The South’s health care system is crumbling under Covid-19. Enter Tennessee.

The state is a poster child for how rural areas are suffering disproportionately amid the pandemic in the worst public health crisis in a century.

Yeah. Tennessee kind of holds a place of dishonor in looking after its citizens having repeatedly refused offered Medicaid expansion.

Tennessee refused numerous federal offers of medical aid https://www.oakridger.com/stor...ennessee/6564076001/

I can only conclude that the good people of Tennessee like it this way.

No, they don't. It's their governors who refuse the aid. If you take a look at the articleI posted it's clear.

Seems to me that if they didn’t like it they’d stop electing the same terrible people over and over.

(Glad to see you posting, Amanda. I’ve been wondering where you were.)
