My sister - who lives in Jacksonville, Florida - just texted me and said that her husband met with a neurosurgeon - he needs surgery, but he can't have it due to the "overwhelming" covid "inpatients". According to my sister, he will remain on crutches / wheelchair and in constant pain! These hospitals need to be held FINANCIALLY responsible for the pain and suffering they are causing regular patients due to their LIES!!

What does a neurosurgeon and operating rooms have to do with Covid? Is there a surgical procedure for treating Covid? Sad. It’s curious that DeSantis doesn’t have a team out there throwing bullshit flags on this kind of crap.
This is a lie. What hospital. I live in Florida. Hospitals are running normal
I know.... and you know... but my sister drank the kool-aid and won't question it. Their entire family - including their daughter - got the jab.
Out hospital system is not running "normal" and we are overrun with COVID patients who are very sick. Where we live it is not business as usual in Central Florida.
False. My brother caught Covid. It was nothing more than a bad cold. No reason for anyone to be hospitalized.
Also just for your info, for any hospitalized patient no matter the diagnosis, daily medical updates have to be given to insurance companies for each patient and each day has to be approved by insurance. You dont get to occupy a room in a hospital without it being medically necessary.
If I understand correctly, hospitals were getting 80k per Covid patient ?? There is your incentive … don’t know if that is still the case.
Bullshit! You can go to the hospital without insurance.
LYING FAGGOT!
Anybody can "go to" the hospital, but for your insurance to pay for you to be an inpatient, you must meet severity of illness and intensity of services for them to pay for your stay there. You can be seen in the emergency room but you wont be admitted to a hospital unless you are sick enough to be there. I know this because it is part of my job to review cases and update insurance companies.
I have worked in hospitals for over 40 years. I have never seen a patient with just a cold on a vent. This most recent group of patients is younger with fewer comorbidities. I audit patient charts and I see the documentation so I know what I am talking about. Where does your expertise come from?
Serious question: Why does the hospital in OKC look vacant if they’re so busy? The news reports they’re full but if you drive by there’s no one visible.
I can only tell you what I know from our hospital. Pre-COVID the visitor parking lot was always full, but when COVID hit, visitors are extremely limited. Our hospital is full to the brim, but the visitor parking lot looks empty. If you drive to the back of the hospital, the employee parking lot is full. Also, during a surge, patients tend to not get their outpatient testing done like normal, so the outpatient lab, x-ray, etc. is not very busy.
That doesn’t line up with what I saw. The hospital looked empty.
Another serious question: What medications are given to COVID patients in your hospital? I realize you're getting hit hard with naysayers, and I appreciate the time you are taking to respond. But I am curious as to what treatments hospitals are using
Thank you. In the beginning convalescent plasma was being given, and it still is, but the medication that we were told yesterday on a call that is working the best is Regeneron monoclonal antibodies. They are still using Remdesivir. Dexamethasone (steroids) are used to reduce inflammation, and antibiotics for secondary infections, especially for pneumonia. By the time a person is sick enough to be hospitalized, they pull out the big guns. The goal is to keep a person off of a ventilator.
I am in Central Florida. My wife works at a hospital.
She says there is an uptick in corona patients, but the flip side to this is that they also began testing -everyone- again three weeks or so ago (sound about right for recent media surge)?
LOLOL … that’s it. But who coordinated this state wide to bump cases across ALL different care provider chains ??
Many of them are very large networks that own many hospitals. Not the answer to your excellent question though.
I agree that they are testing more, but the sick patients occupying so many hospital beds arent faking.
Yes, I would like more data. She doesn't work on the Corona wing (consistently, she has before earlier on) so it's difficult but I still try to draw as much as I can from her.
FUCKING LIAR- DEPORT THUS FAGGOT BREN
Because I know what I am talking about? Lol. All you know to do is call names.
I read biden poured covid illegals into texas and Florida on purpose to sicken these 2 states for opposing him.
I wouldnt doubt it.
