where does it say there is a $5K bonus for each death labeled C19? There is a tranche of money that would go to 'high impact' hospitals that have 100+ covid admissions but most of the money requirements look like a hospital just had to treat patients in 2018/2019 . The distribution was calculated on revenues during that time frame. Granted i just zoomed through most of it, but maybe it missed the $5K per death (or case; not sure what you were referring to). Here is an example for the biggest portion of the General Fund Initial $30 Billion Payment Allocation per Provider = (2019 Medicare Fee-For-Service Payments / $453 Billion**) x $30 Billion **This is the total sum of Medicare Fee-For-Service Payments in 2019 Additional $20 Billion Payment Allocation per Provider = ((Most Recent Tax Year Annual Gross Receipts x $50 Billion) / $2.5 Trillion) – Initial General Distribution Payment to Provider There is no mention of C19 as even being a factor. The hospitals get $ solely based on revenue from Medicare from 2019. Below is the only # of Covid cases that would affect a distribution i could find. $10 Billion to 395 High-Impact Hospitals Payment Allocation per Hospital = Number of COVID-19 Admissions* x $76,975 *Hospitals must have 100 or more COVID-19 admissions. So to get some of that $10B, hospitals would have to show or indicate a positive C19 admission. But nothing is tied to deaths as netting more money. Sure i guess they could go back and test a gsw victim that died in the ER for C19 and then fudge the admission form to list C19 if they wanted to up the total number. There is a benefit paid to nursing home that are below some standard for C19 infections and C19 deaths. so there would be an incentive to lie about and lower how many C19 deaths a nursing home had- Is Deshaun Watson Done in Houston?

you trying to tell me Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?!?- God. We have a problem, or do we?
as a family, we used to go to a church that we really liked. they did not preach hate, welcomed lgbtq community and were pretty much the polar opposite of the Jefress led downtown Baptist church in Dallas. we are still members, still donate a decent chunk of change to them every year, but we just don't go anymore. For me it's a complete lack of faith and really stems from shit i cannot wrap my head around. - Can God be active in our lives. I'm talking about direct divine intervention. God nudging a semi truck to the left to avoid an oncoming car. More to the point, God choosing to intervene. I cannot reconcile God choosing NOT to intervene when children are raped. Either there are no miracles, no divine intervention, no 'God has planned out your entire life' and we are left to the laws of probability and human misery to deal with shit on our own OR the alternative is frankly sickening in that God helps some people in some situations but allows such horror to be visited on the innocent. Yes, i get that we were kicked out the Garden and now bad shit happens because man sucks, but doesn't the concept of 'sometimes' miracles seem horrifying? So if there is no divine intervention we are left with God as the perfect clockmaker. Set the world in motion and then take a step back and let things play out. OK i guess we should be grateful and pay homage for being created, but the Bible directly contradicts that theory with tale after tale of God's vengeance, mercy, love and wrath. So back to square 1.- The Falcon and the Winter Soldier on Disney+

Nice work! doing keto and just seeing the results first hand will change your outlook on food going forward whether you stay on keto or not. i did it for ~7 months to get down to actually below my target weight, then eased off keto and started adding things back in that I missed eating. But it sticks in your mind that eating stuff like hamburger buns, pasta, pastries, candy etc... 2x a day was the cause of all the weight gain to begin with. makes it easier to avoid and easier to look for alternatives and substitutes for those things. or just eat them way less often. i'm still hovering just under 220 (6'7'') about 1.5 years off keto; about 10lbs above my lowest weight.- 82 Los Angeles Lifeguards made over $200K in 2019

your ears are full of shit if that is what you are hearing from my post. there is no CR in my post at all, why invoke political BS here? abbott was too much of a pussy to handle the negative feels he got from the mah freedom crowd so he dumped that shit onto the shoulders of the Texas businesses. What a fucking hero he is. smh. but at least we are not talking about how he and his appointees fucked up the power grid much anymore or the push to take away employees rights to sue over C19 protocols their employer takes (or doesn't take). All i said was that in Dallas, not much seems to have changed despite the order. In other parts of Texas I am sure it's different. I am curious if any large retailers are saying no mask needed, come on in. There are a few places in Dallas like Eatily (sp?) that don't require masks. Some hate it, some like it. it's a restaurant so in-room dining has little to do with wearing a mask anyway. eat inside or don't, who GAF?- COVID-19 2nd wave - Texas only - Stats and such
What major businesses have waived mask mandates? my grocery store, the pool store, the liquor store, home depot etc.. are still requiring masks as i hit up all of those this weekend in Dallas. Yes, we are 'open' but anecdotally, not much has changed for me. kids are still required to wear one at school and they have not bitched about it one time this year despite doing this since Sept. the whole 'did masks do anything?' debate is just going to get further muddied in the public mind. Oh well, worry about that later. shit is looking up and and it's awesome to see the vax rolling in. not going to debbie downer this shit.- 82 Los Angeles Lifeguards made over $200K in 2019

they got the 80 - 84 and then forgot to score for about 7 minutes in the fourth. The refs were all kinds of pissy with them to start the 4th. Surprised Rick did not take an early exit. Bright side, no techs for Luka- WCGW: lets do a 180° turn in the Suez Canal
