Citizens caught in the middle
DEAR EDITOR,
It would appear both sides of the divide are each caught between a rock and hard place. One side, amid the brouhaha and calls a certain brand of vaccine being fake, now the latest to join the melee are the statements attributed to an advisor of a sitting Caricom head of government, on the brand of vaccine at the centre of the controversy, which have been denounced (NewsRoom June 18). Just how and on what basis an advisor was given such latitude to make such statements, which can be construed as being for and on behalf of the government, is yet to be determined. Now the government has to do damage control and mend relations. While the other side has been accused of anti-vaccination stance and stoking fear-mongering with incendiary statements of misinformation.
So for days, time and monies are spent defending, explaining, advocating, justifying, endorsing, supporting, upholding and of course arguing, their respective positions. And, we, the people, are caught in the middle.
