This blew me away last night. I am also a nurse, recently retired, and I asked my best friend, Donna, the following question last night after she confirmed her hospital's policy:
Q - "Okay. Let me ask you this. Do you agree that a trauma/heart attack/stroke or any patient coming into the ER should be denied treatment if they refuse a CoVID test?"
Her immediate and emphatic answer - "YES."
My immediate response was laughter. I then asked her, "If I agreed to a CoVID test, could I choose which one I want from the 409 different available tests?"
She replied that the hospital where she works (a Catholic one at that) "uses 2 or 3 different tests."
My final question was: "What if my CoVID test was positive, but I was completely asymptomatic?" Her reply, "You are admitted to the CoVID floor."
Since the very beginning, Donna has been 100% CoVID brainwashed. We just don't talk about it. I tried a few times in the past, and her anger was immediate, as in, "I don't want to hear it."
I believe I must end my 40-year friendship with Donna.
Isnt it odd that a person without insurance could not be turned away but a possible covid patient can be....both involve $.
As for Donna's views, in the beginning didnt she realize something was wrong when,,,,, Everyone got locked in, not just the sick?
Everyone had to wear masks all the time, even at home when any trained nurse was taught masks do not prevent viruses?
Governors transferred sick patients to nursing homes instead of isolated hospital units?
Small stores that can control the number of customers were closed but huge box stores with hundreds of customers remained open?
Suddenly no need for hand sanitizer?
I think to Donna its just a job, do what youre told then go home. But how do you sleep wondering how many people you killed that day. We all know somebody like that.
