A staff occupational therapist at Southeast Nursing and Rehabilitation Center raised concerns to multiple supervisors that a fellow therapist had continued to work there despite possibly being exposed to COVID-19, according to text messages obtained by the KSAT 12 Defenders.
The staff occupational therapist resigned March 20, citing concerns over the nursing facility not requiring her co-worker to self-quarantine and instead having him continue to show up for shifts the entire week.
On March 31, a week and a half after she made her outcries, health officials confirmed a localized outbreak had occurred inside the facility.
Ten residents have died and more than 70 residents and staff members have tested positive for the deadly virus, according to the latest figures provided by San Antonio Metropolitan Health officials on Wednesday.
Health officials have not connected to the outbreak at the nursing facility to the therapist’s co-worker but the investigation remains ongoing.
“So after I finish today I won’t be back. I just found out that (Redacted)'s girlfriend is self isolating because of symptoms! I think the worst part is that I feel like since you knew you should have said something and the fact that we’re all out at risk because you guys kept it quiet is just unbelievable! The betrayal I feel is just enormous! Wow! Knowing how things are going and no one reported this!” the woman wrote to both her rehabilitation director and regional director of rehabilitation at Rehab Synergies, a company that contracts with Southeast Nursing to provide therapy services at the facility.
The rehabilitation director did not respond to the woman, while the regional director, identified as Beth Walters, wrote back apologizing that staff were not informed about the possible exposure.
Walters then shared with the woman CDC guidelines in effect at the time that said health care professionals, even after being exposed to a COVID-19 patient, could continue working if other options to cover staffing had been exhausted.
“Non symptomatic employees need to self monitor and continue to work,” wrote Walters.
“We had community transmission. We were a hot spot,” the occupational therapist told the Defenders this week, pointing out that community-spread cases of the deadly virus had already been identified by Metropolitan Health officials by the time she made her outcries.
She has asked the Defenders not to identify her because she hopes to one day work in the therapy field again.
get ready for the lawsuits
Quarantine, self isolation, whatever you want to call it...for that to actually work is like hitting the lottery. For it not to work is like not hitting the lottery...incredibly likely.
How many times do you think we’ll hit the lottery?
Ten days. Yup. That’s about right.
Just facilitated the herd immunity I assume....
(I am being sarcastic.)
Did the therapist report her concern to the county and state?
County and state seldom go beyond recommendations from on high. Neither do healthcare facilities.
There is a big difference between having the potentially exposed worker keep working in a setting where the virus already exists and one where it does not.
Birx, Fouci, Gates, WHO, CDC, NIH, CCP, etc, etc... need maximum impact, to take down the economy, take down Trump, and to reestablish control of the trajectory toward centralized global socialist governance control.
CDC and the Gates global HIV bio engineering swarm, (which includes nearly the entire Birx family working for Gates and the WHO, and HRC’s inside wrecking ball Fouci, are the ones who have made sure the CDC incorporate horrific written medical standards, which actually spread CV-19, and increase the likelihood of severely and death.
These include counting non-determined/tested deaths, non-CV19 kit tested triage clinical determinations in big hospitals, little to no attention paid to pre-existing records and segregation, allowing infected staff to continue working, and now using the FedGov to order all Hydroxychloroquin and Azythromycin off the market.

This is big centralized government socialist medical policy, forcing aggregation and prescription for these known “therapies” from stockpiled hospitals only.
These CDC policies rip away highly qualified MD medical diagnosis and pre-hospital care, from physicians who already know their patients, and rips from frontline doctors and clinics nationwide, forcing exponential increases in very late term CV-19 treatment (which is oft deadly), while forcing sick patients into increasingly inefficient centralized hospital treatment!
They have done all these things and more, to create as big of a sensational mess as possible.
This is already entirely criminal!
And we aren’t even getting into the fact that Gates has funded all three Wuhan “bio-engineering” labs, as well as Russian bio labs, including the Gorky-400/”Wuhan switch” lab (connected to the Chinese Wuhan P4 labs since at least 1995), which was thoroughly destroyed by fire in Russia in September 2019, less than one month before the CV-19 “Wuhan” outbreak in October 2019.
Russia Bio Weapons Lab explosion, fire, destruction — September 2019
Which is likely tied to what NIH and Indian bio-engineers have been looking at —
(from the link, Dr. Cottrel did get in a bit of trouble from his CV-19 disclosure)
As well, multiple Gates funded orgs and bio labs have been working on a plan to “vaccinate” the masses with essentially a biometric tag for some time.
These are the sharks in the water surrounding President Trump daily!
