This open door come as many as you like no restrictions no public control policy by Armengol will led to her political end eventually . Shame about the many deaths it has and will cause on her watch as she put economics before public safety and health ! . A limited controlled approach to restarting tourism would have worked a lot better and be a much more balanced safer approach . Unfortunately economic greed and pushing by some Ceo s has caused the Government here to fail on Covid . With current Covid numbers yesterday it is not safe here by WHO standards ! . Full stop .
The problem is not that people break the rules, the problem is not requiring testing to come to the island. How many times are we going to go backward.
The policies of the past few weeks look more and more like a deliberate attempt to destroy the the hard work and sacrifice of (most) Balearic residents that have achieved ‘green light’ status. It is typically envious of a communist government to despise the ‘elitism’ that the Balearics have achieved, and it is equally typical for them to wipe out any progress not made as a result of communist policies.
Eventually we will realise that restrictions just keep delaying the inevitable. Portugal and Mallorca who had tough winter lockdowns to save the summer are now seeing this. Just at a time when they don’t need it. The most we can do is vaccinate and get on with it now.
