Two Vehicles Wreck in Canals on Allen Road this Week
July 22 on Allen Road

Author: Ginny Bragg

Churchill County Sheriff’s deputies, along with EMTs, responded to an accident on Allen Road between St. Clair and Bass Roads at around 6:30 Sunday evening, July 18.

The pickup truck, the only vehicle involved in the wreck, was somehow thrown into the canal which runs on the east side of Allen Road and adjacent a cement irrigation ditch that feeds into to an alfalfa field. The truck was situated between the two ditches facing into the canal.

An ambulance was on scene and the truck had to be towed from the canal embankment.

 

On Thursday, July 22 the Sherriff’s office responded to a single-vehicle accident on Allen Road involving a single female passenger.

According to witness Adam Vice, the woman was going south on Allen Road and pulled to the side of the road by Fallon Livestock Processing before turning left trying to make a u-turn. Upon making the turn, she proceeded to stop in the middle of the road, then travel north and went to directly into the ditch on the east side of Allen. Vice stopped his car and went to check on the driver to make sure she was okay. He stated they told him that she had received her COVID-19  vaccine the day before and that she felt dizzy before blacking out.

The driver was taken to the hospital for evaluation. The Churchill County Sherriff’s are investigating.

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
