CLEVELAND, Ohio — A state representative from Northeast Ohio is warning of increased attacks on healthcare workers by people related to patients who have not been vaccinated against the COVID-19 coronavirus, calling the situation “insane.”
In a tweet sent out Tuesday, Rep. Casey Weinstein, a Democrat from Summit County, says he was told by an unspecified hospital CEO that hospital workers are facing an increasing number of attacks during the COVID crisis.
‘Was just briefed by a major hospital network CEO,” Weinstein writes. “It’s not just that they’re beyond capacity. The families of their unvaccinated patients are ATTACKING caregivers for not giving them the ‘right’ meds and (quack) treatments.
Weinstein claims in the tweet there are 25 incidents each day. “This. Is. INSANE,” he writes.
In a second tweet, Weinstein says it’s important to treat hospital workers with respect as another coronavirus surge puts increased stress on healthcare providers.
“They are our last line of defense!” Weinstein writes.
There have been increased reports across the nation of violence toward healthcare workers. ABC News reports that a nurse testified before a Georgia Senate study committee in September that she was attacked by a patient so severely she ended up in the ER of her own hospital.
Cox Medical Center Branson in Missouri has issued panic buttons to healthcare workers because of a three-time increase in assaults on healthcare workers. Experts say many incidents of violence are not reported, ABC News reports.
“A year ago, we’re healthcare heroes and everybody’s clapping for us,” Dr. Stu Coffman, a Dallas-based emergency room physician, tells PBS News Hour. “And now we’re being in some areas harassed and disbelieved and ridiculed for what we’re trying to do, which is just depressing and frustrating.”
How can so many people on death’s door attack anyone?
Yah right. What a bunch of bs.
…. It happening
“Democrat from Summit County, says”
“he was told by an unspecified hospital CEO”
… just an othering attack
Weinstein = Drama Queen
Akron is in Summit County.
“...not giving them the ‘right’ meds and (quack) treatments.”
Why not, I mean Joe told us it’s the season of death for us unvaccinated. So if we’re going to leave this earth anyway..
Yes. When my doctor started pushing the Foucci bs, and dismissed any early preventive treatment including vitamins, I got the urge to knock him down.
Monoclonal antibodies should be given early for maximum effectiveness.
NYC requires a positive Covid test to get antibody treatment. This is probably the case in most places.
OHio requires a prescription from a doctor
Both sides have their share of screwball extremists, but that is not likely to mean a big crime wave.
Videos of blurred faces attacking Drs, or 25 attacks per day is a lie.
There was time the medical professionals would throw the kitchen sink at stubborn illnesses. Off-label, over dosage, experimental and I’m out of ideas but maybe this will work all were in play.
I’m the type that hates defeat and will work to fix something beyond what most consider reasonable. My motto is if I can’t fix it it can’t be fixed. I want that from my doctor.
I’m sure this post is a waste of time with you, but monoclonal antibodies, while they work great are very expensive and time consuming to manufacture. As I understand they culture it in mice then have to draw out mouse blood.
The first treatment should be Ivermectin. It’s fast, cheap, available and very effective
It’s happening...
Do you believe everything you read?
Trust but verify.
If there’s nosocomial spread of the coof by vaxxed employee superspreaders, the people must at risk in a hospital are the patients.
...most at risk...
And isn’t it interesting that we never hear anything about nosocomial spread.
