New Zealand police arrest pair trying to enter Auckland with ‘large amount’ of KFC:
The men were arrested after allegedly trying to flee from police near the Auckland border. When their car was searched, police said they found a large quantity of KFC, as well as the cash and a number of empty ounce bags.
The arrest struck a chord with New Zealanders – especially Aucklanders, who have spent a month in a strict level four lockdown that does not allow restaurants to open or residents to order takeaway food.
[...] After the KFC arrest, a police spokesperson said “officers noticed a suspicious looking vehicle travelling on a gravel road, and upon seeing the police car, the vehicle did a U-turn and sped off trying to evade police.
[...] A breach of the Covid-19 Public Health Response Act can result in imprisonment for up to six months; or a fine of up to $4,000.
The men will appear in court for breaching the health order, and police said further charges were likely.

I dunno what they might specialize in. I know that burn victims anywhere around here are routinely airlifted to Children's in Little Rock, or to Shriner's in Shreveport. Heart patients are routinely transported (not necessarily airlifted) to St. Vincent in Hot Springs. Yeah, hospitals do kinda specialize, especially university hospitals. If you have all of the story concerning that heart patient, I'll be happy to listen. The article blames COVID patients, but it isn't clear that the blame is entirely justified.
Abortion is the number one killed of children in the United States.

Which means they're full of shit, a propaganda piece, unless they're talking about the refusal to get the vax. And specialized hospitals are irrelevant to the fact that there is plenty of money available to build adequate facilities wherever they are needed in short order. After two years of this, all shortages are caused by bullshit