Another J-Ville pede chiming in. We have several people out at my work with it, two severe enough to be hospitalized (1 vaxxed, 1 unvaxxed). Something is definitely going around. Now whether it is the flu knocking more people on their ass because everyone's immune systems have taken a hit, it's a variant injected via vaccine, now spreading around, I don't know. I do find it interesting thought the FL Dept. of Health said only 6% of those hospitalized are unvaxxed. Here is the article, it says it 1/2 way down after they throw a bunch of scary numbers at everyone.
"Only 6% of people currently hospitalized due to COVID-19 are unvaccinated, according to Weesam Khoury, communications director for the Florida Department of Health."

Some one mentioned this:
People might want to start actually filming and photographing the parts of the hospital where Covid patients would actually be.
Leave the ER out of it, they aren’t going there. They aren’t storing patients in the ER waiting room. Showing an empty ER waiting room is meaningless. Showing an empty radiology unit is meaningless. Driving by an empty hospital annex building is meaningless.
Stop showing the parking lot, they didn’t bring their cars.
If the claim is that the ICU beds are filled up, you need to show the ICU or don’t bother. Literally meaningless unless you show the place where the patients actually are supposed to be.
And since timestamps can be manipulated, hold up a newspaper. I get a headache every time I think of people in 2020 driving by empty hospital annex buildings and claiming the hospitals were empty. It made us look like fucking retards.
Furthermore, the following was posted.
A Simple Plan
One cannot deny the truth. The farse that hospitals are overloaded is fraud. We show it. We sit on it live time. Join together. Fraud is real and We can show the world. Every day, 'They' cannopt get away from it or disprove it.
Well... unfortunately - most can't get TO the ICU to get pics. They have hospitals locked down just so people can't see what is really going on!!
If they are concealing the truth, people need to break the rules. In Brazil, a throng of people walked right by their weak security and filmed the empty ICU exposing their lies. It can work here too. There are many ways to expose their lies. Getting admin information on the number of ICU beds and comparing it to actual numbers of occupancy. Even using service and maintenance 'actors' for using concealed video devices. Find out who cleans the ICU and sweeps the floors. Someone maintains the electrical and medical equipment, the list goes on....
Here are some facts. The hospitals look empty because during a COVID surge, visitation is shut down and the visitor parking lots are empty. Also, during a surge, many outpatient services are shut down, such as outpatient surgery, and those buildings are empty. If you happen to drive around to the back of a hospital during a surge, you will see a full employee parking lot. Also, many hospital employees that don't have direct patient contact have been working from home. The hospital I work at was full today with 18 patients holding in the ED. If you walked down the hall it looked like a ghost town because of lack of visitors, and many people do not want to come to the hospital during a surge to have their lab, xrays, etc. and go to outpatient clinics instead, so yes outpatient testing is not as busy, thus fewer cars in the parking lots. Many physician offices that are located on hospital premises are still doing virtual visits so those parking spaces are also empty. I hope that this helps with why hospitals look empty when in fact they are full of very sick people with physicians and nurses working their butts off. You are looking for answers, and I hope that this answers some of your questions.
These are NOT facts, but instead your narrative of something I simply don't believe. So many witnesses have already debunked this FRAUD by going into the so-called 'Covid' wards to film them empty. So, STFU.
How convenient for hiding a FRAUD!! We are coming to the hospitals to expose all those paid deceiving.
There is no pandemic. There IS a SCAMdemic and renowned international criminal attorney Reimer Fuellmich and over 110 worldwide scientific experts have testified the Covid-19 pandemic is a SCAM. David Martin. PhD. has incontrovertible evidence through chronological patents and FOIA released communications that this grand FRAUD has been planned since at least 2002.
