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.
That’s the problem right there. Donna is old. And she’s scared of Covid because she’s old.
If she can’t handle it she should retire. But instead, you have these old and scared people who have no regard for any other life but their own. Not that all the fear and strict policies will ultimately even make any significant impact anyway.
