Oh, you know this was the hotel's chance to get a complete remodel for free
For sure. And it's not like they had much if any business before they decided to house these people.

frick it, might as well just drop off a crate of fentanyl and needles and let them be strung out until this is over.
No narcan administered though
Well, that option did cross my mind

Could you imagine that hotel if all those people were simultaneously going through horrible withdrawals? frick that.
That's on the city for thinking it's a good idea to house a few hundred addicts and mentally ill in a hotel for an extended drug and alcohol fueled vacation. We saw how well that worked in New Orleans

I understand that, I'm just saying that as soon as the private funds dry up, they will all be right back on the streets and hospitals exactly where they started. It's a shitty short term solution for a large problem. What else are you going to do though I guess
I've got some news for you. These people will never get clean in SF. The city incentivizes their junkie lifestyles.

Yeah, what happened with that? I remember hearing they were going to do it but never heard anything after that.

The city ended up moving them to different hotels in the east after realizing that zero health guidelines were being followed or enforced. the homeless were coming and going as they pleased. They were also responding to overdoses daily. They also didn't have anyone at the hotel with any sort of training on how to handle a situation like that which is the least surprising finding of the experiment.

Yep, I've got a fair amount of knowledge on addiction and everything they do in SF should be done the opposite way. So much fricking money wasted on pointless shite

Are they allowed to leave their rooms to go shite on the streets? I mean because disrupting their routines may not be healthy at this time.

Not in San Francisco they aren’t.

I'm fine with it
What about the city leased hotels rooms they using?
