The Negril Rumor Mill

[gregandkelly63]

We were standing in the parking lot of the Charela Inn when the injured party was loaded into the ambulance. We did report in another FB forum that the injured patient was on a back board and in a neck brace. We never speculated as to the injuries, just reported what we saw first hand. My wife and I are both medical professionals and as Beth Pointed out in the other forum, it is standard procedure to use a back board and neck brace with any kind of injury that could possibly involve back/neck injuries. If anyone assumed we were saying the injuries were worse than they were is making assumptions. I just reported what we observed first hand.

If you are "medical Professionals", why the need to invade this person privacy by posting on FB. It seems people now a days want to be the first to the gate on social media and report what they saw or what they heard, and when the rumor mill rears it's ugly head, want to step back and say, "not my fault". I don't get it.
