when i was little i used to get severe existential panic attacks and the only thing that calmed me down was late night talk shows, because i figured, even though i lacked the ability to comprehend what existence even is, certainly the funny talk show host and his funny guest must have things figured out a bit, so some day i will too

well, i was wrong

In China just recently a 4 year old child was found to be positive and she was locked in a room immediately and her meals are brought in by healthcare workers in hazmat suits. Why would she be allowed to return to her family, so that they too will become infected and thus require more quarantines? The entire western world, even NZ, apparently forgets how diseases work as soon as you do something draconian like make them stay in a room alone for a week away from their mommies.

quote:

JoAnn Cavanaugh, a Catholic Health spokesman, said of the elected officials' request for a meeting: "We appreciate the interest and inquiries from politicians and community leaders who have reached out to offer their support. We remain focused on good faith bargaining directly with the union to settle these negotiations."

The contract talks are "important for ensuring we can continue to provide market-competitive wages and benefits for our associates and allow us to recruit and retain the best caregivers so we can effectively staff our hospitals and continue to be the most-recognized health system in our market," Cavanaugh said. "We also must reach new contracts that will ensure the sustainability of our hospitals so we can continue to fully serve our communities."

I’m not clear on what’s going on here, are people pretending to donate food to the hospital? Or are they donating food instead of money against the hospital’s request?

I wish I knew, but they claim they can't accept food on our public IG but then thank a company whose food they did accept on our private FB. My impression is that they'd prefer money for their foundation, but will grudgingly accept food from legit vendors

I posted this before and this thread moves too fast so here it is again:

My inlaws in China have not experienced any of these draconian measures, neither has the vast majority of the population. Their town has never had a single case of Covid. They've never been obliged to wear a mask in public. They've never had a lockdown, or the closure of any businesses or public gatherings and they've never worked from home. They don't know anyone who's ever had Covid. They know one person who personally knows of one person who had it and recovered, in some other province. The only way their lives have been touched by the pandemic at all are that they have contact tracing apps on their phone that they sometimes need to use for public gatherings and transport, they got vaccines, with pretty much no side effects (inactivated virus vaccines usually don't have any), and for a period in 2020, schools went virtual - this was a national policy with no exceptions, even in places that don't have a single case, I guess the Chinese just don't care about education the way Americans do.

This is what "draconian measures" look like. The whole loving point of enforcing strict quarantine measures for a small subset of the population that gets infected is so that they don't go on to infect exponentially more people and cause exponentially bigger draconian lockdowns. Like even reading about NZ's "draconian" lockdowns, apparently a lot of their positive cases are from family members of people who test positive? In China just recently a 4 year old child was found to be positive and she was locked in a room immediately and her meals are brought in by healthcare workers in hazmat suits. Why would she be allowed to return to her family, so that they too will become infected and thus require more quarantines?
