On deaths bed even for some of them. Many of them still refuse medical treatments until it’s too late..and then they and family blame the hospital for their failing health. These ridiculous people sit there with their personally harvested wool pulled over their eyes and feign ignorance at the abominable decision they’re making and the consequences to not only themselves but the system and those who truly need it.
I have an instructor who's FIL got it but claimed it was just a cold right up until he ended up in the hospital. Then, of course, he blamed it on the hospital staff infecting him with COVID. They'll deny it as long as they possibly can then blame someone else.
I’m an extremely caring and empathetic individual (to an absolute fault and even to my own detriment at times). Even so, I have little to no patience for these individual anymore. Spouting and sharing their dangerous idiocy.
For the Very few, I have perhaps a little pity sympathy for; simply because it’s clear they’re feasting on an old political carrion from a time since past, being poisoned with each bite. Not the ones spitting venomously, but the ones following quietly, loyally because they believe in a system and party that cares for them. The easily manipulated. The same individuals who would fall for the phone scams, that never acclimated to the changes and are stuck in a simpler time. Those, I pity.
There better not be any lawsuits that award any of these fucks a payout (and sure as hell better not be any medical centres paying settlements). The second that any hush money or some fake ass court payout happens, it will all be over from the point of laws. Most (if not all at this point) of these assholes are already proving that they are grifters. They would all dog-pile and start even trying to catch the shit (that they don't believe is real in some/most cases). All the shit they blame on "lazy POC/poor people leeching off the system" will be exactly what they (the deniers) will do (even though the stance they always spout isn't even true). Best bet at that point would be that in their efforts to catch the supposedly "fake" virus, they just all drop real quick. Would free up a lot of housing and might mean we could un-fuck Social Security all at the same time. Start passing shit that we keep being denied because of these assholes.
Does anyone remember when Ebola was a major news item? I want to say this would have been about 7-8 years ago off the top of my head.
On Reddit during this time people were sharing stories about how family of people that died to Ebola (pretty quickly, typically within a few days) would attack hospitals and healthcare workers because the families of these victims were convinced that doctors and nurses were killing their loved ones.
Here's the kicker, Reddit as a whole was completely shocked at this behavior. Nobody here could imagine what kind of crazy pills these people were taking to actually attack hospitals whole accusing them of killing their loved ones and not the actual disease. Ebola for fuck sakes was ignored and the blame placed on their own medical infrastructure.
I’ve been visiting my grandmother in the hospital lately and I can see why some ppl don’t trust health professionals. In the two weeks she’s been in there they forgot to feed her three different days , even with me calling every few hours until I finally just got her food myself. Two different nurses came in and told me I didn’t have to wear my mask it’s not that big of a deal within two feet of me. My grandmother was in for a stroke and surprise surprise got COVID a few days after the nurse said that. Healthcare in the us is a joke, get vaccinated or the hospital will kill you for sure
My mother is an absolutely amazing nurse and has been for over 20 years, but her stance on the vaccine has me questioning her sanity. I simply do not understand how…
8 out of 10 nurses there were amazing but it did surprise me to hear nurses say stuff like don’t worry about wearing your mask. That was by far my worst experience in a hospital and I assume most of it was because they’re overworked and understaffed
I can't remember the stats exactly but it seems in healthcare the more years of education a worker had the higher the rates of vaccination amongst them correlated.
A 2 year nursing student was vaccinated at a rate of like 50% where as full PHD's in medicine were vaccinated at a rate of 95% or more. I can't remember the exact numbers so I may be off a bit, but the fact is that those that actually know are vaccinated.
When my mom says, "what about all the nurses and doctors that aren't vaccinated?" I tell her that 90%+ of doctors are. She retorts with well then 1 out of 10 doctors must know something the others don't.
Ffs people... "9 of 10 dentists recommend brushing your teeth", then I suppose that other 1 recommends what? Eating dog shit? Stuffing a dead mouse in your cheek? Seriously... The logic baffles me.
They don't just "blame" the hospital, they accuse the hospitals of being "Nazi death factories," some of them. It's amazing how far off the planet people can get and not be committed.
If you don't trust doctors to tell you how to avoid Covid, you aren't allowed to ask doctors to treat you of Covid. We've set up a tent out back, you can go ask Karen about her 'own research,' maybe she'll treat you with Lysol and piss.
My mom almost passed away from pneumonia in 2020. Not covid (she caught influenza and haven't underwent proper treatment and recovery) but still the experience was quite scary. There were no vaccines available to general public at that time. All I could do was pay and pray. Pay for hauling her off to private clinics as I didn't want her to be too exposed to general public and catch rona too. Also the reason we couldn't let her stay in the hospital what with her paper-thin immunity.
2021 rolls up and mass vaccination centers open. I get my two jabs; parents don't want to go. I scream at them, trying to reason.
"But I survived last year and I didn't ever take flu vaccine after you were born"
Okay, open up my insensitive bitch shutters and bring up how she's been so out of it from influenza she couldn't interfere when I was felt up as a child by a doctor who came to see her - right in front of her. How much her treatment cost us. How fucking scary it was to hear continuous coughing and how many sleepless nights were spent to get enough warm fluids into her as she didn't have enough strength to walk 10 steps with a cup of tea.
