Are you from DU? Typically conservatives are not so arrogant and condescending.
I hate this Twatter trash.
Here is paragraph 8 verbatim:
“Discretion to utilize National Guard and State Guard members in connection with certain health care and m rgency services operations.
This Paragraph 8 is issued for the limited purpose of authorizing personnel recognized under Tennessee Code Annotated, Sections 58-1-203, 58-1-204, and 58-1-402 (collectively, “Personnel”), to serve in certain health care and emergency services roles to reduce system capacity strain resulting from COVID-19. Namely, Personnel may:
(1) perform authorized diagnostic testing for COVID-19 in health care settings, including but not to limited to hospitals, emergency departments, and alternate care sites (collectively, “Facilities”);
(2) perform authorized nursing and other functions in Facilities; and
(3) operate public or privately owned, permitted ambulance service vehicles with a licensed service.
Accordingly, the following provisions are hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8: Tennessee Code Annotated, Titles 63 and Title 68, and related rules, with respect to licensure, continuing education, and other requirements for Personnel or Facilities utilizing Personnel; Title 68, Chapter 140, Part 3, with respect to Personnel and licensed ambulance services utilizing Personnel; and any other state or local law, order, rule, or regulation that would limit the application of this Paragraph 8 is hereby suspended to the extent necessary to facilitate this Paragraph 8. This Paragraph 8 is subject to the following conditions:
a. No Personnel shall operate under this Paragraph 8 unless designated by the Adjutant General upon request or order of the Governor;
b. Personnel operating pursuant to this Paragraph 8 shall have the appropriate training or skills in the area(s) pertaining to their designations;
c. The Adjutant General and Commissioner of Health, or their designees, shall determine the Facilities to which Personnel are assigned, based on need and other reasonable factors, in their sole discretion;
d. Any Facility to which Personnel are assigned must submit, in writing to the Commissioner of Health, the responsibilities and tasks that Personnel will be undertaking while operating pursuant to this Paragraph 8;
e. A list of Personnel designated to operate under this Paragraph 8 and the Facility or setting in which such Personnel will be operating shall be updated from time to time as necessary;
f. Any authority, duties, or scope of practice suspensions extended to Personnel pursuant to this Paragraph 8 shall terminate and be of no further force and effect upon the expiration or termination of Paragraph 8 or other order o f the Governor to that effect; and
g. This Paragraph 8 shall not affect the requirements and provisions of the suspended statutory and rule provisions with respect to any other person or facility.”

That’s it. No camps. No forced vaccines. Just allowing NG to do three things: Covid diagnostics, nursing and driving ambulances.
Read the order, not the headline.
‘Regulatory Flexibilities’.
Got that?
You are the first one in the thread to actually read. The majority just latched onto the Twatter clickbait headline and let their imagination fill in the rest.
This just lets NG drive ambulances, perform nursing and perform testing at hospitals.
THATs IT.
If that’s the case, that government abides by its own laws/rules, why aren’t the immigration laws being enforced?
Got that?
This reference has this connotation: it is “for the emergency involuntary commitment of a person with a mental illness or serious emotional disturbance based upon a telephone assessment of such person by a mandatory pre-screening agent designated pursuant to Tennessee Code Annotated, Sections 33-6-104 and 33-6-427, if the following conditions are met.” It is included to help deal with people who are mentally ill, and it limits itself to existing definitions of mental illness already recognized by Tennessee Code Annotated. It floors me to think that people could believe that a more sinister and underhanded motive for this is intended, much less doable.
“why aren’t the immigration laws being enforced?”
LOL! Half of my town is Mexican now and I don’t mean native born.
Immigration has NOTHING to do with this. Running to an irrelevant side issue is called a “red herring.”
Here are the facts. You got reeled in by Twatter trash, didn’t read the order and now are angry that someone actually read it and pointed out what it actually says.
Do you have a problem with State national guard medical personnel supplementing medical personnel in a state by providing nursing, driving ambulances and performing testing?
Qtardism doesn’t involve common sense or reading.
Maybe some people here think the job of driving ambulances should be turned over to funeral homes as it was in days gone by.
I save being arrogant and condescending for when it is truly appropriate. So it is rarely called upon.
In many of such threads you will have to get used to being floored.
Well, to be fair, I have a rather well-stocked bunker already.
But this seems like thin gruel in terms of activating contingency planning against the “the state is rounding people up” threat.
It’s a real threat, but frankly, at best, the current moves are a red herring to distract from the steps that are actually being taken in the open, which are primarily economically coercive in nature. I find it distressing that the economic moves are being taken less seriously at the moment.
The vaccination was supposed to work. There shouldn’t have been a surge
The communists are on the march...
The chicom sneak attack has brought many of the fellow travelers out of the woodwork...
This draconian measure by Bill Lee is a classic example...
It would be interesting to know how much Soros paid him for this...
It is almost exclusively “regular” TB, which is different from DR, drug resistant; VDR, very drug resistant; XDR, extremely drug resistant; and CDR, completely drug resistant.
Regular TB, when treated, has low mortality. There have only been two outbreaks of CDR, both in India, and both with 100% mortality.
TB is a slow moving disease, and can take months for symptoms to develop. Likewise, it takes months, even more than a year, to treat it.
I tend to agree about the economic moves. One big one. Eviction moratorium. Owners have to surrender their property because they can no longer meet mortgage and other obligations. To avoid foreclosure they place the house or on the market. That is snatched up by investors who turn it into a rental unit at a much higher rate. That rate must be subsidized if it is going to meet the demand by the government that a certain percentage of available units qualify as affordable housing. Guess who usually is eligible for such housing? In the long run or hey even the short term you have nice neighborhoods turning into the projects.
The owner of this housing has tax advantages for the investors so pretty soon it will be even harder for people to find and qualify for buying their first home. Remember now you finally have a chance to own nothing and be happy. The last was sarcasm.
“‘Regulatory Flexibilities’.
Got that?”
Oh, I was making a comment about the language he used.
Anyone know what constitutes an alternate care site?
