Nope, unlike you I actually live in the DR so I will have to wait like the rest of my fellow Dominicans.

Coronavirus - In the DR

And it will start becoming worse. Once you hit a certain threshold of daily cases, there is a point of no return... See USA, Europe...
I crossed paths with the self-styled "Mr T" in Sosua yesterday. He was formally a bit of a local personality, an Australian who made mildly useful videos about life for gringos in the DR. He seems to have re-invented himself as a virus expert/world political philosophy guru, or as some would say a wild conspiracy theorist/dangerous misinformation peddler. He thrust this piece of paper into my hand:
I wonder what he thinks he is achieving, distributing such stuff? Personally, I think he should go back to making jolly videos and keep his personal agenda to himself.

As time went by his videos started getting weirder and weirder...... He would fit right in here 😄😄😄
At 5:01am this morning, while queued up inside the farmacia, I overheard the person in front of me, who happened to be eating a flaky crust empanada, telling the person in front of her, that she overheard the watchman, telling a motoconcho, that his neighbor's son, who is a bag boy at Jumbo, saw a screenshot on an iphone 12 Pro Max, of a Whatsapp posting, posted by the owner of his girlfriend's salon, stating that the RD government will be utilizing the vast network of carwashes across the nation to distribute Covid vaccinations to those with cedulas. For those without cedulas, the government is still trying to develop a legal workaround that will allow them to pay a fee, not penalty, for their injection/vaccinations.
This is what I took away from it, as it was difficult to hear every word with Chimbala and Bulin47 playing in the background.

Abinader sobre vacunación a migrantes:
El presidente Luis Abinader aseguró que aquellos migrantes indocumentados que se encuentran en el país no serán vacunad
typing it does not make a lie true.
You have some evidence of deaths caused by administration of a Covid vaccine?
Of course not.
90 million cases and 2 million dead.
People without cedulas will spread the virus just like those with cedulas.
If the government wants max benefit from the vaccine it will vaccinate everyone as fast as possible.
How many illegals here have no cedula?
Estimates have between 650,000 and one million Haitians living in the DR.
Not like the DR cannot afford to give out the vaccines.
I thought this was a national health and economic crisis and we are looking to save a buck ?
Haiti 10,000 Covid-19 cases, the DR 183,000; Could mass parasite campaigns with Ivermectin have made the difference?
The medical establishment in the Dominican Republic has again gone public speaking out against the use of Ivermectin regarding Covid-19 virus. In the Dominican Republic, almost covertly, thousands of physicians are sucessfully using the drug that was discovered by a former Nobel Prize winner. In...

Well, since there is a track record of the very low death rate already I would expect that to continue. More cases and yet still low death rate.
Losing a foot, say to diabetes, has also a very low death rate....... anyhow I will stay give it a pass...
Infection and death figures from Haiti have to be taken with not one grain, but a full salt shaker.
Haiti lacks anything closely resembling a national health system, much less a proper civil system.
People are born day in and day out, yet there’s not one iota on any records of these births.
Same happens to deaths, where families avoid paying the municipal cemetery fees, by paying the caretakers to carry out burials during off business hours. Some just bury them in the old church linked cemeteries lots left since 1804. Plenty of small of these all over Haiti.
No records of being born, no ID, no death record.
I know Haitians that have no idea of their kin, since many are born to the same mother and different fathers each. And as no records exist, the links are moot.
Aside from these, Haiti’s median age for the population is one of the lowest in our hemisphere. Most Haitians haven’t seen a vaccine since birth, let alone a real national campaign that did so with any success over 20% of the existing population.
Their average age is what’s keeping the death toll lower a bit, but true numbers are anyone’s guesses.
Just staying alive until 60 is a record in Haiti.
Think carefully of the following, after the large earthquake that killed over 160,000 people (median death toll so far) the final or at least more certain tally is NOT available.
Nobody can tell you for certain!!! After 20 years of investigations yielded very little and more questions than answers.
If you want to find a better more honest example, try another country with the same population or close to it in our side of the world.
Like Honduras and Bolivia, since Venezuela and Cuba’s figures can’t be verified by any independent source.
