My impression is that ICU nurses have the lowest workload but the most frequent crises. You can’t deal with three crashing patients at once. Sort of like fighter jock vs infantryman.
Yep.
And that’s why they are pushing back.
Anyone that worked all last year during the pandemic in critical jobs (firefighter, police, medical, infrastructure, defense, military) have every right to be mad as h3ll.
Vaccine mandates are magic.
They make nurses disappear!
A manufactured crisis. Get the vax or get sacked. Oh dear, we have a nurse shortage.
We are at the intersection of dumb and evil.

So well said !
intersection of dumb and evil.
Pitch perfect.
And there aren't many who can handle the intense stress.
New cases here are dropping off a cliff. I wonder if this is exactly what the Brits experienced, larges increases and then over in a month: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#trends_dailycases
CA had a serious nursing shortage before COVID. In fact, my daughter was an RN and changed careers before COVID to gain some life-work balance. Many of her peers did the same. Then COVID caused many more to quit.
Travelling nurses are making some huge money right now. Sometimes more than the MDs they work with. Some Nurses are quitting their jobs to cash in on some short term money.
Only if you can send them back after 15 years. After that they become Americanized and are not as pretty or deferential.
Believe me, I know from personal experience.
If there are no nurses, how will illegal aliens get free emergency room when their kids get the sniffles?
Exactly. Now, if the jab actually stopped the spread, it MIGHT be worth considering. But you can still get it, spread it and get sick.
Probably.
Safe and Effective is literally Killing People!!
We all know how to solve this.
Secession.
I be dam if anyone with any sense would want to be dragged down the hole by a bunch of useless whores and assholes that inhabit the nor loch-Washington DC.
Would you let a person who cant control themselves drag you down into financial and moral ruin?
My wife, a supervising RN here in California, has some insight on the shortage. Nursing schools from public colleges and universities have so few openings, applicants that have 4.0 GPAs often have to wait 2-3 years and hope for an opening. The schools have never responded to the demand. My wife has never had her nursing positions completely filled since becoming supervisor. Also, there is a major backlog in RN licensing applications that the Board of Registered Nursing has not processed. A family member got her nursing degree in May and it still waiting for her RN license application to be processed.

Because the government guarantees payment and it doesn’t matter to them whether graduates have skills to earn money.

That sounds like something that would happen in the Soviet Union.
I wonder why?
🤔
And apparently having a higher viral load before showing symptoms than if they were unvaxxed.
Just what we need. Super spreader healthcare providers taking care of already compromised individuals in the hospital.
Wow
