Nevada: Las Vegas Moves Homeless to Parking Lot as Shelter Resident Tests Positive for Coronavirus

Breitbart: Officials in Las Vegas and Clark County, Nevada moved hundreds of homeless people to an open-air parking lot this weekend after an individual inside a shelter tested positive for coronavirus, posing a risk to other residents.

According to a video published by the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the man had been a resident at a shelter run by Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada. The other residents were moved to a parking lot near the defunct Cashman Center.

The UK Daily Mail noted that roughly 500 residents were relocated to the parking lot, some sleeping on a carpet that had been rolled out on the asphalt, and others sleeping on the asphalt itself, in spaces marked on a grid.

Medical students and professors from Touro University Nevada volunteers to screen homeless people as they entered the parking lot, according to the Review-Journal. Mobile showers were made available to the residents.

The Daily Mail added: “The fully open-air facility, which is open to the homeless from 6pm to 8am, is anticipated to remain until at least April 3 or however long it takes for the Catholic Charities shelter to re-open.” read more

  1. The people who RUN Las Vegas know what to do with the ‘homeless’ while the people ‘elected’ by those people must pretend not to know. The way is smooth, until it is not, but with thought, planning and care that path will be made smooth again.

  2. In the United States as a whole, how many deaths have happened among the homeless so far?

    I would expect them to be among the most vulnerable.

    The statistic has to be somewhere but I can’t find it, anyone know?

  3. They still call them ‘homeless’? The libtards running my city refer to vagrants as ‘our neighbors experiencing homelessness’, even though a recent census like counting of vagrants revealed that 75% of them came from places other than our city. Libtards.