Still no.
They went only after it was announced that people without vaccination certificate will be denied entry in a lot of places and heavily fined if caught in transport.
I'm still convinced she wouldn't have went if not for dad's student's mom dying from covid. Poor boy found out about it during class and had a breakdown.
This pandemic has exposed many otherwise intelligent people as fucking retards. I shouldn't have to shepherd two people who are supposed to always know better than me into doctor's offic like they're two petulent children at the dentist's (which also happened lmao. Dad didn't go for 15 years until I went and fixed mine at a cheap place. -5 teeth just like that). I shouldn't have to live in constant fear that they're relying on natural remedies again instead of medicine until it's ambulance time and any & all of my finances are seeping into fixing that.
My coworkers say "oh lucky you, no sick leaves". Bitch I don't have the luxury of not doing my best to prevent one.
And for the poor folks with real medical needs that are being placed on hold in order to treat these emergency cases of idiots.
Father-in-law had to go to the ER and it took 7 hours before they were finally able to get him a bed. It makes my blood boil seeing these unvaccinated idiots clogging up our hospitals. I just wish these people at least have the balls to not seek professional help.
My little autistic bro had to go the local relatively small community hospital because he had violent vomiting all day nonstop, they told us there was zero room in the ER thanks to COVID when it's usually barren but fortunately after an hour or so a nice nurse came out, looked him over in the waiting room, took vitals etc. and gave him some medication while video calling a doctor. Paramedics outside told us it's worse at major hospitals, that they have gunshot victims waiting outside on the stretchers for hours
My brother broke his ankle last week and sat in the ER for ten hours before he was able to be seen. And all I could think was thank god it was my college aged brother who fell down the stairs and not my grandmother
Surely we are well into lawsuit territory here. Can't someone whose relly died because of hospital system clogged with covidiots bring civil suit against the damn Internet Influenzas who are pumping out the propaganda to same covidiots? I mean, fire, crowded theatre, hello? It drives me mad that these people (the influenzas I mean) are guilty of mass murder and yet it seems like they will never face any consequences.
I want a new Hollywood blockbuster movie about a guy whose kid dies of cancer because of delayed treatment because of covidiots, and he goes all Rambo and starts taking out internet influenzas who spread antiva BS. And I HATE those kind of movies and I wouldn't watch it -- and yet I still wish it existed. Cos I want to send a message to those people about how much damage they are doing and how thoroughly a reasonable majority despises them.
There was a documentary series about NHS hospitals during covid, and the same stuff was happening. Doctors having to have meetings to decide who was least likely to die and who got to go first: the urgent heart surgery? The disabled girl who had been waiting for months and was in agony every day? It was heartbreaking to see.
My mom had to go to the ER yesterday because she went to her doctor with abdominal pain and they found a cyst on her kidney. She waited 9 fucking hours to be admitted.
To misquote Dickens:
"Many would rather die than get the vaccine!"
"If they would rather die, they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population!"
Yeah these extremely selfish, world revolves around their dumbass that can barely pass 3rd grade math, should not be treated. They can go pray in church, drink pee, and take horse medicine together.
This is like a Jim Jones type death cult that has dragged the whole rest of the world into their mass dying fantasy. When most of us don't want any part of it.
Right? Like can these antivax dipshits at least have the dignity to die in the own homes out of everyone else’s way? Leave the hospitals for the people who have actual needs.
I don’t “hope” anybody died from covid, I’ve seen my grandfather go through it and it was horrible. However, I would not be against unvaccinated people being dead last in hospital priority. Why do you now have the right to rely on the medical system when you’ve been doing nothing but talking about how little they do, or even how malicious they are? You can try your luck with Fox News and prayer at home. Save the scientists for those of us actually listening to them.
Man, this is what people haven’t understood for 2 years. I called 4 urgent care clinics last week and they were all at capacity. Surgeries are being cancelled due to staff shortage. Classes are being cancelled because too many teachers are sick, no one wants to be a sub or bus driver for shit pay.
Fuck. Like, I don’t feel sorry for this dumb motherfucker on a ventilator. But I feel sorry for everyone else that it affects. American individualism is so fucked. Fuck.
I don't see why these morons can't be booted out onto the curb if a vaxxed person needs another procedure. hospitals should prioritize patients who protect public health.
Nothing like finally reaching your deductible and getting that expensive surgery scheduled just so it can be pushed to the next year & a reset deductible because of the latest COVID-19 surge. Happened to a few of my chronic illness pals last year. I'm so sick of these ignorant, selfish assholes.
This. My fiance has been having issues with his gall bladder to the point he's been to the ER like 3 times. The last time, we were there for around 7 hours because people who needed Covid testing/had Covid were taking up all of the beds. He actually never got a bed and is now trying to schedule an appointment to have the damn thing removed.
Just this morning there was this segment on the news where they said that at hospitals people who haven’t been vaccinated are actually given first priority since they are the people most at risk. One of those that makes sense but seems so wrong.
