It would seem that Tropic would be doing the community a big service by coming up with a solution that would allow for emergency medical evacuations. Tropic is one of many businesses that owes its existence to the patronage of the people of San Pedro.
I am appalled that this long after after the BATSUB pull out the GOB has done nothing. I would think it a good idea if private sector worked out a plan whereby aircraft could be activated in a reasonable time for missions of mercy. I thought such a plan was in place.
The news story says there was a three hour wait for an aircraft, I would appreciate more information as to whether or not it is true and if true what broke down in our system. My son may have possibly died at birth if we were not able to get to the hospital quickly. Our airline companies play a vital role in our communities.
Unfortunately health care has never been regarded as a priority issue here, except by the people.
