Illinois hospital responds after video seen of nurse at crowded Wisconsin bar
WGN ^ | 14 May 2020 | Dana Rebik

A hospital based in Illinois has responded after a video was seen of one of their nurses at a crowded Wisconsin bar after the state lifted their stay-at-home orders.

Crowds of people, most without masks, packed bars in Wisconsin hours after the state’s supreme court knocked down their stay-at-home order. Among the revelers was a nurse with ties to a local health organization.

I’d like to express my regret for not wearing a mask or practicing social dista...

Yeah, probably have to say guilty, but hey, she’s probably had a tough life in democratworld for the past couple months. I’m willing to cut her a hell of a lot of slack, and she didn’t do anything wrong in the first place.

And, in keeping with traditional Wisconsin bars, there is a Packer jacket and a “Miller Time” (headquarters in Milwaukee) sign in the background. And the electricity is still on. So something is still working on this madhouse we call the planet earth.

Or maybe nurse treats it all day long in the hospital understands a bit of epidemiology and her risk of serious illness weighed against her freedom and makes her own choices like an adult. Besides she has to wear a mask in the hospital which according to fearpers will keep her from spreading any virus to anyone else

Deserves repeating.

Besides, fearpers wear masks,gloves, goggles, raincoats, showercaps, go through Level 4 decontamination procedures before entering their homes or bringing anything inside, will be first in line for brand-new/unvetted vaccines, are ODing on Vit. D and zinc, and are among the 10% who said in a Miami newspaper poll they will isolate forever.

What are they so afraid of, then?

Or none of the above

There have been zero tests done to prove asymptomatic people shed enough of a viral load to cause illness. That was a load of crap by Fauci said to scare people

"Case closed."

That's not what her employer thinks.

Mary Beth Kingston says Advocate Aurora Health screens all employees before their shifts, and ensures they follow the appropriate safety measures on the job.

“We’ve also been working with education with our team members for what they can do to be safe once they leave our hospital walls and certainly we’ll be following up with individual nurses as needed,” Kingston said.

Advocate Aurora Health issued the following statement: “Given the ongoing education and safety measures we are fully committed to, we’re disappointed. The health and safety of our patients, team members and our community are our highest priorities. As businesses begin to reopen, it’s important we all to continue to practice safety measures that have been effective in stemming the spread including social distancing, thorough handwashing, staying at home when sick and wearing masks in public in accordance with local government guidance.”

Sometimes your job stays with you even after you leave the four walls of your place of employment.

I’d wager I’ve been outside more than anybody on FR starting from Day 1 of the Santa Clara County lockdown.

What I do has nothing to do with the right protocol for somebody in health care, though.

I’ll pass on licking down anybody. Well, I could make a few exceptions, I suppose.

...people shed enough of a viral load to cause illness...
____________________________________________________________

Lots of us shed lots of things.

I learned in a microbiology lab that I am a staph shedder. I ruined an entire batch of plates, had to wear a mask and redo them. Instructor was not upset.

I was 18. That was 60 years ago. No one in my family has contracted staph from me, ever.

And yes, I know staph is a bacterium.

Heck... My intense paranoia kept me from Face-Book from its very beginning... Likewise for twits, the CPUSA, etc...

In fact, I "lurked" on FR for several months before I was absolutely positively sure that FR wasn't just another Dzerzhinsky-type head fake...

In the dark days of the 1990's my view was that the Nation was a sinking ship... Then John threw us a life preserver...
April has always been a good month for me... Got married in April 1960 and it has happily lasted 60-years... Signed up to FR in April 1998 and it's still fun after 22-years...

Bacterium?

Have you ever hosted a referendum on breeding bacterium in your solarium? Using magnesium, rhodium, chromium, and selenium?

I’ve always wanted to do that, so if you ever do, let me know, you asymptomatic super staph spreader, you.

You need to change your Freeper handle. Maybe Surrender Our Freedom” is open.

It took me 5 1/2 years to find this place after you “original signers” populated it.

I hold you all in high regard. 22 years beating your head against a wall on the same website takes dedication, drive, and sticktoitiveness.

Much respect, sir.

I guess the only place to relax is in a crowded bar. Greta idea.

Yeah. You sit there at the bar, so drunk you can’t even focus on the pizza menu to decide if you want one or not.

You innocently look at some chick, wondering how it is that she can wear pants that tight and still be able to play darts. As you sit there with your mouth hanging open, brain working somewhat slowly due to ethanol poisoning, and wipe a little drool off your lower lip, her boyfriend gets all up in your face because you’ve been looking at his woman just a little too long.

What he doesn’t understand is that it took you that long just to comprehend that her dart-throwing form is all wrong. She’s leading with the wrong foot, and you were just thinking of offering some advice.

Enjoy in moderation. A free country is a good country.
