Louisgod posted:wtf how do you use more beds than you have The numbers places report are "staffed beds." That means they have enough personnel to give the baseline level of care to those patients. There's other beds, but then you have nurses taking more patients than they're supposed to, which reduces the care each patient gets and increases time between checks so you get stuff like that guy lying on his junk so long they had to amputate it. Everyone's expecting the collapse to be hospitals just turning away droves of sick people. It's more like they're going to keep wedging people in until everybody's standard of care falls through the floor as fewer and fewer nurses have to manage more and more patients with fewer and fewer resources. This is because healthcare providers are good people (generally) and genuinely do want to save people, and we were able to carry the first wave through people going above and beyond. But that human reserve that got us through the last one is rapidly depleting in the face of dumbshit citizenry and dumbshit governance, so...

Just run the league normally and say people can go maskless if they know they'll be 6 foot distanced, then drop your shoulder through them as you catch the frisbee and stare them down when they're on the ground

That girl trembling triggered a memory, back in high school there was a clique of girls who all did that when they "got too hungry", they would claim they were all "hypoglycemic" and start just twitching like that collectively when lunch got close or they had to skip snacks. Of course hypoglycemia is a fictional disease and they always needed "sugar for my hypoglycemia" and would eat candy all day.

No, science doesn't say poo poo about this. DING! DING! DING! It also has the huge side benefit (for them) of giving their followers a shorthanded way to appeal to authority without pretending to. "Don't you Trust The Science?!?!?!" essentially means, "I can't argue the actual point, so you should just shut up and do whatever the CDC says because they know best."

lol the hospitals near work are all 80%+ full, the closest one 100% full and in a high risk county and completely surrounded by high risk counties according the CDC. Definitely no reason to even think about mask requirements in the office. lmao. Good point about biking, thanks thread. Guess I'll ride the lovely stationary bike

goth smoking cloves posted:Have they tried having a high vaccination rate? check out these three sentences in a row from a report on de blasio's press conference from yesterday. Touting the “Vax to School” effort, the mayor called the effort a cornerstone of getting kids safely back to physical classrooms in the nation’s largest public school district. "We want people to feel this is the moment for kids to get vaccinated,” de Blasio said. But de Blasio said vaccines would not be mandatory for returning public school students returning to in-person classrooms.

my work is being stubborn and is basically trying to torpedo my homeschooling plan by insisting that my work schedule isn't nearly as flexible as they first implied. part of the reason they gave was because other people have been quitting and so they need others to fill in the schedule gaps feeling pretty close to going for the nuclear option and just quitting and laughing in their faces as it dawns on them how hosed they are now that most of their staff is loving gone, but goddamn it would be hard to find wfh employment on short notice

I know I at least was expecting the ratio to change this wave, but so far it really isn't. my initial guess is that vaccinated people aren't really testing either, so it's still primarily testing and deaths of unvaccinated people
