Mississippi is experiencing the worst week so far.
Some are not concerned but I know 6 that are hospitalized right now.

John, I still feel you made the right decision.

A friend of mine had 3 strokes last week ....Two on one side and one on the other....went to ER in Tupelo....after 2 hrs they told him they had no beds available and MS hospitals all full....sent him to Tuscaloosa, AL.....thats where he found out what was wrong with him. Situation is a lot worse I think than what's on the news.

I honestly don't think we had a choice. I can name 20 folks that are battling this crap right now, half of them in the hospital and like G said, having to go way off to get in a hospital.

Sad thing is, full doesn’t really mean full. There are empty beds “reserved” just in case they are needed for COVID patients. A friend had his surgery canceled because the two days he would need to spend in the hospital would put them above 75%.
