Michigan Dem Lawmaker Sounds Off on Whitmer's Nursing Home Order
Townhall ^ | 5/12/20 | Cortney O'Brien

There's been a lot to criticize when it comes to Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's coronavirus response. Her draconian and arbitrary stay-at-home restrictions, for one, have drawn ire from several lawmakers and law enforcement officials. She banned the purchase of gardening tools, for goodness' sake.

But that's not all. Whitmer's unpopular nursing home policy that places COVID-positive seniors among healthy seniors, is just as curious. The COVID-positive individuals were brought to “regional hubs,” nursing homes where the state says there has to be separation of the COVID-19 positive and negative patients, after being discharged from the hospital.

Democrat state representative Leslie Love recently condemned the measure.

“To return seniors into an environment, seniors with the virus still recovering from the virus, into an environment with, well, seniors, just didn’t seem - it’s not a good idea,” Love said.

Nailed it...democrats (not capitalized on purpose) are bloodthirsty spawn of hell. Some republicans aren't much better.

Potus gave NY a ship that could have been used for seniors, in MI if she’d have asked, he would have found/constructed her a Temp facility in a heartbeat. Granted we didn’t know what we didn’t know, but this was a grave error, their is no way to spin it, thses Gov’s dropped the ball period.

The ‘Rats want to eliminate the Social Security problem they created by offing as many seniors as possible, particularly those who have just reached age 65, eliminating the need to pay them the pension benefits they earned.

Back in March she was on local radio stating she was speaking with Cuomo and Newsome every day on the phone. They were sharing ideas and making suggestions for her to follow. At the time I thought how clueless our Governor is, no wonder she has zero leadership skills. Now look where we are.

Does this not seem like an orchestrated plan with the governors of rat states? There is a pattern here that needs to be investigated. The genocide of the elderly.

Bet this is about Medicaid costs.

Someone really should do a study of elderly WuFlu patient outcomes that looks at insurance coverage.

Bring in illegals who will work for peanuts and vote democrat, and kill off elderly Americans on SS and MC who tend to vote GOP. The new Democrat platform.

From Gov Cuomo’s order requiring nursing homes (NH) to accept coronavirus patients:

“No resident shall be denied re-admission or admission to the NH solely based on a confirmed or suspected diagnosis of COVID-19.”

Gov Cuomo directed that nursing homes accept confirmed coronavirus patients discharged from hospitals after their condition had been “stabilized.”
