Doctors and nurses?

The fake news strikes again
Health systems have reduced elective procedures and visits in order to reduce the amount of person to person contact and preserve PPE which is in short supply. Those procedures and visits generated a lot of revenue and results in large deficits. The people will most likely be rehired when this returns to normal.
And there are not enough covid patients to use the staff
Yawn
Use them how? Medical staff aren’t all interchangeable. They all have specific skills. Not everyone is an ICU nurse or respiratory tech.
Nope, if you have a pandemic all the medical staff are needed. Hospitals are empty in many places, even the hospital ship left ny because it was empty.
The truth is there you just refuse to see it
Nope. You need specific medical staff for specific reasons.
You also need cafeteria workers to feed full hospitals and if the hospital is near empty these people get laid off.
Tell us moron since the hospitals are empty anyway why cant heart patients get life saving surgery?
Answer because of morons like you
Cafeterias are empty because family is not allowed to visit except in special circumstances.
Heart patients are indeed getting life saving surgery.
You morons don’t really know what you’re talking about. Stop pretending.
Actually simpleton the cafeteria workers provide the food for patients and since there are very few patients they were laid off
Stroke and heart patients are not showing up, for some reason
Please pay attention mr fake news
Only morons believe the government as they have never once told the truth
And this isnt the first time
Cafeteria workers provide food for patients and visitors, and now that there are no visitors, the cafeterias aren’t as busy. This isn’t rocket science. Even a moron like you can figure that out.
No one told stroke and heart patients not to show up. Maybe they believe liars like yourself who say that heart surgeries aren’t being performed.
So you believe that 2.2 million people will die
Or is it 200 thousand
Or 100 thousand
Or 66 thousand
All lies that you can not change
PS I had this disease my entire family did but they refuse to test us because the fatality number will be less than the common cold if we are all tested
But you saw different on tv
Whaaaaa
We are almost at 60k deaths as of today, almost entirely in the month of April and with extreme measures to limit the spread. The common cold doesn’t kill a fraction of that. Influenza might do that over the course of an entire year if it’s particularly bad.
People like you saying this is now worse than the common cold are brain dead morons.
0.03 percent of californians are dead of this. Better yet the more people who get this the lower the number goes
Stats do not lie, but fake news believing morons do
Yawn
Why cant I get tested when I had a fever diarrhea and I lost my taste? My wife lost her hearing but no one wants us added to the database
Lol
You probably believe in Gilligan's island too
Depends on when it happened. We weren’t testing people who didn’t require hospitalization because we didn’t have capacity to test people when it would have no difference on their treatment. In your ignorance, you invented a fake conspiracy theory.
You aren’t lying, because you don’t know what you’re talking about in the first place. Turn off Tucker Carlson and you at least won’t be spouting off fake news.
Let's be intellectually honest here. If Tucker is spewing fake news, you can't really think that other networks like CNN and MSNBC AREN'T.
Most ALL news sources are suspect to testing and verification these days.
Journalism is a dead art now replaced by networks all with their own biases and political agendas.
Not the point. This poster was coming up false information that was propagated on Tucker’s show yesterday. Maybe it’s a coincidence, but I’m calling out Tucker here because I believe that’s the source of this fake news.
Lol tucker had the doctors on that were viewed here over the weekend. Furthermore they uses CDC numbers so if they lied so is the cdc
If you’re referring to the two doctors I think you’re referring to, Drs Erickson and Massihi, then no, they weren’t using CDC numbers.
These two doctors were trying to tell people 12% of California had been infected. They did so based on the testing results of the people who presented to urgent care. So for starters, their sample population isn’t representative. These are people presenting for medical care. That’s the biggest selection bias one could think of. Using that, they got 6% positive tests. Then, for unknown reasons, they just decided to double that to 12%. Why? Who knows. They just wanted to.
But Tucker put them on TV anyway and didn’t challenge them on their claims because 1. Tucker isn’t very knowledgeable on these matters and 2. They said what Tucker wants to believe.
