"LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — As of 8:40 a.m. on Sunday, the Arkansas Department of Health confirmed 421 COVID-19 cases throughout the state.

Gov. Hutchinson said there will be additional pay to support nurses in rural Arkansas cities. Nurses will receive $1,000 per month and $2,000 per month for nurses that care for COVID-19 patients."

Are they figuring out who really makes the country run? 😳

1. Hazard pay.

My neighbor is an EMT with 4 kids. He’s refusing to drive his ambulance right now.

2. Yup!

But #s are exploding in Arkansas - Seems they are pleading for help.

I'm watching the situation to see if comrade donny dimwit steps up to help this red state. After all, Walhell is headquartered there...

3. I wouldn't either, personally

Not without protective gear. His 1st job is to look out for his kids!

6. Conflicted

He’s an Iraq War vet medic. He could help a lot of people. But I don’t know that I’d do different if I had his skills.

7. I'd be conflicted too

But must care for kids first.

As I say about other species: If you domesticate them, you must care for them to the best of your ability - always & 1st.

Same with kids - you make them, then put them 1st!

4. Betting that Ass of Gawd display has a hell of a lot to do with it.

5. Yup

I'll bet it does!
