Mandate vs optional?

Gloves optional, masks not allowed unless we're showing symptoms due to the shortage

Oooff

Byo mask?

I was in the billing office of a hospital today, off site from the main hospital, and they were rounding up masks from the dispensers near the door due to shortages and theft.

I don't care if I get it. No kids, elderly relatives hundreds of miles away, and I'm 31 and healthy. The issue is me contaminating a couple hundred people in a single day

You have to ask for a mask at the desk now, can't just grab one.

Yeah we keep them behind the counter now. Too many people were walking out the door with whole boxes.

there was actually a translated interview a few days ago

that indicated they were implementing a sort of triage

to that effect

So maybe it is really happening and not just early guidance

Well its crappy to think about but better than the split the baby approach leading to more dead.

I'm helping out with busy work in the ICU tomorrow so I might have more info in 24 hours

here you go

I question the wisdom of having the guy that sits in the seat at the front door also wander around the ICU while potentially contaminated but whatever

``Is there a written rule?
«At the moment, despite what I read, no. As a rule, even if I realize that it is a bad word, patients with serious cardiorespiratory pathologies, and people with severe coronary artery problems, are carefully evaluated, because they tolerate acute hypoxia poorly and have little chance of surviving the phase criticism ".

Nothing else?
"If a person between 80 and 95 has severe respiratory failure, you probably won't proceed. If he has a multi-organic failure of more than three vital organs, it means he has a one hundred percent mortality rate. He is now gone. »

Do you let him go?
"This is also a terrible sentence. But unfortunately it is true. We are not in a position to tempt what are called miracles. It is reality ». ``

That's not unusual. At a certain point even in the best conditions it's just cruel to put someone through that kind of intense care in their final moments

A lot of this is westerners realizing we're still mortal

Hard facts of life

Sounds easy to say, I may see them sooner than I would hope

Pension shortfall? What pension shortfall?

Right?

Somehow I can see greedy millennials licking their lips about a possible inheritance too.

Of course in some cases greedy boomers already reverse mortgaged the house so they can travel more or buy another timeshare.

Or a cruise. 😂😂😂

There are people still today going on cruise ships

I might know one if he didn't call it off in the last day or two.

one at work going next week. my plumber also said he was on one this week now, and going to vietnam for a wk with mates

said "didn't mind getting stuck os, would drink and have fun"

so I showed him 20mins of coronachan and scared the fuk outa him

I tried to warn my mom off from a business trip to Olympia, WA but she didn't think it was an Issue. Apparently didn't believe me that WA alone is probably going to look like Italy in two weeks.

Hopefully she can still get out of there on Friday like planned.

Thanks @Sq crcl

I meant thanks because we were just talking about that topic

common story, close to home too. I told my entire family at a reunion three weeks ago that this was coming and what to do. only my parents listened. cousins, brother, uncles... ignored. normies are just gonna normie every time. gah. gave up after that.

Obviously not thanks for giving us the wuhan. I blame you for that entirely.
