One-by-one Trumper states succumbing to Covid - ID declares Hospital crisis

[reagansghost]

State officials made the announcement Thursday, which will permit medical facilities to ration health care and triage patients.


Kootenai Health, a hospital in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, has already converted a conference room into an overflow Covid unit, started paying traveling nurses $250 an hour and brought in a military medical unit. The hospital received permission from the state to begin rationing care last week. That's all in response to the Covid surge that in recent weeks has taken over much of Idaho — a state with one of the nation's lowest vaccination rates.

"It's just nonstop trying to find placement for these patients and the care that they need," said Brian Whitlock, the president and CEO of the Idaho Hospital Association, who noted that hospitals across the state are struggling with the same issue. "It really is a minute-by-minute assessment of where beds are open, and hospitals saying we don't know where we're going to put the next one."

A regional transfer hub for patients in urgent need of critical care — typically things like car accidents, heart attacks and strokes — Kootenai Health has had to turn down 392 patient transfer requests in the month of August because of their number of Covid patients.

The comments come despite Kenney’s government making decisions this summer to leave the pandemic behind itself by treating it as endemic and attempting to live with the virus. The province first removed almost all public health measures July 1 — a move chief medical officer of health Dr. Deena Hinshaw acknowledged this week led to the fourth wave — and then planned to remove all virus containment measures in August before walking back that plan.

Murphy hard at work ^^

Wouldn't it be great if the Trumpiods would purge themselves by refusing to get vaccinated.

Always a laugh the way those on the right can take an abstract concept as "freedom" and reduce it to a bumper sticker cliché

When freedom comes to be defined in terms of shopping at Walmart and attending the Golden Corral's buffet you know we have gone beyond the point of diminishing returns

As Locke implied, and Voltaire explained, Freedom is based upon reason, not desire

it is a sign saying you do not have to wear a mask there or practice virus safety.

Worth mentioning that Alberta Canada is the most right wing of Canadian provinces. It is often included as one of the states in the proposed Jesusland:

The perfect Justice has a way of serving that mere mortals in their tainted way at giving tRump and repukes a free pass fall short, and that are incapable of obstructing. The spirit is a mighty force to reckon with.

So they are Trump voters too? You realty are too fucking dumb for words. A vast majority of anti-vaxers are blacks and Latinos. The constituency Democrats claim belong to them. Be less of a moron.

[Truth Detector]

Retarded nonsense.

Yes, you are.

That's what seems to be happening.

They're doubling down on COVID now, which is weird because it's going to kill a lot of them before next year's midterms.
