A Nashville nurse wrote an op-ed in the Scientific American detailing her experience as a nurse during the pandemic, saying the current wave of delta cases is much worse than what she experienced last year.

“It is so much worse this time. We all have so much less to give. We are still bearing the fresh and heavy grief of the past year and trying to find somewhere to put all this anger. But the patients don’t stop coming,” Kathryn Ivey, a critical care nurse at a medical center in Nashville, said.

“The numbers are higher now than they’ve ever been, the patients coming in younger and sicker. Death is at my shoulder again, as silent as he is relentless,” she said.

Where I live they authorities are forced to stack the dead like cord wood and burn them. Bags of lime are put out for public use. The acrid smoke is everywhere. What a site there are children wandering aimlessly. The horror.

Wow.

Tennessee current numbers are quite higher than previous waves. Here's where I go to see such things. It's a well-designed site. Coronavirus tracked: see how your country compares

You can select US States to compare or countries. And you can graph CASES or DEATHS. It's very flexible.

Death is at my shoulder again, as silent as he is relentless,” she said”
And it was a dark and stormy night.

Lol-my first thought ws well-Those words sound like something out of a fiction novel.

This type of story (overwhelmed so called medical "professionals") has been showing up in the MSM recently.

More 🐂💨💩 IMO.

Death is at my shoulder again, as silent as he is relentless,” she said.

He? Neil Gaiman would argue that Death is a female.
