Unvaccinated vendors, taxi drivers ‘acting the fool’- Skelton-Cline
Addressing the issue of tourism workers still refusing to get the vaccine, Skelton-Cline called out unvaccinated tourism workers on the Tuesday, September 7, 2021, edition of his Honestly Speaking show on ZBVI 780 am.
“You want to keep acting the fool? You want to keep thinking that we don’t live in a brand-new world? All I’m saying to you is a better and more effective way of protecting your livelihood, protecting your industry for the long haul is taking advantage of anything that’s available to you to ensure the safety, security of life and livelihood,” he said.
Skelton-Cline continued, ‘Stop getting into these arguments, stop creating divisions where they should not be any divisions,” he said.
Vaccine an efficient way to protect livelihood - Skelton-Cline
The commentator further encouraged locals to let the tourists have the use of the beaches for the time, given the territory needs the money from the industry.
“You think I will be taxi service provider got a vaccine and don’t get vaccinated and then driving around people… and then I go home to my wife and my child and then contaminate, infect my whole house especially when we don’t have a vaccine for all our children yet?” he further questioned.
Since becoming available in February, the Government of the Virgin Islands (VI) has been pushing vaccination as the best tool to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic.
Currently, the Oxford-AstraZeneca jab, which is given in two doses about four weeks apart for full inoculation against the virus, is available in the Virgin Islands free of cost.

I am not prepared to get into a taxi with a non-vaccinated driver.
If I were your sister, I would encourage you to be part of the solution and get yourself fully vaccinated to protect your health, as well as the health of your family, your friends, and the greater BVI community. Please.
take the vaccine if you want; some the joint if you want
a number of persons who are encouraging others to become vaccinated are not themselves. Many who claimed to have been vaccinated with vaccination cards or proof of vaccination, have not been vaccinated but have used their political links and other influences to obtain legitimate cards.
