So when you give birth and have covid symptoms you're tested and put in a private room. Makes sense. You then get a bill in the mail for the private room 2 months later, lol.
twisted Healthcare system for sure
I got one of those "surprise out of network doctor" bills at an in network hospital once. bitches

So my uncle who spent the night in the hospital the other night still has a fever of 102°F (39°C) but is drinking fluids. All his other vitals are good though. His wife (~10 years younger than him; he's 66) and his daughter (17-18 years old) had only minor symptoms on Christmas Day and maybe the day after.
Oh and he also traveled to Tennessee to visit his older daughter (~40 y.o.) and her husband for Christmas. So now my cousin and her husband have also tested positive for COVID-19.
Here's the funny thing - my entire extended family on my mom's side usually gathers together for Christmas. My mom's side of the family is made up of educated Democrats from the northeast, so all family Christmas events were canceled this year. Had we not canceled them, there would be far more than two additional family members infected.
It is very easy to see how this virus spreads so quickly amongst uneducated white trash southerners that voted for Trump.

It's gotta suck not having guns while having a queen.
I got dose #2 of the Pfizer vaccine today. No ill effects at all from dose #1, we will see how the weekend goes.
My region is swimming in COVID currently. We have given up one of the pediatric wards to make more adult beds, and the adult medical ICU’s have expanded into some PACU’s and radiology procedure areas because we need more ICU capacity.
% positive tests in the COVID drive through testing sites was 42% yesterday.

I hope they all recover without any major problems.
In the Netherlands they are making a law, that gives the government more power in situations like a pandemic, because at this moment unelected mayor's are the ones with the power, handling the lockdowns locally and it's a bit of shit show.
In the first draft they tried to put in that they can search people's houses without there consent if they think that there are more than an x amount of people in there who are not part of the household, after some bad media they cut that part out.
This is idiotic those cops should be fired and charge with breaking and entering.
Again this Covid-19 is no joke people should be careful, but living in a police state is not something i would want.
I got my first dose Thursday. We also have "satellite " ICU beds.
I, along with others, am working 60 hours a week and we are still struggling.
Travel nursing companies are offering $10,000+ a week to join a state (CA) float pool. However, they want you to work 72 hours a week. I'm not sure I could do that and it be safe for my patients. If only I were a little younger.....
Oh, and we also have anaesthesiologists helping the docs cover ICU.
I don't know what that is.twisted Healthcare system for sure

Jesus.
you could go to an "in network" hospital (in regards to your insurance) and be treated by an "out of network" doctor without them telling you. so then when the bill comes, you are charged an arm and a leg
its bullsheet
Happened to me when my son was born. The neonatal doctor group connected with the unit was out of network. I had to argue for over a year because my insurance was willing to pay the whole amount, since my son was in respiratory distress when he was born and it’s not like there was any other options, but the group was not willing to accept it from my insurance because they kept saying “we don’t accept that insurance”, regardless of the fact that they were paying the entire amount. It was a clusterfuck. The insurance wound up sending me a check and I paid those stupid people. It’s been almost nine years since I paid them off and I’m still annoyed lol.
If you don’t understand the logical fallacies in that info graph, you’re more special than first thought.
agreed. misinformation is dangerous. its divides the people when the real problems are the politicians on both sides and the system as a whole
- masks make a difference
- some businesses would exacerbate the spread if left open
- locking down businesses and not publicly reimbursing business owners and employees as most countries do (other than the s-hole country of America) is bullshit
tl;dr - america sucks relative to most advanced nations. but yeh ... murica

Most Covid-19 survivors 'still suffer symptoms 6 months later' new study shows
Fatigue and muscle weakness are among the long term effects of coronavirus, with the majority of patients reporting issues months after their initially fall ill
3/4 of the Chinese men (median age 57) who had been hospitalized with COVID were still suffering symptoms 6 months later
You think Canada is a place to escape covid to? Lol

Don’t worry I educated him
life is give and take.
more like a stay-over for a year or two while I emigrate to somewhere else.
