PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Oregon’s governor said Friday she will send up to 1,500 National Guard troops to hospitals around the state to assist healthcare workers who are being pushed to the brink by a surge of COVID-19 cases driven by the Delta variant.
Gov. Kate Brown, a Democrat, said the first group of 500 Guard members will be deployed next Friday to serve as material and equipment runners in the most stricken hospitals and to help with COVID-19 testing, among other things. Troops will be sent to 20 hospitals around Oregon.
There are 733 people hospitalized with the virus in Oregon as of Friday, including 185 people in intensive care units — more than 60 people more than just a day before and nearly double what the number was two weeks ago.

Is this also due to hospitals firing those who won’t get the injection?
will they be killed as in New York; frozen cold in trucks.

Why is Breitbart posting crap from AP?
The vaccine is the vector.
The military cannot operate on US soil, nor do they have arrest powers.
How many of the sick are Illegals ?
Most vaxxed, harsh crackdowns.....but bad Delta outbreak. Coincidence?
So they’re gonna have TWO Nat Guard deployed for each hospitalized patient?
A total of 733 hospitalized in the entire state?? And they’re sending 1500 extra people to help? That makes no sense.
It does if spreading fear is the purpose.
Sensationalism to gin up more fear, and subsequently more totalitarian compliance.
Since Oregon has dropped mathematics from public school curricula, why not put those math teachers to work in hospitals, instead of the National Guard?
Many people in my family and circle of friends work in hospitals. All say they are not busy. I still know no one who has had symptoms bad enough to require a night in the hospital.
...so they can get sick and spread it elsewhere.
Jackson and Josephine counties are the heart of Oregon’s marijuana growing industry. Must be the Delta-9 THC variant of the ‘Rona.
Are the democrats still blocking low cost medicine called HCQ hydroxychloroquine and ivermectin that will save you if you get the virus?
Because nothing says “police state” more than uniformed military with deadly weapons posted at your hospital.
I know that anecdotal stuff is worthless, but the last time I heard of any particular person near me actually testing positive was probably back in March 2021.
They tell me it’s a crisis, hospitals are over-flowing, bodies are in the streets, and we need to lockdown big time because this is really, really bad.
I just don’t see it. At all.
Yet still people will believe this crap.
