They know something we don't know about the vaccine
UAB nurses refusing to clock in (live video)
- Thread starter Justin Time
- Start date
Define outbreak. Positive test, admitted to the hospital, ICU? ICU admissions and deaths are the measure but you know that already.
There is nothing wrong with the vaccine and nurses have taken the vaccine at higher rates than the general population. I am all about people making their own decisions but spreading misinformation is bull$hit.
I care about all 2,455 American soldiers that lost their life in Afghanistan and the 130 outside of Afghanistan. Also the soldiers who lost limbs, have brain trauma, etc.
Not sure why we’re only focused on the 13. Actually, I do know why and it’s all political. Which is sad.
A 20 year war that costs us $4.3 trillion, many US soldier’s lives, and almost crippled our country. BUT all anyone wants to talk about is the 13. So frustrating
Yep. The insidious death spiral of the travel nurse “solution”. What’s a hospital to do?
Could be true Buck, we literally have no idea right. Not that ive ever read that btw
As a Covid ICU nurse I totally support them. I can’t even begin to tell you how demanding, defeating, and exhausting it is to work in these conditions. Wearing a N95 for 13 hours, having to prone (turn) patients that weight well over 300+ lbs daily, relay constant bad news to family members and friends, code at LEAST two patients a day, seeing no improvement in patient’s conditions, calling the funeral home at least twice a week to come pick up a 30 to 50 year old who didn’t have to die, and the list just goes on and on. All this and some of these poor nurses aren’t making more than $25-28/hr. It’s pitiful. All the while the hospital “administration” is walking around in their 3-piece suit, never setting foot in the Covid unit to show support, sitting in a cushy office, and making a quarter mil a year. It’s sickening.

They should make it a state wide mandate for nurses to be vaxxed. Then, their leverage to quit is gone because they would have no where else to go.
That's unfortunate and I see this in my profession as well. Thanks for the hard work you do.
who are these nurses everyone knows who are refusing the vaccine? Every healthcare pro I know Dr/Nurse/NP/Hospital CEO is 100% for it and posting on social for it every day.
Doctors are ignoring/falsely reporting the data, but nurses are all over the truth?
Seems legit. After all, if you ask a nurse, they’ll tell you that physicians are idiots and nurses make the world go round.
We’re focused on the 13 because their deaths were the direct result of the incompetence of their superiors, and were completely avoidable.
Yore take is just as political as anyone’s.
No, it isn’t probable everybody has had Covid. If it was, our cases wouldn’t be as high. How can you watch what just happened in FL and the south and then think it’s probable that everybody has had it. The other variants weren’t near as contagious as delta. That being said, delta will give natural immunity to those not vaccinated over the next year imo. Natural immunity counts just like vaccines count imo. That’s why I think we will be at low deaths and hospitalizations sooner rather than later meaning the next 6-9 months.
You guys pick and choose your stats. Now do the US or UK etc. Israel is an outlier and has been for months. Here is recent info from England:
If they were concerned about taking Covid home, they would get the shot. You’re less likely to get Covid and you’re less likely to pass it on if you have the shot.
You have no idea what you’re talking about. Nurses around here start at like $18 an hr. Bham is highest paid starting around $23. I’m sure you think teachers are overpaid too.
The problem is that “we have no idea” yet it’s being presented as truth in order to create a narrative to influence the decisions of other people... I have no problem if an individual decided after viewing legit sources that “we have no idea” and chooses to refuse the vax, but it’s assholes who have decided their Reddit research projects qualify them to offer medical advice and impact strangers on tiktok who sadly lack the intelligence, desire, ability etc. to rely on or understand the difference between actual medical opinions vs shit that leads to dumbass troll threads on the pore board.
If the threshold for giving credence to amateur internet virologists is merely "we have no idea" if it has any basis in reality or is just some strangers hallucination, that's sad. Knowing that and still using it as the main factor in a decision that impacts our life and future is just insane.... Honestly, it's about as batshit crazy as selling all yore possessions, emptying the 401k, and quitting yore job because the Picasso of Crichton showed you the Amateur Sketch and "we have no idea" if it's true so let's buy an RV and spend all our money chasing rainbows in search of that damn leprechaun and his pot of gold.

Nursing and teaching are the only two jobs since the pandemic started that are difficult
Well, the ones that suck sure are and they are many in number. Worse is they can hardly be run off unless they bed a teenager. Otherwise they’re “tenured”.
Fire the morons who won’t get vaccinated. They’re exhausted dealing with dumb hicks who are sick because they didn’t get the vaccine.
Nurses --> COVID --> Vaccines --> Afghanistan --> Nurse Salaries --> Teacher Salaries --> Tenure
This thread just keeps giving. 😂
You come across as really dumb.
this number is bogus it is due to the CDC having medical institutions not report breakthrough cases. Also the timeframe if I remember correctly goes back January through April and most everybody was unvaccinated.
it’s a great PR number but it’s not applicable. Israel has one of the highest vaccination rates and is finding more vaccinated in hospitals than unvaccinated - as a percentage of the population and more symptomatic. There’s just a whole lot of information we aren’t getting.
some states are trying to force doctors not to prescribe ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine out. Even though both have studies coming out now which show significant benefits and advocacy. And since when is the state board ever interfered in the patient doctor relationship and told doctors they couldn’t do what’s in the patient’s best interest?
this is not how you run a pandemic, there’s more to it.
Some won't like the source for this article, but here is some data on breakthrough infections based on some U.S. locations data...
OP needs to rename it COFFEE SHOP ROUND TABLE
I’ll rule out St Vincents. Ascension has made the vaccine mandatory for all employees.
How many states have done that? I really don’t know. Regardless, Alabama ain’t leading the charge on that front, we both know that.
As do I. Why in the hell would you want to go to work every day unvaccinated yo see what potentially could happen to you? I would think seeing people in terrible condition everyday and watching them die would be a pretty big factor in my decision to get vaccinated. Knowing that I’d be around it for 8-12 hours a shift, I’d have to try to prevent myself from getting it.
The numbers here are not PR but reality. It isn't PR that is filling up the ICUs of our hospitals, but unvaccinated COVID patients. The reason they make up such a high percentage of those patients is that getting vaccinated makes it nearly an order of magnitude less likely to get very sick from COVID. While there is no reason to prohibit doctors from prescribing ivermectin or HCQ to patients, those meds are not the solution to this problem. The solution is vaccination. Whatever effect those meds may have is much, much less than that of the vaccines.
UAB’s numbers have been at about 15-20% vaxxed and hospitalized. They publish their numbers on insta.
good news is we seem to have peaked last week and began to decline. I believe this was the peak data. Rest are on their insta page
15% vaccinated in ICU. 20% of people on vents vaccinated. absolute yikes. taken in context with the vax rate of ~40%, even bigger yikes.
like i’ve said before, i’m for taking the vaccine and encourage people to get it. i’m not for alternative treatments like ivermectin and hcq, but that uab chart gonna do a sad on the people that have put the vaccines on a pedestal.
"In the vast majority of cases, vaccinated patients who are hospitalized are immunocompromised."
Haven’t you been skull dragged enough itt? Now you’re trying to latch onto uab? You already showed an article showing the entire state. The nationwide numbers are even better for the vaccinated. Stop being a moron.
