    This will equate to me being gleeful that it’s not a treatment in that other thread, no doubt.

      I’ve been going there quite a bit- popping in early morning to get a few things and avoid hoarding. They’ve been sterilizing self checkouts after every person and also doing the carts

        So Canada’s bill is offering 2k per month for 4 months for people who’ve lost their jobs. Turns out they also have health care in the meantime

          My wife’s job failed to notify her that one of the people she came into contact with was moved to medical floor and is now a person under investigation for covid. But they apparently notified three other patents who were discharged. The person was moved on Monday. She had concerns and voiced them on Saturday. The doctors apparently cleared the person.

          WHEN ARE WE GOING TO STOP WAITING FOR FIFTY SYMPTOMS!? If you have one, you have COVID until your test is negative. Jfc.

              JFC. Fingers crossed she doesn't have it.

              I'm basically pretending I do have it, just in case I am one of the lucky ones who has it and is asymptomatic.

                I really hope you can come to look at your decision as respectable. It isn't a shameful decision. Do what you can, with what you have, without becoming a statistic yourself. The best that 99.9% of us can do is literally sit on our *** for the next two weeks and don't make the problem worse.

                Those that are coming out of retirement certainly are heroes. But at the same time, once you get to a certain age or have any of a number of risk categories, you're less likely to be able to just recover at home and instead become a consumer of resources.

                You have a good heart and you shouldn't beat yourself up.
                You know, that is a ridiculously obvious point that I never thought of. Thanks. I have always been one of those who gave before being asked but the way things are going I definitely would be a statistic.

                Had to deal with the hospital and public health folk the last few days re uncle les. Some observations

                -public health there is doing things the way we were taught 4 decades ago. Tedious fact finding to identify target person, contacts, where they had been etc. The thing that is not right is there seems to be no system in place currently to talk to the actual patient first. They called me, multiple States away, to collect info. I actually had the info because my old training kicked in and I had asked questions out of habit. I am pretty sure the amount of info I had was unusual. They talked to uncle les today- 4 days in.

                -the hospital staff is wonderful but again the system is crazy. I got a call from a case manager today asking particulars. uncle les is in his 80s but cognizant, extremely active, still does fill in organ for multiple churches, sings in at least one choir, is very social and visits. THere is no question of his mental status yet- the CM called me. They are not meeting with the patients on the isolation floors at all. Total disconnect. Once again, I did the thing my training taught me to do but no idea how things would have gone if I didn't have that training.

                -there is no true system or plan. The woman was totally honest with me and told me they are learning as they go- protocols are not just a bit fluid- they are changing more than they are the same. They are doing what they can to be safe but they have no idea what to do with the people who have tested positive and currently no defined protocol about when discharge cold be allowed or even if they would allow it home depending on bed availability.

                          I know they are wiping things down but from what I am seeing things need to stay wet for a long time for that to work- so basically they are wiping, it is drying quickly and then next person has a false sense it is clean. I know someone, in one of the threads commented on cleaning stuff. Anyone have a thought?

                          Poop. Sorry to hear that!

                          There seems to be a lot of lousy communication re exposure. lilnsl works in a place that has an identified case but also one that wasn't able to be tested. He knows this through the grapevine but has rec'd zero official communication from either the store or public health. Pretty sure they got the result 2 days ago but then news leaked today.

                              Even the rest of the South laughs at Mississippi, so it's totally on-brand.

                                Jesus ****ing Christ. My wife isn’t allowed to wear a mask because “it’s a waste of PPE” and no one was diagnosed on her unit. Patients had to have a temp above 100 and another symptom to even be evaluated. And headaches, loss of smell/taste, and GI weren’t even included.

                                HELLLO!!!! EHAT A FUNCH OF ****ups runing that hospital.

                                Oh my god I’m so seething angry. I’m just boiling over.