The hospitals are not full. The morbidity in deaths due to disease are NOT any different than any previous years. Even WHO and the CDC have admitted the PCR Test is a massive fraud in that it was, ab intio, never capable of distinguishing between the flu and Covid-19. This explains why the influenza death rate took a precipitous decline to near zero levels in 2020, when Covid-19 numbers increases proportionally. The PCR test was never designed to determine a specific pathogen. It's use in 2020 was set for cycle amplifications of over 40,, which is double the number of cycles for reliability. At 35 cycles the CT test is 100 percent unreliable. Any thing over 24 cycles is 97% false-positives. In 2020, the United States was using PCR tests running them at 45 cycles.
Several governments have been sued and challenged on using the PCR test and the courts have ruled the PCR should have never been the basis for determining the pandemic.
So, the SCAM orchestrated through the CDC; a vaccine company holding well over 20 vaccine patents and a revolving door to pharmaceutical companies, and now an usurper of authority over rental properties, is telling us they have data and numbers reporting a 'Delta' variant spreading. The problem with this is there is NO test capable of determining a cornona variant. So, how does the CDC report the number of cases? They can't and are liars. The CDC has never been a public health and safety agency. They do not care about you and I. Their origin is based on eugenics. The CDC was a part of the Tuskegee Experiment that lasted from 1932 to 1972. At least that's what they claim. The CIA also did human experiments under MKULTRA. It was said to last from 1953 to 1973, but it, like the Tuskagee Experiment, never ended, but was rebirthed under another department with a different name and classification. Today we are all experiencing the Greater Tuskegee Experiment.
I can only speak from my personal experience and what I say about my hospitals is truth. During the height of the surge last year we did not have enough clinical staff to adequately take care of all of the COVID patients and FEMA sent in physicians, nurses, and respiratory therapists to relieve some of our staff to care for our patients. Also, many staff members contracted COVID and had to be off work to recover. Two of our physicians contracted it and were hospitalized in our hospital. I have no reason to make this up. Since I have been in the medical community for over 40 years, I have many friends who are nurses and physicians that work at other hospitals who can provide similar accounts. Do I believe the numbers of COVID patients nationwide was inflated? Yes, absolutely I do, but there are patients who contract COVID and get extremely ill and require hospitalization and some do die from it. My brother died in March, not from COVID, and yesterday I took his ashes to the cemetery for burial. The staff there was telling me how difficult this past year has been with deaths of younger people, many from COVID. I do not believe the MSM any more and I am awake. There have been many lies about this pandemic with inflated numbers, but the fact remains that there have been surges where people get very Iil and die from the complications of COVID. It attacks the lungs like no other virus I have ever seen. You don't know me and I dont know you. There are some kooks on this sight and I am not one of them. I am an open minded person and that is why I have become awake to the radical Left and cabal and their agenda. China perpetrated biological warfare on the world to help usher in the new world order and D.C. is in on it. You have to know that everything you read on GA is not true and some people still get their info from the MSM. What a shame it is that when somebody is telling the truth from their own experience that it is not believed, but what somebody read somewhere and they regurgitate it, is taken as gospel. Yes, this was a scandemic on many fronts, but it does not mean that people haven't gotten very ill and died from the actual COVID virus. The radical Left used COVID to further their agenda with unecessary lockdowns and used fear to control us and the MSM carried their water. Yes, COVID was probably put on death certificates when it shouldnt have been, but it doesnt negate those that truly died from it. Those people are a small percent of the overall population, but when you have over 40 of these patients in a small hospital, it taxes the hospital's resources because it takes a lot of staff to care for them. These patients can turn bad quickly and it takes a lot of care when they start turning to try to keep them off of a ventilator. Many are on high flow oxygen and they become exhausted from trying to breathe and some are placed on vents to provide rest and to keep them from full blown respiratory and cardiac failure. It viciously attacks the lungs. Some patients go into a cytokine storm where COVID for some reason causes their immune system to over react and then they get into trouble. I really dont care if you believe me or not. That is your choice. What I do find ironic is that people will believe what somebody posts based on something they read and not personal experience. Think about it. 40 plus patients is not a lot of people compared to the general population of our community, but it is s lot of people to have in a small hospital with the same diagnosis, especially when many require an ICU bed and it taxes the hospital. Again, you are correct that this was a scamdemic with artificially inflated numbers, but it does not negate the fact that there are people who became seriously ill from COVID and required hospitalization. You are free to believe what you like, but you have no basis to call me a liar. I am certain that you got all of your info based on personal experience and not what you read from your computer where you sit all day in your xxxl stained tshirt covered in Cheeto dust.. Carry on. And no, I will not stfu
