That's amounts to LESS THAN ONE PER HOSPITAL!
This story is nothing but theater and propaganda.
There have been many such propaganda pieces used in several states. In Florida they "found a document" where hospitals were requesting ventilators from the government. The number of ventilators requested was 100. Again LESS THAN ONE PER HOSPITAL.
Stories and deceptions like this keep coming up because the liars correctly assume the average person has no idea how many hospitals are in their state. Most people know of a few hospitals and that's it so they assume the number of hospitals is very low when in reality most large populace states have a hundred or more hospitals with many numbering in the hundreds of hospitals.
Folks do your homework and teach others how to spot these lies. Most of the lies can't withstand even the most basic objective scrutiny. They can be quickly exposed as most of the government and medias lies are literally childish in sophistication.
They are pulling the same BS in East Tennessee...’National Guard...oh, my!’
Nurses who don’t want the jab are quitting, so they need the national guard members to do TikTok dance videos.
Stories like this are great at converting skeptics because they are so easily exposed as propaganda.
Teach people how to spot these lies.
Why is it that every source announcing upticks in COVID is a left-leaning source?
Right off the bat I can tell you that stories like this have popped up all over the country and the second even the most basic questions are asked they start falling apart and end up shown as an obvious deception or outright fabrication. Then the story goes away because it has outlasted it's usefulness.
So my question to you would be. Where are you getting this information and what questions have been ask to confirm the truthfulness of the information?
21 deaths? People die all the time every day. How do you know these people died OF covid 19 not With covid 19? Or did they have covid 19 at all. How many people admitted to the hospital were admitted for symptoms of covid vs admitted for other non related issues?
Questions like this can be hard to get accurate information or any information at all so most of what is out there is just made up or repeated garbage that is totally inaccurate.
What we do know for sure is that many stories like this have been scrutinized and found to be either deceptive or outright fabrication. So apply logic and ask yourself. If covid is really killing this many people and hospitals are truly being overrun why resort to fabrication and deception?
That’s what I’m not figuring out. It’s almost like different diseases. I just checked and we have had 7776 infections since it started and 109 deaths. We had one death in March. If my math is right, we have a .014% death rate and a 99.986 recovery rate.
We haven’t been locked down. No mandates like masks or anything else. I wear mine in crowds like my doctor said but most people don’t. I went for my skin cancer check and went in with my mask. I asked the lady if we were still supposed to wear them and she said “no, we aren’t doing that anymore”. All of our restaurants have been open for inside dining, beauty shops are open, everything is open and has been since shortly after COVID first started.
My husband and I have different doctors but both told us to get our flu shot and we’d be OK. Nothing about the COVID vax. All mine said was that I didn’t need to get get sick with flu and COVID at the same time so get my flu shot.
My daughter, granddaughter, and son-in-law have been vaccinated but my granddaughter said we didn’t need it. They work in a larger city. We are retired. We have both decided not to get it until a traditional vaccine comes out. We take it more seriously than most around us due to our ages but this vax is just too new for us right now. We aren’t anti-vax but it scares me more than the virus right now, especially since we see so little COVID.
When I checked a few minutes ago the whole state of Tennessee is only 40% fully vaxxed. People have died, especially in the big cities, but they aren’t dropping like flies like the media makes it sound is happening in other places. I don’t trust anything the media says so that’s why my question. Why so much difference? What are some communities doing differently than others?
It is pretty unfortunate that we have gotten to the point where you can’t actually believe anything said by either side.
// The numbers are down.
// Why are they less able to handle COVID now?
// They all seem so thrilled with the vaccines, but their situation seems somehow more dire than ever?
// It makes no sense.
Indeed. I don’t think it is supposed to.
Well, I didn’t fuss when the kids got their shots. I’m not anti-vax at all. I would never tell them not to take it just in case I’m wrong. They all work in higher population cities. I take the ones I feel is necessary. When you live in a rural area like this and never hear about deaths, it’s hard to take it as seriously as somebody that lives where the area is hard hit but we do take it seriously. We use every precaution we know about except for the shot right now. If my friends and neighbors started dying around me or becoming disabled I’d beat the door down to get mine.
At this point though we both prefer to wait for a more traditional shot similar to what we get for the flu. There is just something I don’t really trust about these out now. I hope I’m wrong and everybody taking them turns out OK in the future.
That’s what I was wondering.🤔
I understand that! We have a few here but until they see more death and illness than we have had they won’t get it. With my asthma I always get my flu shot since 2008. I had it so bad in 2008 that I thought I would die. When I got up with it that morning my fever was so high I was incoherent. My husband physically carried me to the truck and took me to the doctor. I had a fever of 106. I have taken my flu shot since.
I will get a COVID vaccine when one comes out that doesn’t scare me more than COVID. :-) I trust my doctor and she didn’t recommend that I get it. When she says one is safe I will trust her.
I wish you all the best.
All the cases caused by the vaccinated spreading it to the unvaccinated
Thank you! You too.
Where am I getting this information? I live here and know most of them. Been to a few funerals. Did your neighbor die? The the gal you sat next to in church die? Did the lady at your library die? Did your local grocery store owner die, ditto the hardware store owner? Did your local tow truck driver’s wife die? Did you uncle die? Did your cousin die? Did your neighbor from the next street over mother die? Did the husband of the lady who walks past your house almost every day and wave at each other die? Did your local karaoke DJ die? I can say yes to all of the above.
And none of them were in nursing homes!
