Online Puppy Scams on the Rise

Dec 11, 2020 Dec 11, 2020 The COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically increased demand for pets as people seek adding a pet to the family to ease the loneliness and tension of prolonged time at home. Many feel that they now have more time to train a puppy. With this rising demand has come a spike in pet scams, in which an online search ends with a would-be pet owner paying hundreds of dollars or more to purchase a pet that ultimately doesn’t exist. Better Business Bureau (BBB) advises extreme caution when shopping for a pet online, especially in light of scammers’ evolving tactics.

With Large Illinois Hospitals Filled Up, Smaller Ones Must Treat More Critical Patients

Derik Holtmann / Belleville News-Democrat Editor’s note: This story was originally published in the Belleville News-Democrat, a news partner of St. Louis Public Radio. Washington County Hospital in Nashville normally transfers critically ill patients to larger hospitals in Centralia, Mount Vernon, St. Louis or the Metro East almost immediately after they arrive. But it recently took eight hours to find an Indiana hospital that could meet a patient’s needs with an open intensive-care-unit (ICU) bed and adequate staffing, according to President Brian Monsma. That’s because larger hospitals in Southwestern Illinois are struggling to meet demand due to a surge in coronavirus cases.
