care about the economy, or do they just say anything or do anything that they think will undermine a national fight when common sense tells us that we should all be pulling together.

"Talking on both sides of an issue and from both sides of your mouth is not helpful it is pitifully self-serving," added PM Rowley.
