We had a week long trip planned for Roan Mountain campground the first week in April. Looks like that will be cancelled.
My wife is a nurse at a nursing home. They now have two rooms converted to containment rooms so the hospital can send infected patients there. .. Why?? The elderly are the most likely to get it. So why send it to a nursing home? Makes no sence to me. Five managers there this week turned in their notice. Which started a discussion last night about older health care workers quitting, to stay healthy. We figure it's probably happening across the nation. I bet those positions are going to be really hard to fill. So, the nurses left on the job are gonna get burned out fast trying to cover all the shifts.
I've seen less hikers here in town, Erwin. I only saw two in town on Sunday....
This is terrifying.
Look what happened at the assisted care facility in Washington. So many of those patients were wiped out, and the staff sickened. It sound sound s like the stupidest idea ever. It is hard to blame the older health care workers for getting out, no one wants to die on the job. We are just another week or two awAy from a huge crisis in the health care industry.
