Fun little tidbit, my sister is an NP manager for a group of SNF/rehab homes with a bunch of olds. Several of her NPs quit this week out of fear of the roni. Come on, there aren't even any confirmed cases in the homes yet! Do not mind that no testing is being done.

My SNF lost about half of our second floor to "unexplained" dyspnea/temps with multiple CXR showing basilar infiltrates over the weekend. 13 hospital DCs in the last 3 days, three expirations. Rapid spread through the floor.

My department was told today that we are required to start treating patients on that floor for PT/OT/ST. We haven't been given gowns, and they are giving each therapist one n95 mask that they have been told must last a week or they are not getting another one. The building administration has been arguing with doctors who want to send pts to hospital; admin is fighting tooth and nail to keep butts in beds.

Most of the department is talking about quitting and I am starting a two-month leave of absence tomorrow.

"I don’t care if Biden beats Trump. I’m not offloading responsibility. If enough people feel similar to me, such as the large population of Muslim people in Dearborn, Michigan. Then he won’t"



The Florida reported numbers are pointless. I know two people that had it - one is still waiting on test results 9 days later. The other was told by the doctor to just not get tested because he didn’t end up in a hospital and they’re out of tests.

After this is over and it becomes ethically feasible I think there is going to be a reckoning between clinicians and the medical establishment, and it's been a long time coming.

Accountants shouldn't be telling doctors what to do.

Is the reasoning in this article faulty, or is it just based on old data? They seem to be arguing that the 'real' mortality rate of covid is much higher than what the media is reporting.

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/laninf/article/PIIS1473-3099(20)30195-X/fulltext

Trying to make any conclusions from data other than “this many people are dying each day in X country after Y measures were taken” is really hard at the moment and near meaningless. And even my examples assumes the country isn’t changing their method of counting deaths over the time period being analyzed.

This paper looks like it is noting mortality rate in the context of “confirmed positive clinical determination of COVID” - I.e. excluding asymptomatic people which could be a huge portion. Their conclusion is more applicable to saying like “The probability of death for people who have tested positive and have symptoms is higher than we thought”. This isn’t “hey the rate of death for all the people who will ever get COVID is really 6%”
