Yep FEMA rolled in today. There is no water at our walmart and we are across the border in Ky. They are flooding in from Charleston and Huntington.
Walmart workers were checking in the back. It didn't affect where I live, but I have 4 or 5 galls set back anyway. I just went to watch the
scramble.
Also apparently over 70 hospital visits, and at least 5 people have been kept by the hospital. Patients showing extreme nausea and vomiting.
I imagine the numbers are actually much higher and not hospitals are included in that tally.. we are talking 10 counties (they said 5, then 9, but
water has been cut off to cabell making it 10 at least). Cabell is where my friends were drinking the water and saying it tasted like cough syrup and
that was when they were officially out of the affected area. lol.
I personally don't see why churches, police, and others can't hand out the water. Why is FEMA and that National Guard required?
Another thing.. there is no end in sight yet. They aren't sure how easy it will be to decontaminate the water system. They are saying levels are still
high. Also, if you have been to WV you know that there are people up in the mountains and in the middle of nowhere that wont get any relief. I mean
deliverance, hill people haha, still they are in trouble.
