QUESTION OF THE DAY: Is the state doing enough to help hospitals?
Gov. Mike Parson announced $30 million this week to help hospitals with critical staffing shortages as coronavirus patients continue to strain the state's health care system.
The money will go to pay for temporary medical staffing help and was praised by the Missouri Hospital Association. However, critics say the state could be doing more, and the governor signed a bill that limits local health departments' powers to enact orders. Critics say such moves lead to more hospitalizations.
