Did we have any deaths in Jamaica? The DIASPORA is concerned

​​​@@joycebryan2584 Sweetie; The Entire Commonwealth is worried!🌏💜 (Don't use such Amcn silly words - "diaspora!") We are all one in the Commonwealth💜💜 As far as I have heard nobody has been k▪︎lled💜💜 My various friends phones are still off & their WiFi too (I got messages Wednesday morning) Anybody managed to speak to their Jamaican Friends or Relatives💜💜 ? (Am very worried still) Many ppl have boats that are their Livelihood - but they are saying on the News "a glancing blow not a direct hit!" So that's good💜💜 (One of my Friends & her Family live on the far side of the island & there's no power back up there - so it might be a day or two before things can get back to normal💜💜) God Bless Everybody🌸💜 & keep them/ us/everybody safe🙏🏻💜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💜 🇮🇪💜🇬🇧💜

Thank you how thoughtful one love empress

It's a lovely idea but the places they are staying might not let them stay longer (& because of Health & Safety Laws etc) I can't see anybody not helping though if they can💜💜 Have you heard from Friends or even Relatives there please💜💜 ?? Only I had messages Wednesday morning💜💜but nothing since (& most of my friends live away from Hotel Generators etc💜💜) The News says "A glancing blow" Not a direct hit!" So that's something ! & their WiFi + phones are down still) - could take a couple of days maybe? 🙏🏻💜🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💜 🇮🇪💜🇬🇧💜

It is not their job to help. They help by spending moey to go there. WHat if they get injured helping? That is an issue in its self.

In your opinion of course. I am sure that those who have lost loved ones will completely disagree with your silly comment...

Like Jamaicans can't take nothing serious fi real😂😂😂😂😂😂

Agreed. They should show all aspect...oh the drama of the media but we still send condolences to the family of those who lost their lives. We just want unbiased reporting.

I'm sure people in southern St. Elizabeth are not partying. Jamaica is not Kingston and St. Andrew.

As a Bajan I feel that is a Caribbean thing lol

💯

Lord wasn't watching over you, he sent a category 4 to punish you

Yea they overhyped this system. I have witness cat 4 before and what happens yesterday was bad was not a cat 4 bad

​@@kimoppleManchester and St. Elizabeth would beg to differ

Mandeville was smacked hard...

Power and connectivity are likely still a problem in areas. Try not to worry, island people are tough and prepared. ❤🙏

I presume you didn't experience Gilbert. I'm still traumatized by that hurricane 🌀

Majority of Jamaica has no idea what Beryl did to parts of the island. The people of Manchester who experienced the full force of Gilbert will tell you that this is worse than Gilbert. He who feels it knows it. I understand that based on your location you may have been spared, but people in the South are still trying to wrap their heads around the hours of horror yesterday which made Gilbert seem like a joke. No roof, no road, no light , no internet so the story can't get out.

I live in South Clarendon. I was a child when Gilbert came and a adult in Ivan. So I have experience in both major hurricanes. I'm without electricity from yesterday morning and water. I spent the entire day clearing up trees that had fallen from yesterday. It's rough.

Jamaicans reuse everything those zinc will become fences or animal pens for famers they don't go to waste, trees with me cut up and make coal or cut up and disposed of

@@northside3701 say what? This ain’t Jamaica first hurricane smh when it comes to hurricanes Jamaica is the strongest island in the Caribbean…. By next week everything is back to normal, y’all need to travel more

​@BeastSpedUP fi real. Some people jus love chat. Jamaicans will find use for the blown down trees and those zinc will be put back to good use. This is where Jamaicans will come together to rebuild. That's just how we are. All who you don't know will come to give a helping hand if you need it but a closed mouth cannot ask for help.
