The Department of Defense announced on Friday that it would ease the process of allowing patients to receive care on the USNS Comfort emergency hospital ship in New York City, which has only accepted 20 patients thus far.
Wasnât Big Orange Virus complaining at yesterdayâs Daily Disgorgement that the hospital ship was being underutilized?
Defense Dept. Loosens Strict Requirements For Treatment On Navy Hospital Ship
Now, itâs all coming together and starting to make sense.
Whatever the shipâs shortfall in actually treating patients, we must admit itâs big, and beautiful, and incredible, and fantastic.
Trump is killing Americans.
âHow do I (Trump is Killing Americans) theeâŚlet me Count the WaysâŚâ
Arenât the shipâs skipper and the commander of the medical unit, being relieved of duty for embarrassing the Dear Leader?
In truth, the GOP is killing Americans. Not just Trump.
About timeâŚ
Truer than my statement. It was ever thus. And Moscow McConnell is at the top of my List.
Simply attesting to a statement of fealty to Spanky is now all thatâs required to board the Comfort.
Iâd be curious to know how many sick and/or unemployed Democrats there are that did not vote in 2016.
That is a very perceptive statement. Sort of Civics 101 (Delayed Version)
Heâd be at the top of mine but heâd have to kill Greg Abbott who is presently at the top of mine. Greg is working much harder on a much more personal basis to get me personally and my husband killed.
When does the navy fire the captain?
OT:
Itâs the AGENCIES that are gouging, not the nurses! I guarantee that the nurses see not a penny of that! The blame shifting is utter bullshit!
Half of the hospitals in Michiganâs largest health system are at capacity, CEO says
From CNNâs Jasmine Wright
Half of the hospitals inside Beaumont Health system, which describes itself as Michiganâs largest, are at capacity due to the increasing Covid-19 cases and it faces a crunch that includes its staffing, finances and supplies, CEO John T. Fox told CNN.
The eight hospital system located in the southeast region of the state is currently treating nearly 950 hospitalized, confirmed cases and an additional 91 who are suspected of having the virus as of 3 p.m. Thursday.
âOur biggest rate limiter is staffing,â Fox said in an interview with CNN. âThe politicians are getting on the podium and saying, âweâre building a 900-bed field hospital over here, 500-bed one over there.â But those are empty buildings of no value without the staff. They often donât have pharmacies, they donât have labs, they donât have a lot of things and so it becomes a fiction.â
Fox also called on the state of Michigan to do more in terms of load balancing patients between hospitals in the state, as Beaumont has found it difficult to do on their own.
Fox says price gouging among agency nurses factors into the inability to acquire more staff and sucks available funds from the system. Agency nurses are contracted by hospitals at a price to help supplement staff nurses temporarily.
Twenty days ago, agencies would charge $60 an hour for a nurses with everything included. That price has more than doubled, with the agencies bidding hospitals against one another to secure a nurse for $130, sometimes $150 an hour, Fox said.
So theyâre going to show a little mercy on the Mercy? How fitting.
Thatâs basic Capitalism. If you want socialism move to freaking Venezuela or Norway.
Changing the federal HHS webdite to confirm to Kushnerâs lies.
The American Experiment might not be completely over, but the grant money is being withdrawn.
Truth be told, sending the USNS Comfort emergency hospital ship in New York City was for Trumpian Optics onlyâŚbut the they were called out about having THREE patients while NY hospitals are bursting to the seams and dead bodies are refrigerated in additional trucks outside the hospitalsâŚover 100K infected!
SO NOW THEY MUST DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX TRUMPIAN BAD OPTICS - hence the loosening of strict requirements BUTâŚ
âIf Iâm blunt about it, itâs a joke,â Michael Dowling, the head of Northwell Health, told the New York Times.
Anyone recently get kicked out of Huffpost, to were when you try to relog in it says you email isnât valid? Asking for a friend!
Anyone surprised that Ivankaâs husband sounds like an idiotâŚyeah me neitherâŚha ha ha.
