Packing Poor Sick Seniors Into Cars For Medical Appointments

[glenninindy]

What would you Christians do if you or a beloved friend or family member, who had no transportation to go to medical appointments, or cannot ride buses that go there, or afford taxi cabs, do if you had to ride in medicaid cars, with other sick people, who are packed in with you, coughing and talking? You are only trying to go to your doctor appointments or take needed tests and these private contractors, hired by medicaid, pack you into their cars, trying to get as many as possible in, not caring about the risk for your life during this awful pandemic. Meanwhile, the drivers are enclosed in plastic sheeting around them to protect themselves. What would you do to protect your own or their lives? What can you do? Complain? File a lawsuit? Please advise.

First hing I'd do and probably you have, also is pray and sometimes that is all we can do, but it is not to say that it isn't much. Is may be the only thing we can do.but SGod is faithful to a faithful prayer.Apparently, you have no family or close friends nearby who can help. This where a church family really can help. Many will get a shut-in to and from services and also volunteers provide rides to appts, shopping, errands and such. Where do you live? State, to start? Oh, I see, NW, IN. My brother was born in that area. Were you talking about Dial-A-Ride in your complaining of the conditions? I know someone who volunteers for that. He gives rides to people like you for things like we are discussing. If I lived nearby I would volunteer to give you a ride, but I am half way up the w Coast of Mi.I will pray for your needs, Glen.

What about all the others who do not pray? Have a Church? Young and old? What about them? Wouldn't you tell someone to help you to fix this overcrowding of sick people in their cars during this contagious pandemic? Anybody else here knows someone who knows how to call for help? Any lawyers here? Anyone know one? Why should company's get away with putting already sick people's lives in danger this way?

Dear brother,
I understand that your condition frustrates you. Being angry only leads to evil. It is just better to pray that the blood of the Lamb of
God cover you.

As we have heard:
who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. -1 Peter 1:5

Just trust that God’s power will guard you and your loved ones.

Just take a precautionary approach to wear mask and glove and overcoat.

I woud ask where was their Church, meaning the people who went to the same building every Sunday. When I attended a Church which split in the good way, planting a second church, I would have been confident that such transportation would heve been provided under similar circumstances in either of the two churches.
