Really? Do you mean to tell me, what took place in the Seattle nursing home, very early on…weeks before it arrived on the east coast, wasn’t a wake up call to those managing similar institutions? Do you really believe people are that stupid? If they are that stupid, it’s soooooooo stupid that it’s criminal but you answered the question…it’s different. I feel for all of those family members whose loved ones died as a direct result of blatant, ignorant stupidity.
WRONG!!! Here’s my post on the subject from April. I knew what was going on and yelled it from the rooftops.
The Post reports that a Brooklyn nursing home that’s seen New York’s greatest number of COVID-related deaths (55, on the latest list) wrote the state Health Department on April 8 to plead for help.
Cobble Hill Health Center CEO Donny Tuchman e-mailed four officials to report that his facility had “over 50 symptomatic patients scattered through the building and almost no gowns” and warned, “There is no way for us to prevent the spread under these conditions.”
Washington state reported the first U.S. death from the new coronavirus, the first health care worker infected, and the first outbreak in a nursing home.
The first outbreak was in February and on the other side of the country. Nursing home managers everywhere had a wake up call right then…and right there. What they did from that point forward to protect their occupants and employees is what needs to be examined?
Your question implies…you really don’t care but my point is that you hold one entity totally responsible for something that at best, was indirectly responsible, while giving a free pass to another, who was directly responsible for what it is you’re condemning. You’re better than this and have a great heart. Use your open mind in the same manner and remove politics. Just look at the evidence.
You’ve evolved my friend and now have bitterness leading your way. I remember well that both of us, often, prior to Trump being elected, saw things and commented on them from very similar perspectives.
