User ID: 78194907 United States 03/13/2020 01:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I just received a call from the VA this evening. The person on the other end wanted to know how I was feeling. Asking if I had any cold, coughs or fever now or recently. They also wanted to know too if I had traveled anywhere outside the USA or was in contact with anyone I knew had the Coronavirus. Quoting: My Fear Besides my daughter being sick with a cold and me with the seasonal allergy sniffles and an annoying cough at night, I would said everything was very normal. No fever and nothing out of the ordinary. They thanked me for my service and reminded me to contact the VA if there were any changes. Weird. Do you think they are going to call each and every veteran? I feel like the CV is blown way out of proportion, but probably a better way to say we are broke and TPTB wants to reset the financial system. So here is the smoke in mirrors. I think that the powers that be are very very afraid of the system collapsing. Think about it like war. You're on the battlefield. You have two clear shots one is a definite kill and the other wounds the bad guy. Which option would you pick? Me personally I'd wound the fucker, hes buddies have to treat him and you got 2 to 3 people off of the batttlefield. Come on and take a free ride. |

You said state entities, there are multiple states included in some regions and there are single states that include multiple regions depending on geographics and population density.

The VA gets worst of the worst dr's and staff from my experience, but that was at least 15 years ago things could have changed since then. Come on and take a free ride. |
