    Looks like this thread is only 39 replies shy of surpassing the fiber-enhanced Melo thread.

    Long live the new king.

    When we eventually go back and merge all the coronavirus threads with this one we will easily surpass the virus known as Melo.

    That means that you're not sure whether it's about the number of cases or not. You could have saved some debate if you had said that in the first place.

    Nurses file lawsuit against Athens hospital for falsifying COVID-19 test results

    Four nurses filed a lawsuit against Landmark Hospital in Athens alleging that the hospital is falsifying COVID-19 test results.

    The suit, filed by four anonymous nurses in Gwinnett County Superior Court on Wednesday, asks for court intervention to stop Landmark from receiving new patients or transferring any patients to other hospitals.

    “Landmark fabricated negative results so as to continue to be able to discharge patients to make space for new admissions and avoid the negative publicity and oversight that would result if the positive COVID-19 results were disclosed,” the lawsuit says.


    Two nurses — one who used to work at Landmark and one who currently works there — spoke to 11Alive anonymously. They said Landmark purposefully sent throat swab tests to the lab at Piedmont Athens Regional Medical Center that only analyzes nasal swab tests, knowing that they would result in a negative test.

    The nurses also said Landmark intentionally retested patients who tested positive in order to get a negative result.

    “When they had someone who would turn out positive, they would re-do the test so that it would come back negative and they would say that it was a false positive,” one nurse told 11Alive.


    A nurse told 11Alive that they were fired for performing a test that came back positive because they didn’t have a doctor’s order for the test.

    The lawsuit alleges that Landmark did not test any patients who had previously tested positive for COVID-19 until June 4. It also says a patient tested positive for the disease a day after being discharged from Landmark.
