Short-Staffed Michigan Hospitals Cut Workers, Beds Amid Patient Surge
BY STEVEN KOVAC September 24, 2021
Staff shortages have forced two large Michigan hospital systems to cut hundreds of beds.
new york braces for massive healthcare worker shortage due to vaccine mandates
watch as the new new york governor proves that there is no empire state frying pan so awful that there is not a fire you can fall out of into…
“man, cuomo was THE WORST on covid.”
hochul: “hold my beer and watch this…”
this is way past kicking an own goal. this is weapons grade stupidity and an object lesson in the fact that there is no situation so bad that a determined government cannot make it worse.
this is an entirely politically made problem. this is what happens when you try to substitute the judgement of half smart politically capture bureaucrats playing “bigger hammer theory” to try to cover their posteriors that are now so openly in the wind.
“trust the science but don’t trust the doctors” is going to go down in history as one of the great public health farces in modern history.
a kitten could see this coming. (proof)
and NY is playing NASTY.
but the numbers are the numbers:
you think you’ve seen peak stupid, but you never have. there is always another level.
and the help is not coming. no one wants to work at hospitals like this. they want to work where they are respected.
care to make a wager on the relative movement of doctors and nurses and skilled techs from new york to florida vs the other way around?
and they’re not coming back if you chase them out AND deny them unemployment.
people don’t forget things like that.
it will not be covid causing this debacle. it’ll be government.
don’t let them forget it.
Texas Hospital CEO Warns It May Stop Delivering Babies Over Biden Vaccine Mandate
USJack Phillips Sep 26, 2021
In August during a San Diego County Board of Supervisors meeting, Heather Cauvel, a registered nurse, railed against vaccine mandates.
‘I was no problem working in the healthcare system over the last 18 months, without a vaccine, but now, all of a sudden, I’m a threat to public health?’
Cauvel went on to resign from her position.
The truth is that the rule-makers are not as concerned with medicine, science or health as they purport to be. This is about submission. Power-hungry pols do not care about protecting people. They are far more interested in controlling people. That’s why all of our freedoms over the last 18 months have been contingent on whether or not we follow the rules.
The heroes of the pandemic were applauded by the left when they pushed the correct agenda. When the first responders had bruise lines below their eyes from tight goggles, they were useful and welcome additions to the storyline du jour.
But when those same people pushed back against the diktats and questioned the mandates — they went from first responders to second-class citizens in a New York minute.

When Hochul’s mandate went into effect on Tuesday, thousands of New York healthcare workers who chose for a variety of reasons not to get the vaccine lost their jobs. Ironically, last year’s widely celebrated healthcare “heroes” — celebrated for continuing to go to work facing the possibility of contracting a novel and potentially deadly coronavirus for which at the time treatment was still a gamble — are today’s zeros, at least according to the likes of Governor Hochul. They are expendable, not for any reason regarding their work, but simply because they refuse a vaccine.
Perhaps Hochul views herself as a religious leader. Over the weekend, she went to the church of the “Covidians” and preached a message equating the COVID vaccine with the Gospel...
It's like they're actively trying to piss people off.

Ask the devil, he's in charge right now.

Or maybe scared shitless of a "control group" as the virus winds down.
But I was wrong. It appears that there is a true war between good and evil. Whether this transcends our mortality, I don't know, but it's there. I cannot deny it now. The war on this, it will never end. It's a struggle of our species.

When paramedics, nurses and drs are willing to lose their jobs, to stand against mandates that violate body autonomy, thats when you have health professionals practicing medicine with ethics.
COVID vaccine passports are being used by governments all over the world to increase vaccination rates and encourage more people to receive the vaccine. As would be expected, the result has been an increased proportion of employees quitting their jobs rather than being compelled to show a vaccine passport to be able to work.
In particular, hospital staff shortages are becoming more prevalent across the country as unvaccinated workers are choosing to leave their employment after the Biden administration mandated that the approximately 17 million workers in health institutions that receive federal Medicare or Medicaid funding have to show a vaccine passport or lose their jobs.
As a result of this, departments of hospitals are closing or reducing healthcare services due to staff shortages caused by the mandates.
With hospitals already stretched thin, the sudden drop in workforce is the difference between some services being halted or discontinued due to a lack of manpower.
Due to a staffing deficit caused by personnel quitting over vaccine regulations, at least one hospital in upstate New York has had to halt maternity treatment and deliveries.
Also, hospital rooms aren’t getting clean sheets and the cafeteria can’t provide hot food due to a staffing deficit in at least one scenario.
Another report from Indiana describes a situation similar to that in North Carolina and New York, with healthcare personnel departing to escape obligatory vaccination.
Moreover, KCBD reports that Brownfield Regional Medical Center in Texas may have to close if the federal vaccine mandate is enforced because of the large number of employees who could resign.
Jerry Jasper, The CEO at Brownfield Regional Medical Center stated to KCBD that “Probably 20 to 25 percent of my staff will have to go away if that’s the case.”
Another CEO, Gerald Cayer of the Lewis County Health System expressed hope that this is a transitory issue as he works with the state Department of Health to prevent the maternity unit from permanently closing because six of the hospital’s maternity unit employees resigned to avoid receiving the COVID-19 vaccine.
“There are 165 hospital employees who have not received a COVID-19 vaccine, which is 27% of the workforce, the other 73%, or 464 employees, have already received the vaccine. If we can pause the service and now focus on recruiting nurses who are vaccinated, we will be able to re engage in delivering babies here in Lewis County,” he said.
Additionally, a representative of Indiana University Health, Indiana’s largest hospital system with over thirty thousand employees, told Newsweek that “125 employees, the equivalent of 61 full-time employees, chose not to receive the COVID-19 vaccine and have left the organization.”
The situation will likely become more acute in the coming months when an increasing number of mandates take effect this month and in November.

No. He's not.
We are in charge.
It's the continual war. I was the biggest most vocal atheist 15 years ago. I would have attacked your reasoning and thinking process if you expressed you had belief in ANY god then, and I was extremely effective at doing this, and I had and still have sound arguments.
But I was wrong. It appears that there is a true war between good and evil. Whether this transcends our mortality, I don't know, but it's there. I cannot deny it now. The war on this, it will never end. It's a struggle of our species.
I think we must be improving. We are in a far more gentle and peaceful society than we were 200 or 2000 years ago. I have great hope and confidence...
Fuck the system! Burn it down! And burn down the vaxxed sick with it!
In A Dramatic Turn, The Once-Heralded Nurses And Healthcare Workers Are Being Fired For Not Getting Their Vaccination Shots
