“You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant.” ― Harlan Ellison

The morgue at Johnson City Medical Center is now full due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. A Ballad Health spokesperson said the hospital will now start using a refrigerated mobile morgue outside the hospital to hold the bodies. It can hold about 48 to 60 bodies. In the Knoxville/East Tennessee region, Regional Hospital ICUs are nearly full with COVID-19 patients as the number of concurrent hospitalizations continue to rise to new highs. As of Thursday, Knox County alone had seen 181 COVID-19 deaths and reported 135 people hospitalized with the virus. (WBIR/Staff 10 NBC News) Chief Administrative Officer Eric Deaton also reported that 17% of patients who are hospitalized at Ballad hospitals with COVID-19 are dying.(WJHL.Com/Tenn)

 

Ballad Health CEO Alan Levine also reported that a majority of citizens within the catchment area (in human geography, a catchment area is the area from which a city, service or institution attracts a population that uses its services,) still think that COVID is a hoax, have Tweeted and and commented publicly that the morgue is a scam, the death rate are made up statistics, and that the hospital is a part of a conspiracy against Trump and his administration. 

 

“When do we let those who willfully wish away science, medicine, fact and reality, just wilt and eventually die as they hang from their own humankind stalk of sheer ignorance, arrogance, starved for water, but too biased or bigoted, baseless, and banal to drink from the well of knowledge?” “When do the sane, finally give permission for the insane, to eat their own, and rot in their own waste?”---Gerry Buncher. And oh, by the way, provide all of these fools with an ID card with the letters SAS on it (stupid as shit), and when they finally are suffering from the ravages of COVID, have any hospital or First Responder say, to the back of the line!
