No one is bitching about Mexicans tard. We complain about not having a border...

Would you complain about someone randomly coming into your home?

There’s several empty hospital buildings in Greater New Orleans - not even counting the old Big Charity.

Have you ever seen the building codes required for a hospital? Unless you mean more akin to a military field hospital.


This. I'm not sure I would ever want to be treated in a Chinese "hospital".

I was thinking more of a bunch of refitted portable buildings or FEMA trailers to house patients. If they are doing that already then pardon my ignorance.

Government regulators slow everything down....


Read an interesting opinion piece the other day about how Corona has exposed how full of shite our government is about stupid regulations. TSA...it's now safe to bring bottles of hand sanitizer larger than 3.4oz. Interest on government backed student loans? Well, turns out they can kill that interest at the drop of a hat. Minor offenses leading to jail? Nah, apparently now it's cool to appropriately keep people out of jail for minor offenses. Police helping enforce civil evictions? Suspended now so why did we need them before. The list goes on and on.

Point being, the bureaucracy, red tape, and stupid regulations are completely arbitrary and are easily suspended when shite hits the fan. If they want to put up temporary hospitals, it could start tomorrow with no red tape.

Why can't people cook bats and dogs like China did to cause this?
You're right, why don't they eat normal animals like raccoons and nutria?

Some hospitals are doing this. Built air conditioned tents outside ER for triage.

Mawmaw was a little girl during the Spanish Flu of 1918. She said once a day a truck would drive through the neighborhood and anyone that was sick got placed on the truck and taken to a gym setup with beds as a medical ward.

If you recovered they put you back on a truck and sent back home.

You went alone. No family and no visitors. She was one of the lucky that got to ride the truck home.

In NYC, they've been converting city buildings into makeshift hospitals for over a week by now.

Those weren’t hospitals. They were morgues.

John bel Edwards is pushing this. There are a discussions to quickly reopen shuttered medical facilities around the state. The biggest would be the old VA hospital in New Orleans. He directly asked Trump for the funds to be released on that conference call today.

And you know for sure they built all those hospitals? I mean it was reported so by the Chinese Media, so it must be true right?
