Misinformation leads to animosity toward Idaho health care workers

Dude, these are real vaccines. WTF is wrong with you?
how would you feel if you were an ER worker and get to work and find that your already understaffed ER just lost 15 workers because they are not vaccinated,even though they get tested daily and take precautions?....and look at all the people waiting to be seen....

Yes, you responded similarly earlier. I'm more worried about my trip to Boise next week than I am unvaccinated clinics. They have all indicated that they have a 100% vax rate.

Of course this is Boise - The rest of the state sucks and consists of a butt-load of angry Trump Humpers who actually believe the disinformation.

If you are vaccinated, why would it matter who else is or isn't? Oh right, because that experimental treatment isn't a real vaccine. See how that works?
 
Remember when people clapped and banged pots and pans in NYC each evening to thank exhausted health care workers on the front lines? The docs and nurses were heroes and we treated them with respect. No mas, and that is really sad.

BOISE, Idaho (AP) — A constant barrage of misinformation has Idaho health care workers facing increased animosity from some patients and community members, officials say. It’s gotten so bad in northern Idaho that some Kootenai Health employees are scared to go to the grocery store if they haven’t changed out of their scrubs, said hospital spokeswoman Caiti Bobbitt on Tuesday.​
Some doctors and nurses at the Coeur d’Alene hospital have been accused of killing patients by grieving family members who don’t believe COVID-19 is real, Bobbitt said. Others have been the subject of hurtful rumors spread by people angry about the pandemic.​
“Our health care workers are almost feeling like Vietnam veterans, scared to go into the community after a shift,” Bobbitt said.​
Similar instances are happening across the state, said Brian Whitlock, president of the Idaho Hospital Association.​
“We’ve had reports of physical violence, verbal abuse, demands for alternative treatment that are not acceptable or approved. And those become very difficult conversations to have as the patient continues to decompensate,” Whitlock said. “We’re not frustrated with the misinformed. We’re frustrated with those who propagate the misinformation because it’s costing people their lives.”​
Misinformation remains rampant in Idaho. Some far-right state lawmakers, political organizations and local leaders — including a pathologist who was recently appointed to the public health board for the state’s most populated region — have been dismissive of COVID-19 vaccines, pushed the use of an anti-parasitic drug to treat coronavirus despite potentially harmful side effects and little evidence it helps, and wrongly claimed that coronavirus case numbers are being inflated.​
Meanwhile, the entire state entered “crisis standards of care” earlier this month, authorizing health care rationing for hospitals overwhelmed by a flood of COVID-19 patients. On Sept. 25, the state hit new records with 757 hospitalized COVID-19 patients, including 202 in intensive care unit beds and 131 on ventilators.​

There is no misinformation, just information.

Idaho is not special. They don’t believe it’s real in Appalachia, either. The Chinese communists cocksuckers knew things like this would happen as long as they deceived and played dumb about their virus. There are also Americans involved in this deception and collusion.
 
No, it's not. This garbage is nothing more than experimental immuno-enhancers. You don't need endless boosters for a real vaccine.

Whatevs man - Go get it in your desperate attempt to get COVIDS and end up in a hospital.
Don't much care when you choose to go entirely STOOPID.

Not just Idaho, it is happening all over. Those risking their lives to care for loved ones are now the target of the newest conspiracy theories.

I can hardly go entirely STOOPID if I reject this experimental treatment. Don't forget to line up when big pharma demands their next pound of flesh.
 
Stats need to be compared: mRNA vaxx vs. adenovirus vxx. (as it relates to obese and elderly [italics]).

and you responded the same way....
 
People in Idaho are no different from anyone else. They react positively when the media is positive and they react in a negative way when the media is negative regardless of whether the story is fair or unfair.

Thus, the media can manipulate them.
 
Show me a real vaccine and we can talk about. This fake ass experimental treatment isn't going to cut it.


The Pfizer vaccine is not experimental. It's fully approved. There are many studies showing it's efficacy and has been administered to over one billion people.

Meanwhile, those monoclonal antibodies you people are hyping for people to take, ARE experimental. They are being used on emergency approval. There are no studies on the long term or short term side effects.

Meanwhile the horse dewormer IS experimental as far as the virus is concerned. There are no studies that prove it is effective and it's not approved for the virus but is approved to remove parasites from livestock.

So, you won't take a vaccine that is not experimental, that is fully approved but you will take a treatment that is not fully approved, is on an emergency approval, is totally experimental and don't know the long term side effects. You will also take a drug that is not approved for the virus, is experimental in treating the virus and has no studies that show it's effective against the virus.

You show that your motivation is nothing but political and hypocritical.
 
It's unfortunate that the OP and his leftist dickwads are only capable of showing concern for Covid when it's a red state.
Why aren't they concerned about this?
