The topic of my article is about how the Kilgore emergency center had to be shut down due to a bat infestation.“Bats in Kilgore emergency center could pose serious health risks” is the title of my article. My article is from KLTV or here. Good Shepherd’s Kilgore emergency room was shut down Wednesday due to bats that got in building. Everyone in the ER had to evacuate and is now it is going to be shut down for two weeks. The problem occurred so fast that there wasn’t a place to locate. A wildlife specialist is going to come in and get rid of the bats. They are now ready to handle any more issues that occur. The bats do carry diseases and should be handled properly. I feel upset for the people who had to leave the ER due to the bats, because I understand if they were weak it couldn’t have been easy to get up a move around. This affects me because this is near me. I hope the wildlife expert gets the job done as soon as possible. The patients should not be exposed to such animals who can carry diseases. It’s good that they are out of there, but now we know to be more aware that problems like this can occur. I hope that they can find a way to cover the holes that bats were able to fit through to get in. This affects the world because there are bats most everywhere. Most everyone understands that are able to squeeze themselves into these small holes. But to be prepared for anything- especially hospitals need to be sure that every small opening needs to be covered. I understand that it isn’t easy but now we know how bad it can affect the patients in the hospital. I still hope all the bats will be gone before the set date, because the sooner the bats are out the sooner the patients can get in.