You have been hoodwinked and your narrative leaves out many facts. Non-essential medical procedures were all shut down. Most of a hospital operational finances are based on 'elective' surgery, not the ICU. This was all shut down. Non-essential medical treatment is preventive treatment and surgery. Melanoma, diabetes, myocarditis-induced disease, cardiac by-pass surgery, and many, many more standard treatments were shut down. My father-in-law died as a result of these treatments being shut down. We couldn't even attend his funeral, which I will never forgive the officials behind this entire SCAM. When 'non-essential' treatment is forbidden, the back-log of cases tend to become acute and numerous. We already know that Covid essentially affected people with medical pre-conditions. Almost ALL cases of "Covid" falls in this category. Pre-conditions is synonymous with being elderly. Many of these nurses and doctors had to shut down their clinics. So, your hospital back-log of patients, that is, if they actually existed, was inflicted by the government lock-downs.
The so-called "Covid-19 pandemic" is actually a PCR induced SCAMdemic. The PCR test cannot detect infections and yet it was the tool and driver behind the entire SCAMdemic. Innocent victims with medical pre-conditions and the elderly were falsely diagnosed with Covid when it was actually influenza. Hospitals were getting paid $$$$ to diagnose patients as having Covid-19. This is all well documented. The annual death rate due to influenza dropped precipitously in 2020 to a near ZERO level and has NEVER occurred before. The annual death rate for 2020 falls within the normal range of yearly deaths due to disease. Amazing, no? You cannot deny this incontrovertible fact. You have been hoodwinked.
David Martin, Ph.D, has exposed it all by their own records. World renown international Trial lawyer, Reimer Fuellmich is exposing this great SCAM in the courts. He is winning cases in Germany, Austria, and Portugal, in which the rulings are that the PCR test cannot be the basis for ANY ant-corona measures.
I am not hoodwinked. I agree with most of what you say above. Whatever you want to call COVID, we are seeing patients with the same types of severe respiratory symptoms that we have not seen before. Almost every patient on our COVID unit has those same symptoms; mostly upper respiratory, and is characterized by the lack of taste and smell, so it is the same strain of whatever you want to call it. So whether it is COVID or a certain other strain of flu, our hospitals in our system are being overrun by this type of patient. Yes, we have seen hospitalizations increased every year, especially in the winter by flu complications, especially in those with comorbidities, and especially COPD, but never like this. You are correct, we did not have a "flu" outbreak this past year and people who probably did not have COVID were lumped in with them. Call it what you want. We are seeing the same type of strain of virus that has specific symptoms in common. I would call that an outbreak of a specific virus. Did the people who have not required hospitalization but have been diagnosed with COVID have just the flu or common cold? Yes it is likely. Was this purposely perpetrated on the world? Yes. Did our politicians and government take advantage of this and create a false narrative? Yes they did. Did they lock us down to try to take us down? Yes they did. What I am saying is that I am not going to let somebody who is not on the front lines try to tell me what I am seeing and not seeing with my own eyes. We have too many of the same type of respiratory patient with exact same symptoms for their not to be outbreak of a specific virus. I am just repeating myself, so if whoever wants to believe whatever, I am ok with that. I know what I know.
Yet, you are ignoring the US total deaths due to disease is the SAME (within the norm) as all other years past. This is NOT a pandemic. The death rate is the same as a typical flu year. Corona virus accounts for about 25% of the common cold. It is not new. This "Covid-19" whether man-made or not, isn't killing any more people than any other ailment has in the past years. I had it and my wife had it. It isn't the only ailment where one looses their sense of smell and taste. Whether you admit it or not you are participating in the fear porn that will lead to lock-downs. And whether you watched the video I linked in my last reply describes this in unequivocal detail. We are at war.
