Latest Coronavirus - Yikes

[SpaceCoastVol]

Glad I did. Dl not want to get others sick by irresponsibly being at the office or with friends. Also glt Paxlovid, to curtail it.

Science.

You had a cold.

Life is too short to be this afraid, amigo.

Hope you are better soon.

You want 12 rats on a jury?

Where they are heard certainly matters.

To do it in DC or New York would be pointless.
Probably unfair to do it in Texas or Florida.

I have said that Ohio/Pennsylvania or Arizona might serve well as neutral sites.

I had recovered from covid and was caring for 3 vented covid patients nightly. This was the same time my husband had it. Complaining about all this bs and treatment for covid.
64 in Norfolk was empty and I had my essential worker driving pass.

It was really weird to see hardly anyone on I-69 and I-65 in Indiana. It was like a scene from a dystopian sci-fi movie.

Remdesivir was pathetic.
Those drugs were purposely campaigned against as horse paste, ineffective and the cadre of peer studies that were published to discredit those drugs have been proved untrustworthy.
I’ll probably never look at anything the cdc publishes again without the approach of complete skepticism.

The medical community as a whole took a severe hit on their credibility.

We are seeing that backlash now. The amount of incidents that have occurred just on my unit prove that out.

We admitted a woman with stage 4 cancer with Mets to the brain, lungs, liver and spine. Could barely speak, couldn’t tolerate food. Soon was intubated because she had no energy to breathe. Family insisted in keeping her a full code for weeks.
Lo and behold my unit became the target of an investigator on a Twitter channel. The gist was we were holding her hostage, not feeding her, not allowing family to see her and she had unexplained bruises. But she was in good spirits and talking to them daily. (while intubated)
After many escalations by family ethics got involved. Police escorted the MPOA out after threatening 2 staff members. It only took 2 weeks of abuse by this family to get a security guard on the unit during visitation. The family would turn off her food in the room and take a picture of it. They tried videotaping my care for her mother and I told them to leave.
We stopped it all on the unit without admin doing anything but throwing the nurses under the bus. I had enough and wrote up the administrator, my manager and my director for fostering an unsafe work environment by doing nothing.
This popped up outside our unit 3 days later.
Wasn’t that nice of them.

Well, looks like we should shut down the country. And keep it closed at least through November.

How did you handle all the covid panicked?

Gosh, thinking back (I rarely encounter anyone with much worry about it anymore):

- read reports and literature from other countries that were more open and honest about what was really happening (especially in young people), so that I could relate good info to concerned parents

- tried to establish as much "normalcy" as I could.... brought sick kids in like usual, didn't get donned up in a space suit to examine them

- encouraged parents to keep kids in school and as many normal activities as possible

- stayed in near constant contact with Children's hospital administration and specialists there and around the country that I trusted

- worked with members of the local school board to fight against school closures, unnecessary quarantines, and mask mandates

- met with a large group of area physicians who fought mandatory "vaccination" and other measures that were not scientific

- helped organize a massive petition signed by a large number of area providers aimed at getting kids back to school and without masks

- turned off the "News"

- had friends and other kids over to gather and play, as much as they felt comfortable

no - just force masks on everyone

No, double masks... and social distance... and face shields...

We should shut down all non-essential businesses to flatten the curve. Shouldn't take more than seven our eight months.

Feel good about it because you don't want to kill grandma.

I drove 85 miles round trip on I-75 in north GA, the lack of traffic was truly wield, as well as the lack of cops. Cruse control set at 90MPH

It is crazy that double masking was actually a thing for a month or so.

More than that...

Then Fauci decided to suggest face shields as well lol

 

[PEPPERJAX]

What is even crazier is that people believed a got dayum blue paper towel on their face was going to protect them from covid.

Most wildlife biologists know that this is horse chit. Bird flu has been washing through migratory bird populations for years. We have picked up dead geese for years and discarded them. Not a single issue.

In fairness the big one is coming; it is only a matter of time.

The tragic irony of COVID is that governments exhausted their political capital, their potential monetary reserves, and their citizen's willpower on a viral infection akin to the flu. When the big one comes, many more people will perish than would otherwise because COVID was overplayed.

Reminds you a children's fable.

The next big one could be a pandemic of the vaccinated. Immune systems have be compromised.
