The Healthcare at Mayo Clinic is some of the best in the world. We have been here for the last week and everyone has been amazing.
On our way out, stopped for a coffee. Sitting next to 8 nurses complaining about all of the anti-vax patients and how they hate helping them. They are talking like anyone without the Vax is less than human and deserves a lower tier of care. They talked about how they ignore patients.
Ugh disgusting.
We are at Step 4.
It seems to me that Step 6 is actually Step 3, and that we are already there.
I wonder of this hostile attitude leads to inferior treatment (which they seem to have admitted to), which leads to worse outcomes, including death? If so, this borders on criminality; at the very least, a violation of medical ethics.
How do these nurses feel about the 25% of their sistren who are also anti-”vax”. Or have they already been fired, so only true believers are left?
Mayo Clinic receives $1B in grants, loans
We now have a de facto NHS.
Clap for carers!
Sobering.
Someone should ask them about nosocomial infections of the coof.
Mayo Clinic has an interesting - and surprisingly balanced - political spectrum across its workforce.
Some say the miracle whip clinic is just as good.
I have seen it both ways.
Our GP is thinking about banning non vaxxed patients because “That is easier” than fighting about it.
Our Peds guy is quietly telling us NOT to vax because of heart inflammation risks.
I think it’s a reflection of the weekly covid meetings all the health care workers are required to attend. (I have friends who work at hospitals in Maryland and Oregon who both describe similar requirements and content to me.) I am wondering if the nurses you relate are facing similar indoctrination and don’t even realize how it has changed their thinking about their patients.
I think it is.
I agree - we are at step 4; but with a provision, that step 10 (gov’t denying things) seems to always apply, all along the way.
At my current age - but now referring to a dear old friend - he, in the 1980’s, was determined to go to law school, in order to learn what was necessary for him to challenge the bureaucratic, corrupt, school system of his county (in California).
I now feel the same way, I am sorry to report. That fellow lived an incredible life, fighting for our freedoms. Possibly, I might pick up his oar and start rowing in his memory.
Get my Ham on five, hold the Mayo.
