    Jamaica Jeff,

    That argument might hold water if the constituents actually thought that. Everyone I know (locals/constituents) just assume the tourists are out and about and welcome them as they always have. Tourists rent cars, restaurants and bars are open, as are attractions - and all these places are staffed by the constituents you mention....

    We all know that the "strict" protocols are not being followed. But overall, the "stay in zone" order is being observed. The "stay on property" is being ignored and everyone knows it...

    As it should be. I just hope people respect the local populace and mask up when out and about. If I were to go a Covid test would be my last check the box item before I left. On a another note, I was talking with my a driver buddy of mine yesterday and he is working, while his employees have chosen to sit it out due to Covid concerns. From what I'm hearing locals who benefit from the tourist industry are itching to get things rolling in this new norm, and hopefully with the right precautions Jamaica can continue to mitigate a huge outbreak while allowing some visitors to return.

    Sorry, should have made it clear that everyone here knows that.
