Health workers at odds
http://www.clarionledger.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20060627/NEWS/606270385
After the storm, the Health Department was given access to the federal Strategic National Stockpile of pharmaceuticals, but Delahousey said he could not find out what was available. Instead he was told to submit a list of needs, but those requests just went into a "black hole," he said.
"I would never hear back whether I would get it," he said. "I just couldn't find out what they had."
In addition, much of the millions of dollars of donated medical supplies that poured into the Coast was misdirected.
"They would stop at some checkpoint and would be directed to volunteer clinics, and we didn't know where they were," Delahousey said.
Complete ineptitude on all fronts ... and the same asshats in charge!
Everyone for himself in 2006!