Furthermore, you must be hoodwinked because this citizen journalist has proven hospitals in FL are not over flowing, but are the opposite. It is the SAME lie being exposed as last year.
We are also seeing the same type of fake narrative that was debunked last year. Moreover, there is no such thing as a "strain". There is NO TEST that can detect it, let alone diagnose it. Medical examinations start with the lungs via listening with a stethoscope and looking for symptoms. There is NO TEST that can detect Covid-19. This is a proven fact that the WHO and CDC even admits to now. They were caught red handed. This is the result of Germ Theory allowed to run amok.
History teaches us that pneumonia and influenza are the tools the Grim Reaper uses most for removing the elderly and placing them 6-ft. under. Now, the hospitals are taking $$$$$ and calling it Covid-19 and the Delta strain.
Know also that the Covid vaXXXIne destroys the immune system. In fact, almost, if not all, allopathic drugs undermine and weaken the immune system. For the elderly this makes them more vulnerable.
Most drugs compromise a normal functioning immune system. The question is - Can any one name a petro-chemical drug that doesn't compromise your immune system. I don't know any. Pharmaceutical drugs such as:
Corticosteroids - brand names such as prednisone are medications that treat conditions including arthritis, asthma, allergic reactions, and autoimmune diseases such as lupus, sarcoidosis, or inflammatory bowel disease.
TNF inhibitors are medications that treat autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and inflammatory bowel disease.
Heartburn Drugs that suppress stomach acid.
Statin Drugs to lower cholesterol such as Lipitor, Mevacor, Pravachol.
SSRI Antidepressants such as Prozac, Zoloft, and Paxil.
Proton pump inhibitors or PPIs such as Nexium, Prevacid, and Prilosec.
Opioid Drugs such as hydrocodone, oxycodone, fentanyl, codeine, and morphine block the immune system’s ability to attack viral and bacterial invaders.
Some Pain killing drugs such as Tramdol combine an opioid with acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol), further compromising the immune system with acetaminophen’s toxic effects on liver function, Acetaminophen (e.g. Tylenol) is very hard on the liver, the body’s major organ of detoxification. A simple dosage mixup, such as giving a teaspoon of liquid acetaminophen vs. a dropperful, can cause liver damage, particularly in children. When the body is invaded by a virus or bacteria, the debris of the battle is processed through the liver. A compromised liver cannot effectively remove toxins caused by infection.
Fake fragrances, also known as fakegrances, such as the (so called) air fresheners, scented laundry soaps and personal care products, candles, and most perfumes can be problematic, especially with young children and the elderly.
The website Pneumotox (www.pneumotox.com/)is run by two doctors in the Department of Pulmonary Diseases and Intensive Care Unit, University Hospital in Dijon, France. It lists more than 300 drugs along with their specific negative effects on the lungs, and has a rating system based on adverse effects reported in medical literature.
Now lets look at vaccines. Please understand that there are NO effectiveness and safety lab tests for any vaccines and hasn't been for the last 32 years. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has won a landmark case (https://www.worldhealth.net/news/rfk-jr-wins-case-against-government-vaccine-safety-violations/) proving this. In other words, all vaccines are unsafe. Is it a coincidence, that autism started to take off about 30 years ago?
Ok please give it a rest. I am only telling what is going on in our hospital. I will not post any more to suit you. The disease is real but the magnitude is not. I know we are at war. I know that we are fighting the dark side.
Baptist MEmorial?
There's more than one hospital in Jacksonville!
You might not want to hear this but I work for a small 175 bed hospital in Florida and we have 42 COVID patients today and they are really sick. Our entire hospital system is at peak with these patients. It is no joke. As if our clinicians arent already burnt out from this past year, they are now enduring another surge. The average age of these patients is 50.
How do you know they're covid patients if the pcr test doesn't even work?
