In west central Missouri, one person’s story.

I just received word from a friend that their elderly parent fell and broke a leg. This injury will require surgery and a hospital stay. Their local small town hospital has no available beds. Due to COVID-19 cases. This in a county with a very low vaccination rate and active anti-mask agitators.

Their injured parent was transferred to a suburban hospital. That hospital has no available beds. Their parent is in that hospital’s emergency department until a bed becomes available. The friend described a scene with patients in beds in the hallways.

What does anyone think will happen to a patient in the case of a heart attack, or a stroke, or injuries due to a car accident?

If you’re anti-vaccine and/or anti-mask you own this. It’s your world. And you’re a dumbass sociopath.

If you haven’t already done so, get vaccinated.

Wear a damn mask.
