Questions are good, they are what got us to a working vaccine. What I don't like is what the anti-vax crowd/ sympathizers are trying to do, confuse and misinform people all the way up to attacking hospital staff. 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe the vaccines fight covid better than ivermectin there seems to be no argument, even the ivermectin studies show that. I don't believe the vaccines are proven to be safer than ivermectin (side effects). Don't show up at our hospitals then. Stay home and take dewormer. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking about the people walking in the front door/(showing up for work). To be honest though I don't anything about the workers per se. If not to make sure you have a new clean mask what is purpose of replacing with when you walk in the front door, unless they are providing a new clean mask? It is more that people with cloth masks replace with a standardized mask and it has been clearly shown that these masks are better than the general cloth masks. That being said I did have to replace my better quality mask with one they had for my second shot but again how is the non medical person checking people in supposed to know that my mask is better quality and better fitted than the ones they are giving out especially when honesty has been a serious issue throughout this pandemic.

We are protecting the workers too, so the elderly have the help they need. When we get through this Covid pandemic, you need to volunteer to help in a senior home. Then you might understand the level of care these people need. 2 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw them do this for others wearing N95s. They also had a rapid testing station for staff. This idea that workers and people are being turned away is just twitter bs. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading this thread makes that evident. However, if there isn't a dissenting opinion covid thread somewhere else on here, I will express my opinions freely in here. If it offends you or upsets you, then you are likely perpetually offended by trivial things, like math. lol You're not a victim. You're a liar and an attention seeker that throws out bs statements and hides from the truth when people call you out on it. THAT is what we dislike. We LOVE opposing views.

I suspect that it may have to do as much with staffing shortages making it difficult for them to safely mobilize but don't forget this is the group that has been hit hardest by the pandemic and the group most likely to get poor immune response to vaccines because of age, medications and general compromise. I am not defending the lockdowns and think there needs to be some enrichment here for the seniors but it may have more to do with an inability to safely let them out of their rooms. Also, in Ontario certainly, I can attest that you don't end up in a nursing home without a reason. There would be a lot of dementia and significant other comorbidities amongst this population so it isn't as easy as open the door and let them walk around. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good to me. I don't support that either because that's an awful way to spend the last few months/years of your life. So I suggest or pose only those most at risk of potential death/hospitalization in the ICU be mandated to either lockdown or self isolate until the numbers come down. No issues there or? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As someone who spent many years as a kid and teenager volunteering in nursing homes, then provided volunteer care for them for a couple years as a young professional, I can attest it's the same here. Many of the residents wouldn't be able to leave safely without rigorous supervision. There is simply not enough resources to have that sort of supervision right now. In an ideal world their family's would be coming to pick them up to take them for walks or a lunch. But, unfortunately I can also confidently say in my years of experience that the majority of families are not doing that.

Your speaking like you know what's going on about this when I suspect you saw a post that your now echoing as a arguing point. People who live in those facilities are very at risk. If not from covid, it's a fall down a step. It's extremely easy for them to have injuries that would have them hospitalized, which again is the number one reason why we are implementing restrictions. Our healthcare system does not have the resources right now to handle unnecessary injuries. Is it sad, yes, entirely. But I can also tell you by years of experience that much of the existence in these homes isn't the best pre-covid.

Something might happen. Maybe if they signed a waiver the caretakers would have the courage to release them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