Because there is a group of common symptoms that is indicative of the disease, mostly respiratory with a specific type of pneumonia. Most patients lose their sense of taste and smell as a first symptom.
Alright, makes sense.
Thank you. I call truce. Seriously, I am on GA because I am awake. I know that this virus is a biological weapon that was engineered. I know the black hats are taking full advantage of it with lockdowns, masks, high cycles of testing, etc. I know that it is being said that the vaccine is also a weapon. On the other hand, I know what I am seeing with my own eyes from personal experience. The virus is real and is no joke to the unfortunate ones who have had a cytokene storm, or who waited too long to get treatment. It has taxed our small hospital to the hilt and this week was horrible with some young people coding and dying. Many, many people have had COVID and it was no big deal, but the hospital industry has been inundated. People say, "But I drive by the hospitals and they look empty!". Yes they do, because visitation is shut down and the visitor parking lots have few cars. I am a truth seeker and I support this site, but I get upset when people refuse to listen to people who have first hand knowledge. Thank you.
did they come INTO the hospital with JUST covid - or did they come in with another co-morbidity and tested positive for covid? That is another important question. Next question would be - vaxxed or unvaxxed? Can you tell us by what you are seeing?
Most of the patients who are in the hospital presented to the ED with upper respiratory symptoms that included shortness of breath, fever, etc. Some patients didn't know they had COVID. Some patients were treated as an outpatient for COVID by their physicians but failed outpatient treatment. Some patients presented with some other illness but tested positive. Some patients suspected they had COVID because a family member had it or they were exposed. All patients were sick enough to be hospitalized. Patients who are morbidly obese are at the biggest risk. Diabetes and hypertension are also big risk factors. So to answer your question, there have been a variety of situations, but currently patients who are testing positive are presenting with respiratory symptoms and usually have pneumonia. I was told that 90% of those hospitalized now are unvaccinated. I see a list everyday of the current patients in the hospital and their vaccination status. There is a separate list of COVID patients with their designation as vaccinated or unvaccinated.
Thanks for your input - but, I don't trust anything anymore. They have lied for so long - now, everything can be (or probably is) a lie! Marking vaccinated or unvaccinated can be just a click or no click. I really don't buy that most in the hospital are "UN"vaccinated!
I understand. I dont know what to believe or not to believe. The reason I stated what I did is because my personal experience is real, not just something I read somewhere. Your choice to believe or not. I can tell you that our staff has no agenda. I can see each chart and how the nurse designates. Blessings to you.
Thank you!! And God Bless you for the work you do!! It's important for everyone to be treated with respect - whether one takes the jab or not.
Curious, bulk of the patients ages and vaccine status?
We survey all patients who come into the hospital regarding their vaccine status. 90% of our current COVID census are unvaccinated. The patients we are seeing this surge tend to be younger. I heard that this could possibly be due to that many of the elderly were vaccinated. The average age is 50, that is not to say that we don't have some in their 30's, 40's, 70's, etc. I was surprised to learn this as I had no idea whether the vaccines were effective. I am not advocating for the vaccines.
I was on a call with our corporate office yesterday where I was updated. The average age of patients this time around is 50. 90% of our hospitalized patients are unvaccinated. There has not been one death attributed to COVID for a patient who is vaccinated to date during this surge in our hospital system. Currently we have approximately 2000 patients diagnosed with COVID in our hospital system. Today I spoke with a nurse case manager in our hospital and she covers ICU where 11 COVID patients are on vents of the 41 currently hospitalized. There are patients who are in there 30's to 50's in this group. My friend's daughter just spent 30 days in a hospital for COVID where she was on a vent for 2 weeks. She is in her 30's but is overweight and diabetic.
Is this corporate office magically more honest with the numbers than every other authority that's been constantly lying to us for 18 months now?
That sounds like such a load of shit. The same bullshit stats I am hearing in FL. Who is putting this info out ???
