“The staffing shortage and closure of the LBED is a result of the Hospital’s compliance with the NYSDOH’s mandate… requiring the suspension of all staff working under temporary religious exemptions who could not show proof today of receiving a first dose of COVID-19 vaccination or a valid medical exemption from receiving it.”

“We regret having to take this step but the safety of our patients is always our No. 1 priority,”

Compliance with the state's mandate is obviously a higher priority than the safety of the patients who by virtue of their status as patients in an ER are not in a state of safety. If the unjabbed workers were a real threat to the patient safety the would have enforced their own mandates long before this deadline. How many patients are catching covid from health care workers? Or, how much will they relax the measure they put in place to prevent that from happening before requiring the jab? (none, obviously) Also, how many unemployed nurses are there that they think they can fill these positions? Or will they call in the National Guard (who are not required to have the jab and unqualified)? Will they blame all the deaths from their actions on covid? Yes, Dick varient of covid because it was a dick move.

It's worse. When this whole "opiate crisis" hit they had to put out a memo for doctors to stop cutting their cancer patients off meds because they were totally throwing their patients under the bus so they wouldn't risk their licenses.

Doctors are pieces of shit.

I agree with the last part, if we add the qualifier of "most" to doctors. The incentives for wealth and regularly upgraded trophy wives and that god-complex of just declaring stuff to patents who often are too intimidated to ask real questions, those incentives do lead too many genuine pieces of shit into the field, much like lawyers and politicians and law enforcement (minus the rotating trophy wives for them I guess). The over prescribing of pain killers I know a little about through the ways addiction has been understood in the professional literature, but I see two the big culprits. First, corruption in regulatory agencies allowed analogs of obviously dangerous drugs with questionable medical use be prescribed in a new but essentially unchanged form. Second though is the gifts from sales reps and all the perks doctors got when they over-prescribed those drugs. Another aspect of the problem is that the system and the individuals who profited from addicted patients did nothing to aid those addicts. For too long they were treated like dirt-bag drug addicts even as the true nature of the industry was being exposed. It's all very dehumanizing. Doctors will look out for doctors, lawyers for lawyers (the distinction between judge, prosecutor, and defense are meaningless distinctions because it is them against us), and everyone else is left scrambling-- unless we organize ourselves they way they organized themselves.
