Minnesota (allina) metro hospitals are running at full capacity, and there is uncontrolled spread in Minnesota, as well as all states it is surrounded by. Patients are being airlifted from western Wisconsin because the medical infrastructure of western Wisconsin is complete dogshit, and some nurses are discussing a potential labor action, with or without the approval of the union.
love to live in america
I have two friend who are nurses that have been working absurd scheduled hours, and then even more time that's mostly without pay because they feel terrible leaving when their shift ends because there's never enough people around :/
Hope they do it. Teachers and Nurses striking is about the only hope for the US at this point. But we all know two weeks after Thanksgiving it's basically going to be the apocalypse.
Yes the midwest is fucked. There will be mass graves before the new year
I go back to work on Thursday after taking a couple weeks off. Really going to suck. My city is getting hot hard
Sending healing energy to our Minnesota comrades and sister Ilhan.
Imagine living in that state and having literally just pulled in to yet another pandemic day in the office because you lucked out by being a cubicle jockey in an "essential industry".
Not saying the above scenario is based on real events or anything.
Also hell yeah nurses should do a labor action.
