One Doctor to the Unvaxxed Covidiots: "Hit the Bricks."

An Alabama doctor is taking a bold stance in the efforts to get more people vaccinated against COVID-19.

Dr. Jason Valentine, a physician at Mobile’s Diagnostic and Medical Clinic Infirmary Health, posted a photo on his Facebook page showing him posed next to a sign that says “effective Oct. 1, 2021, Dr. Valentine will no longer see patients that are not vaccinated against COVID-19.”

The story quotes the letter that the doctor sent to his patients.

If you need an ICU bed in Alabama because you were, say, in a bad car crash, well, you are just shit out of luck:

As of Tuesday, Alabama was out of intensive care unit beds, but the number of inpatients needing ICU treatment continues to increase.

“We’ve never been here before. We are in truly now in uncharted territory in terms of our ICU bed capacity,” said Alabama Hospital Association President Dr. Don Williamson.

He says ICU capacity levels have been reached across the state with at least 11 additional patients now in need of ICU treatment. Some are being treated on gurneys in hallways or in emergency rooms, Williams stated.

“There were 1,568 patients today who need ICU beds, and there are only 1,557 designated ICU beds in the state today,” Williamson said. “In the Montgomery area, we have eight more patients who are getting ICU care than we have designated ICU beds here.”

Alabama is in this mess because Alabama is apparently near its capacity of idiots.

Thanks to this pandemic, the Deep South is doing a great job of reinforcing every stereotype that Southernors have complained that Yankees hold of them.

Heckuva job, all y'all.

Expat Alabamian here. The magical thinking of religion has addled their pates. They won't die because baby jebus has his eye on the sparrow and they know he watches them. Doesn't save their lives, mind you, just watches nonchalantly as they choke to death on their on bodily fluids. Because their god is a jelous god, a cruel and murderous god who loves Him some human suffering and death. Their God is a flat out mean son of a bitch. The churches must be taxed. Their death cult religion must die.

I'll add that one to this post, thanks.

FYI, I'm ceasing the daily memes after the last one in the queue posts.

I have a friend in Huntsville who had a brain aneurysm that required emergency surgery a few years back, and I can only imagine that she's livid with rage over this situation.
