  • IT'S OFFICIAL.
    We don't want to cause a panic or scare anyone, but we did want to make sure everyone is aware of this newest development. Last night, February 21, 2022, the American Samoan Government officially announced that we have several positive COVID-19 cases in our community of American Samoa.
    The territory is on CODE RED ALERT for at least the next week and possibly more. You can find regular updates at www.americansamoa.gov/ and / americansamoadoh . Plus, we'll be sharing information on our social media platforms as well.
    Please be patient with us as we figure out a new routine with everyone at home and while we wait to see what this will mean for us in the long-term.

    Thank you for providing these updates in Am. Samoa. I'm a survivor of C19, I had a severe covid case in Dec 2020. I was bedridden for a month. I was missing out on Christmas and New Year's holiday celebrations. My advice is to always be active, make sure that you have a strong immune system.

So common suggestion was allot of fluids but if they forget ask for antibodies I received Monoclonal and it really helped me and my wife.

    When are people going to learn? Nobody can stop it nor can we hide forever. The best way to defeat this virus is by strengthening the immune system and keep the respiratory system clear. Masks don’t stop the virus. Smh. Here in the States people are starting to realize that vaccinations and mask don’t help. The virus doesn’t have hours of rest so hurting businesses will not stop it either. Keep safe and healthy. Be blessed.

    Here in Indiana it’s business as usual. No mask and everything is open. This last wave after Christmas had a few people sick. But it was never as bad as the news made it out to be. I had it early in 2020 and It was like a bad flu. My wife and son had it last fall, but I never got it a second time and we never distanced ourselves from each other. That being said my 96yr old grandma got it in the Nursing home and pasted away last year. I know it’s kinda scary, but don’t live in fear.
    I’m half way through your book. I can’t wait till all this stuff is over and they open up the flights. My wife and I plan to visit. I sent you a email awhile back. My wife is a 26yr nurse with a public health degree. When our last son graduates high school in 2yrs we are going to look into getting a nursing contract for her. I’m retired and looking forward to fishing. We hope you keep up the videos during Covid. Stay safe…

But if my wife can get a Nursing contract we many be able to live in Samoa. I have a pretty decent income for retiring early. And I believe we could live very comfortable on just my income with not having to worry about health insurance. After her contact is up would we have to leave the island or can we just rent a place? Is there anyway someone can buy land or a home if we are not from there? I don’t mind renting if we can get a long term lease..

    Covid 19 is a strange one, some people experience no symptoms, some, like my nephews only experienced a loss of taste for a few days, but there are those that it really attacks, and it ain't nothing nice. My boss had got it and given it to me. I can tell you this, I thought I was going to die, it attacked my blood pressure something serious, but I managed to pull through, my boss on the other hand, didn't fare so well, it killed him. (talk about survivors guilt...)So don't take it too lightly, even though it's not too bad for some, it can be way too much for others so be careful.

    Two years of getting vaccinated and boosted is going to make a big difference in the toll covid-19 takes on Am. Samoa. I hope everyone stays safe and cooperates with best practices for health and survival. It seems to affect people so differently, both the harm from the disease and the mitigation measures themselves. Coping skills aren't exactly evenly distributed throughout humanity.
