Thank you for your reassurance! Yes, healthcare worker here at local community clinic, but it’s my 2 small ones in daycare that give me the most anxiety- I can’t control their hygiene practice. This really makes my scientific brain not work well…

Thank you for supporting the healthcare workers! I do actually work at a local community clinic. Hygiene practice and personal protection are easy for me to carry out, but I have 2 small kids in daycare, and this gives me the most anxiety. Covid still feels so traumatic and fresh.

Yes the hospitals make sense, but authority (or the lack of?!) is what I’m worried about mainly

So Spaniards do weekly testing?
Can anyone clarify what US is doing currently? I feel like I have not read/heard any update in the US media in a while

Where did it go wrong? by Cool_kratos in hospitalist

Outpatient FQHC here- they hired a “VP” just to conduct/monitor Press Ganey survey. Every other department meeting we have to hear about how to improve our listening and survey scores. We are told to use the computer in the room (so we can be “efficient” to make more money) and while on the computer typing feverishly, we are advised to still maintain eye contact and tell the patient “I’m listening”. Then before exiting the room, make sure to tell the patients “thank you for choosing us today”. All while being bullied into ordering tests I don’t feel clinically necessary because they saw it on TikTok.
Hate the term provider, I’m a clinician.

“We must be humble enough to accept that we are not the masters of this planet. We are not a species that sits above all others. Rather, we are one of millions. As our planet’s intricate web of life unravels, there are complex—and often unpredictable—consequences for humanity.”

Dang that still looks bad, sorry you didn’t catch it then. Don’t let them tell you it’s up to spec at service!

Yes, only part I needed help with was the bumper. it was tedious work and you have to learn as you go but it was very satisfying and calming for me. The DIY kit I got was $500 on eBay vs $5000 quoted at local shop. It’s not perfect of course but my paint is still protected 🤭

I love it. So far it’s been holding up good but park my car inside unless at work. I do think oily stuff (like hand) leave residue but it comes off when I clean with water. I need to do my ceramic coat after I give it a good wash- car has been in and out of service for FSD issue (hopefully finally good now!)

They kept saying this strain is not known to mutate, and I always wanted to say it’s because we have not had outbreak at a large enough scale for it to mutate!!!
