Tornado Alley (PROG)

[zab]

That last year of trump's term in office was probably the worse for America. The American economy went through a transformation, so many restaurants just closed, and they never came back. There were buffet style restaurants here in Chattanooga, in the south you find them like you find diners in New York and New Jersey.

No one went to a buffet style restaurant when covid was raging, even southerners knew that was really stupid. I tried to point out that when I had my hernia operation it had to be postponed because there was no room in the three area hospitals. Even my doctor was called away to serve in a hospital, only lifesaving operations were being performed.

I had to wait almost 6 extra weeks for my hernia operation, and even then, it was done because my condition was worsening, and I was squeezed in because my doctor found a way to get it done. I will always thank him for that operation, but then he was a part of the team of doctors here in Chattanooga that have done many of my other operations.

In Chattanooga we had two places where you could get tested, down by the river, and near the Volkswagen plant. The Volkswagen plant was extra because Volkswagen was trying to keep some kind of production going. There were hardly any cars being produced during the covid pandemic, supply lines had cut down on manufacturers getting parts, especially those chips.
