Sanctuary State Madness – People Are Calling 911 If They Hear Their Neighbors Coughing Or Sneezing
Right Journalism ^ | 03.17.2020 | Natalie Dagenhardt

I miss the good old days when we could call 911 when we suspected neighbors of being communists.

Now things have changed our youth is turning to socialism and communism while people started to call the cops if their neighbor coughs or sneeze.

As the Desert Sun reported some Coachella Valley police departments say they’ve started fielding 911 reports from concerned callers convinced a neighbor’s overly loud sneeze or hacking cough is proof the person has the virus.

Palm Springs police estimate dispatchers had about five of these calls last week, Sgt. Mike Casavan said.

Cathedral City police Cmdr. Paul Herrera said dispatchers with his department, who also handle 911 calls from the neighboring city of Desert Hot Springs, fielded similar calls.

In many cases, the calls are forwarded to the fire department where paramedics are also dispatched to directly provide any needed medical attention before transporting the person to an area hospital.

Authorities say they can’t ignore such calls or discount them as paranoia, hypochondria or fakery. They must respond even when every other public entity adopts “social distancing” in order to reduce possible coronavirus transmission.

There have been 486 confirmed cases of coronavirus in the state of California, which has a population of nearly 40 million. Six people have died.

Liberals always tend to overreact.

Yes, follow commonsense practices for hygiene, take care of yourself. Seek medical help if necessary. Do NOT surrender to fear. Fear is our biggest enemy.

Remember the good old days when you used to cough to cover a fart, now it’s the other way around.

Please share this article wherever you can. It is the only way we can work around their censorship and ensure people receive news about issues that Democrats and the mainstream media suppress.

NEWPORT, Ore. (KMTR) — The Newport Oregon Police Department is notifying the public that they are not to call the emergency line simply because they ran out of toilet paper.

“911, what is your emergency?”

“My neighbor was coughing bad, then collapsed in his yard and looked just dead. But now he has gotten up, moaning and calling for a plumber.”

“A plumber?”

“Yes, over and over he keeps calling out ‘Drains!’”

Thanks.

The link you provided says is may cause irritation. I have used plain table salt for 12 years now and it apparently doesn’t bother me.

I had 3 surgeries in 2008, and they had scraped my sinus literally down to the bone to get rid of an ‘inverted papilloma’, which is essentially a ‘wart’ growing in your sinuses. First surgery was by my ENT here in town. he removed enough of it to allow me to breathe thru my nose again. It had grown so large that I could not get any air thru my nasal passages and had to breathe thru my mouth!

He then referred me to a surgeon at Shands Hospital docs in Gainesville Florida at the University of Florida, GO GATORS!, who took TWO surgeries to get the rest of it which had been embedded in the bone!

The papilloma had gone thru the bone wall that separated the two sinus cavities and it had to be removed before it got into my brain pan.

I now have ONE huge sinus cavity instead of two. My own voice changed to my hearing because of that. I lost my sense of smell because they had to remove the tissue that contains the sensors for smell. The surgeon said it was a 50/50 chance I would ever get it back, but I did about after 6 months or so. I could not smell a damn thing!

Eventually they grew back and it took some time to get accustomed to smelling stuff, because nothing smelled like it was supposed to, as I remembered it.

I threw away a full bottle of cologne because I thought it had gone ‘stale’, but when I bought a new bottle it smelled the exact same way!

Even BACON frying smelled ‘different’ for a while. It was like I had to learn smells all over again! Which is dangerous because we use gas for cooking, heating and water heater, so I had to ‘learn’ what the smell of a gas leak was all over again.

But now, after 12 years it’s all back to normal!..............................

I never want to hear a horror story like this ever again. I'm glad you recovered.

I was so devoid of the sense of smell I ate some WASABI (Japanese Horseradish) and it did not even faze me. Foods of all sorts had no taste to me.

All I had were the ‘basics’, salt, sweet, bitter, etc.................
