ecosophia | Open (More or Less) Post on Covid 75

As we proceed through the second year of these open posts, it's pretty clear that the official narrative is cracking as the toll of deaths and injuries from the Covid vaccines rises steadily and the vaccines themselves demonstrate their total uselessness at preventing Covid infection or transmission. It's still important to keep watch over the mis-, mal- and nonfeasance of our self-proclaimed health gruppenfuehrers, and the disastrous results of the Covid mania, but I think it's also time to begin thinking about what might be possible as the existing medical industry reels under the impact of its own self-inflicted injuries.

So it's time for another open post. The rules are the same as before:

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here.

3. If you plan on using rent-a-troll derailing or disruption tactics, please go away. I'm quite familiar with the standard tactics used by troll farms to disrupt online forums, and am ready, willing, and able -- and in fact quite eager -- to ban people permanently for engaging in them here. Oh, and I also lurk on other Covid-19 vaccine skeptic blogs, so I'm likely to notice when the same posts are showing up on more than one venue.

4. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. Also, please don't drag in current quarrels about sex, race, religious, etc. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules.

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Hello JMG and fellow commenters,

as somebody who works in the medical industry (on the supply side) I have the opportunity to visit hospitals and doctors on a regular basis. Here are a few key facts:

- Around here hospitals need an occupancy rate of 90% to make a profit
- For each station there is a chief doctor, 2 or 3 senior doctors, regular doctors, a head nurse and the nursing staff
- Each station is big enough that a patient sees the doctor who treats him 2 or 3 times a day, the doctor makes note of the progress (or the general condition) and adjusts the therapy plan when necessary (this was pre-pandemic)

Now in year 2 of the pandemic the situation of general hospitals is dire. The system as a whole works now on triage in some cases because quite frequently the most engaged people have left their job due to vaccine mandates and other sorts of administrative measures.

Last week I visited a General Hospital, specifically a Covid Station. I installed some appliances and I was assisted by the lab technician. Before the pandemic a doctor would visit and look at the new gadgets. I noticed that the station as a whole felt strange. The technician told me that the whole hospital is now on emergency mode. They can't fill up the required medical positions anymore.
A senior doctor now has to supervise 2 stations (before 2 senior doctors oversaw one station). These working conditions put a strain on the staff and the doctors who have remained are on the brink of burning out. Needless to say that the patients get a sub-optimal treatment due to the shortage of qualified staff.

This is in contrast to specialized hospitals where there is no such shortage (yet) and the conditions are more or less the same as pre covid. I suspect the situation is the same all over the Western World which is not talked about in the media.

The situation is pretty bad and I got the impression to better get not sick.

Best wishes for all readers, commenters. Keep up the excellent work.

Thaank you very much for this report, I really appreciate it. Yep, the MSM has gone silent. These comments sections (also those on some of the the substacks) have become very importrant sources of news now.

Would you mind indicating what kind of supply work you do for the hospitals. I’m interested in pursuing that kind of work.

I install MRTs and lab equipment (for blood analysis). However, I had to go to university to get a degree in Medical Engineering. There are other jobs that don't require an academic degree, like installing the pipes for an MRT which is done by a HVAC guy who has special qualifications for dealing with cold gases.

Thank you! I have a BA in Music from my youth, and recently changed gears shortly before the pandemic and acquired an AS in Ultrasound (along with certs in Vascular Ultrasound and Echocardiography).

For a variety of reasons I’ve lost most of my interest in that field. (I’m more of a geek and not a people person, plus I like the idea of traveling to different sites and not being stuck in one location)

Could you give me a general idea of what would be good options for someone like me, such as particular positions or required additional schooling for your field? I don’t mind going back to school. Thanks!

I'm at a community hospital owned by Steward, a large national outfit, #2 I think. At one point they were getting rid of PAs, physicians assistants, and NPs, nurse practioners, for MDs. Now we have 3rd world visa MDs overseeing inadequate Pas and NPs over the phone from other parts of, or outside the hospital, in Massachusetts, from as far away as Texas, by phone or video link. One nurse was offered doubletime plus $300 to work a shift at another hospital that was short staffed. Nurses are taking these shifts up to a point, but are so understaffed and overworked on these shifts that the guilt and burnout isn't worth it after just a few of them.

I started out giving each patient the time they needed. Soon I was 'balancing' the needs of the current patient against my need to provide for all my patients. I am now short changing each patient I see. I am guilty. I am.

It's all over the news here that nurses from two NYC hospitals are striking over staffing issues. Essentially they want a guarantee in their contract that the hospitals will hire more nurses, PAs, MDs etc., enough to adequately staff the facilities.

The hospitals are trying to frame it as the nurses being greedy ('Look! We're increasing their pay by 20%!") but everyone knows better.

The last report I got on the state of hospitals a month ago or so:

- running on immigrants who can barely speak any english
- grossly mismedicating patients and probably killing some of them
- those immigrants are working 12hr shifts

If you go into a hospital, you better have someone who loves you to look after you, because odds are good they'll kill you these days.

I wonder if there will be any hospitals around at all in a few years, the rate and direction things are heading? Where do you start to fix this, because most of this is man made retardedness.

Re: "better have someone who loves you to look after you" This strikes me as yet another way that things are starting to resemble the late USSR. Was very common to bring food to family during a hospital stay.
