How can a hospital be sued for being at greater than capacity? What would you like us to do?

We are trying our best with emergencies — we dont turn anyone away so I think there is probably more here than meets the eye, but we are running at far above capacity — the toll on medical staff and nursing is inhuman.

There is more to this story than meets the eye — but the hospitals are running at more than full at least in the southeast region. I am sorry y’all dont like this and blame us for it — and yes — it continues to be >99% unvaccinated in the hospital and 100% UNVACCINATED in CRITICAL CARE.

Are the hospitals still being paid by Uncle Sam to treat COVID patients in house? There’s a 10 BILLION dollar pot of money being shared by 1,000 hospitals. Is your hospital one of them? Great way to pay the indigent care costs, isn’t it?

“>99% unvaccinated in the hospital and 100% UNVACCINATED in CRITICAL CARE.”

I don’t believe you.

Everywhere else in the world the seriously ill are 70% or higher vaccinated.

Perhaps you think you are serving some higher purpose with those lies.

See post 3.

Are you also going to try to gaslight us and tell us that surgical suites or outpatient surgery facilities are also filled with Covid patients and that’s why they couldn’t do emergency surgery?

Not buying what you’re selling..

100% Bullsh!t. The hospital beds are not 100% capacity. The ER beds are. There is sero excuse for a surgeon to not see this man, and operate on him. Its a relatively easy procedure. My sister had it. A surgeon cant help a COVID patent. I’m betting the issue was with a VA hospital.

First off, everyone is un-vaccinated. It is NOT a vaccine. If the people pushing this want to have a reasonable discussion they need to stop lying about what it is.

I am skeptical of the assertion that all these victims are the un-Jabbed. Why? We have been lied to so much thus far I take nothing from the Jab crowd at face value.

At my wife's hospital, there are staffing shortages due to their mandated vaccination. People have left. Also, vaccinated staff have tested positive for Covid and are sidelined. Elective surgeries that require hospitization are canceled.

They are trying to lure travel nurses at $2500 a week. Bottom line is that this has been mismanaged. Also note, that this hospital often runs at capacity or over capacity regardless of Covid.

Yup, the toll is so bad they're firing a bunch of staff. Right.

You idiots could start by not mandating a useless vaxx which is causing a nurse shortage which in turn causes a shortage in beds.

I do not believe you, and although I live in Nevada, I am in an EXCELLENT position to know exactly what is going in a number of large southern hospitals.
