Hell. This is hell.
It's a good thing we've walled off an attending physician position behind 10+ years of schooling that costs $250k+, famous for its spike in burnout and suicides at the resident level where they're making nothing and working constantly. Just in time for the survivors of these severe COVID cases to need lifelong multi-specialist treatment. Just in time for the massive backlog of cases people have been putting off for two years, making the issues more serious and requiring more treatment. Just in time for the next pandemic we're less capable of responding to.

Bring a doctor is like going through an insane hazing to be in a frat.
I can think of no better way to deliver healthcare to people :doomjak:
Really wish the phrase "physician shortage" would break through more in mainstream discourse. The AMA artificially makes it harder for the US to produce medical professionals. We don't have enough doctors or medical schools in the US.
Nursing in this country is also atrocious. $50k to get a BSN at my local state university with scholarships that double as toilet paper. $20k for an LPN, $1k for the cheapest corporate CNA course. I've worked with patient:provider ratios of 20:1 and that was just accepted. For that wage, for double that wage, I wouldn't risk my life doing the job again knowing that it will only get worse. That city and anywhere within driving distance of that school has priced students out of living there unless they also have full-time jobs, which pay a whopping $14/hr at most unless you want to work manufacturing/Amazon without class availability.
Social murder. Every fucking person responsible for the healthcare system should line the Via Appia as a warning to future generations.
I doubt they'll even bother with that. I think they want everyone to get infected, because they think it'll end the pandemic.
That's absolutely what everyone is banking on, now that Omicron appears to be less deadly. Can't wait for the spring when we get hit with another Delta-level or worse variant and it's immediately obvious that they opted to just sacrifice everyone to Omicron on a hunch.
They're not going to do a single thing now that the vaccine is out and all pain caused by the pandemic can be considered "You get what you deserve" with lots of resentment towards anti-mask/trumpers to fuel it
Maybe just maybe you'll hear some lip service about giving tax deductions on college loan interest payments for nurses and doctors when the healthcare system truly and utterly collapses
I have no idea. I assumed it was the name of some American Hospital.
I mean it wouldn't surprise me that they'd name a hospital after a Nazi.
When Henry Ford died in 1947, he used Nazi magic to put a curse on his personal physicians because he blamed them for his death. Now their spirits must roam the Earth practicing medicine for eternity.
Doctor working for Henry Ford Health System, a healthcare corporation. The article appears to be written for people from Michigan who would be familiar with the company.
a healthcare corporation
Are there more cursed words than these?
Ford Health System
I think I purchased this warranty plan with my last new car.
He's a specialist in treating disorders found in American industrialists/antisemites.
