I have had to transfer hospitals while on a ventilator to survive. Through the years I have had to pay out of pocket for many prescriptions and treatments to live a relatively 'normal' life with a livelong chronic condition. Not everyone has been blessed with health and medical insurance.

It's not the states responsibility to bail out restaurants, bars, hospitals, etc.. When I get sick I prefer Hooters to hospitals. Cheaper, better, and a nicer view.

The governor signed a bill that limits local health departments' powers to enact health orders, which many say contributes to more virus spread and more hospitalizations.

My father in law is waiting for a bed that he needs to get to be treated for a failing heart related to his copd. The problem is there are no beds at the only two places that can perform his procedure because anti vackers and anti mask wearers are filling up the beds dying of covid.

We need that 30 million to help pay those who are working extra for COVID shifts...not companies who are over charging hospitals for workers.

A group of nurses at Houston Methodist Hospital made headlines this week when they staged a walkout over the hospital's requirement that they be vaccinated against the coronavirus. The workers say they don't want to be research subjects for a vaccine that's not been fully approved. Show Less

Healthcare workers should know that the vaccines are safe and, unless they have other health issues, should help the country get to levels where everyone is safe.

Hospitals that are requiring their employees to get the vaccine say it's about patient care and helping to bring an end to the pandemic that began last spring.

Why are there no Hazardous Material Bins for the dangerous waste and virus germs, trapped in the masks and gloves of all these infected people? Is it because it is liberal dempanic?

My body MY choice. My constitutional right to say NO. It's NOT a vaccine!! It's gene therapy and gas NOT been FDA approved. NO!

Cindy Angle

I agree with the nurses. They should have a choice.

Jim Haaf

Look up Dr Peter MCCullogh that is all you need to know

Missy Marlett

It is their right not to get vaccinated. No one should ever make you get the shot. IT's a violation of your rights and I am surprised there aren't more lawsuits filed.
