Sands acknowledged in a statement yesterday that as the country was taking “a step in the right direction” with the distribution of vaccines, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) re-designation to level four status from warning level three for its COVID-19 Travel Health Notices was “not a step in the direction The Bahamas wants to go”.
