You’re not understanding the reality of how the current system works. You’re arguing from a place of fantasy.
In an ideal world, this wouldn’t even be a problem. Healthcare would be free, and hospitals would be over staffed with low patient ratios and plenty of beds.
Don’t complain to me about reality.
So you are saying your state was perfectly capable of handling its own covid patients? I wasnt aware of any state that wasnt pushed to capacity, but feel free to correct me.
Eastern Washington state borders Idaho. Idaho consistently fought Masking and quarantine. Many people from Idaho would become infected with Covid and rely on a state that did participate in masking and quarantine to help them when their own government refused to provide adequate services and policies. Washington state was already dealing with its own people, and had a hard enough time providing support without a bunch of Idahoans flooding in when they found out the hard way.
While I empathize with the individual, I feel there should have been Covid tests at the border.
You’re starting to sound like a Covid denier who doesn’t understand that while we are “united” under one federal government, each state has vastly different ideas of sanity.
You are starting to sound like someone who says Washingtons citizens lives are worth more than Idahos. You believe this because people in Idaho did not seem to care about their lives as much as people in your state. This is shown in the way Idaho handled mitigating covid.
Is any of that wrong?
I don’t disagree with the facts, just who’s to blame for it. But if you want to blame a bunch of sick and dead folk from a neighboring state, I can’t stop you.
