As COVID patients pack Colorado hospitals, anger grows against the unvaccinated
NPR ^ | 12/14/21

Posted on 12/14/2021 4:33:21 PM PST by BusterDog

In Colorado, there is a backlash from people who can't get into hospitals because they are full of unvaccinated COVID-19 patients. Administrators say facilities "are on the verge of collapse."

Probably crappy pay at that hospital. I was inpatient this week in W.Central FL. A bunch of nurses were ‘travelling nurses’. I chatted with one from PA and one from OR but there were many more. The RNs are being paid $6,000 per week as a travelling nurse. IMO most nurses leave and do the travelling nurse schtick.

Total lie. I live in Colorado, and my daughter in law is VP of finance for one of the largest healthcare/hospital consortiums in the state. Overheard her on a Zoom call running down the COVID patient totals (vaxxed and unvaxxed, combined) in various hospitals. All were in the single digits.

Apparently not the unvaxxed going to the hospital. I you’re vaccinated, you’re saved! /S

Why would "the vaccinated" need a hospital in the first place? They are, after all, vaccinated, and the vaccines are 100% effective. And even if the vaccinated do get a "breakthrough" case of COVID, it is far less severe than if you are vaccinated.

Mainly because hospitals all over are saying the same thing. It’s a coordinated message, but if you follow the stats the truth doesn’t match what they’re saying. You need to look closely though.

‘’that ratchets up up the difficulty for providers’’.

No s**t Sherlock. My hospital tried that with the nursing staff and a bunch of them quit and went to work elsewhere, one nurse told me at the height of this thing, “I'm done, I've had enough’’.

Hospitals could do with dumping some dead weight.

Like ‘’diversity coordinators''. They're not exactly essential personnel.

The way daylight savings time makes each day actually longer than 24 hours?

Colorado and the federal CMS requires death jabs of healthcare workers so many of them have quit. That has lead to shutdowns of services across healthcare in Colorado.

Colorado is also playing the propaganda game: The mentally ill homosexual governor Polis is claiming he isn’t making mask mandates as the ‘crisis is over’, but he is demanding counties and cities do it instead.

The hospitals are marking everyone as unvaccinated in order to put out this ridiculous statement to try to get the people to hate the unvaccinated.

“The RNs are being paid $6,000 per week as a travelling nurse. IMO most nurses leave and do the travelling nurse schtick.”

You would be correct. Fastaff/US Nursing is doing a bazillion dollars in travel nursing. As hospitals cut unvaccinated nurses, other hospitals are picking them up. Pay for a travel nurses centers at about $120/hour with bonuses ($5,000-$10,000 for completing a 3-6 month contract) and overtime too.

First off. I do not believe the story.
Second. How can facilities be “on the verge of collapse?” It is not as if there wasn’t a massive increase of equipment and materials for hospitals under Trump. Where did it all go? Why isn’t the governor calling other states for equipment. Why? Because the story is bullcrap with no other purpose then to shame the unclean untermench unvaccinated.... NPR is propaganda. But give them money and you get a cool totebag to show off you love NPR.

And how many of the so-called “vaccinated” are spreading the Chinese virus?

And how many of the so-called “vaccinated” are dying from the clot shot?

Half the state’s hospitals anticipate a staffing shortage in the next week.

Why would they anticipate a staffing shortage? What will change in a week? (I can bet NPR does not examine this question closely).

This article sounds like a pathetic attempt to blame the unvaccinated for the hospitals’ self-inflicted wound of terminating non-vaxxed employees.

Could be end of year vacation week(s.) January could see huge numbers of retirements as people take their 2022 vacation time and then collect pensions as well.

A lot of people wait until January to leave a job in order to get the extra pay.

It doesn’t look to me like hospital capacity is busting at the seems.