HE IS FULL OF SHIT
I am so glad that you all are medical "experts". I am dealing with facts based on that every hospitalized COVID patient is surveyed regarding their vaccination status and this is where the real raw data comes from. I have first hand knowledge of the struggles the clinicians have regarding the management of these very sick patients with their unusual symptoms. I hear the multiple rapid response codes being called all day on the COVID floor where the medical teams fight to keep these patients off of ventilators. Yes, I said COVID floor, not unit. I have multiple friends who have had COVID includingnone who had 2 heart attacks because of the clotting that it causes not to mention thatI she still can't taste and has the smell of burning paper in her nose a year later. I have firsthand knowledge unlike most people on these message boards who get their "facts" from the opinions of others. I am neither for or against the vaccine. What I am for is the right for a person to make their own decision about it. Before you pretend to know what you are talking about, you should do some real research instead of sitting in front of your computer eating Cheetos all day and reading message board posts. When you have firsthand knowledge why don't you circle back to me.
Hit a little sore spot, huh? The FU comment is usually used when the person doesn't have anything intelligent to say. The PCR tests are not the only thing used to diagnose COVID. There are a set of symptoms that go along with a positive test. These are the people we are seeing in the hospital, not merely the people who have minor flu symptoms who don't need to come to the hospital. The hospitalized people are the ones I am talking about. You work in healthcare? What? The janitor in a physician's clinic? Did I aggregate the data personally? No, but I know the actual numbers of 4 hospitals that report the numbers because I am over those hospitals. I am the director of case management and am on the front line. My department has RN's who work directly with families of COVID patients who deliver messages back and forth when the patients can't have visitors. My employees work trying to find placement for these patients when they are on a vent and we need to free up rooms because we have 20 patients waiting in the ED to be admitted. My employees deliver the last message a patient wants to get to their families before they die of COVID because they can't come off of the vent. My employees sit with families of a 40 year old COVID patient who has just coded 3 times in one day. My employees witness the nurses and physicians exhausting themselves taking care of these high maintenance patients day in and day out. Tell me what your personal experience is in working directly with COVID patients. We are a 170 bed hospital with 43 COVID patients in the hospital today, many of them in their 30's, 40's, and 50's, and many of them on ventilators. I am currently trying to get one of our local SNF's to partner with our hospitals to re-open their COVID unit and the hospital will supply the necessary PPE, so that we can free up some of our beds. They don't have staff because 6 of their nurses are out with COVID and their DON is in the hospital with COVID. Don't try to tell me what my experience is Mr. janitor boy.
Just to clarify - you work for " a small 175 bed hospital in Florida" or you are "over [4 of] those hospitals. I am the director of case management"
Not trying to attack you - but if you are the director of case management over four hospitals.. why did you begin by saying you work at a "small" hospital with 175 beds? Are you directing case manager over four hospitals, or do you work for (ie not over) a small hospital with 175 beds?
"90% unvaccinated" my ass. Get real. We've been fed these bullshit lies regarding numbers and percentages for the past year and half now. Who would EVER believe "corporate" numbers at this point?
Yah- he’s a SHILL CONFIRMED. DEPORT
These hospitals need to be held FINANCIALLY responsible for the pain and suffering they are causing regular patients due to their LIES!!
I live in Jax area, I have been hearing this for last two weeks. From on the ground real world folk, not offered, prying it out. I don’t understand how they are doing this for the flu.
There is no overwhelming patients in the hospitals.
That’s a lie.
Won’t be popular for saying this... I was in AL/FL then LA and I caught something. Pretty sure it was the delta. It knocked me on my ass off and on for a month. I took a zpack, which typically know is everything out of me. My boyfriend, who’s never sick was sick for two weeks. I do think people are getting sick. That being said, I don’t believe the numbers and I don’t discount it could’ve been shedding or a new strain they are releasing. Based on personal experiences and observations, I think they are releasing it through the rain or faucet water.
I got a minor bug... headaches, sneezing, low grade fever - and I took some Ivermectin - was better in just a few days! Now. NO SYMPTOMS!
Oh my - that is ridiculous!! I will keep her in prayers!!! God Bless!!
