There were reasons why that facility was hit hard... almost none of them to do with the quality of care offered there or the fine people in charge or the employees. But over the next year my innitial fears turned out to be mostly unfounded. During bad flu years it is not uncommon for a large care facility to lose dozens of sick elderly patients. Changes were made in the way that the data was collected, and intentionally skewed this year. These changes were unprecedented.
“Several times more lethal and deadly than the flu” and “several times more infectious” is nothing but a joke at this point. It takes a hell of a lot of jiggering with the numbers to get there and I am just going to say it outright... if I said something like that with my personal and professional experience to my friends and associates they would call me a liar. And I would know that they were correct. They would see right through me and wonder what caused me to lie to their faces.
I know that you and others have been fear mongering for more than a year now and it is very difficult for you to now give it up. But sooner or later you are going to have to either give it up or adopt a new pathogen to fret about because this one has just about played itself out. In professional circles it is beginning to become a joke.
RER: I know that you and others have been fear mongering for more than a year now
Excuse me... have you seen my hundreds of posts in the past and today? Point out to me where I have been fear mongering.
I am simply telling you MY EXPERIENCE. I would have to lie to myself to disbelieve what I ACTUALLY SEE.
