How about you learn to read, son? It isn't COVID that's doing it, its other health problems and people not wanting to work.

Did you ever bother to get a job? How about you chip in some labor down at the hospital if you care so much? Yeah, keep whining. That's all you libs are good for anyway.

Pol Pot full, too?

Hmmmmm....

"COVID cases are rising, yes, but they’re only about 10% of all patients. The “overwhelming majority” are those with other serious health conditions."

And

"And the system’s experiencing a staffing shortage so severe, they’ve had to close 180 beds. Henry Ford Health System announced earlier this week that it’s had to close more than 100 beds, for similar reasons."

“Thanks to our heroic vaccine effort, we’ve gained the upper hand against this virus,” Biden said. “We can live our lives, our kids can go back to school, our economy is roaring back.”

Joe Biden, July 4th, 2021

This problem you cite must rest squarely on the Biden Administration. After giving what amounted to a "victory speech" on the fourth of July, the virus came roaring back. Since he took office, there have been over 250,000 Covid deaths in the U.S.

I haven't seen any effort from him prodding the creation of therapeutics or new vaccines. His messaging on the virus has been all over the place and he seems to be placing the blame on the citizenry instead of attacking the problem with new solutions.

Think I'll start a Biden Death Count thread....

Beaumont has been mismanaged by the current executive "leadership" team. Deadline Detroit has been writing about the myriad problems within the organization for close to a couple years now.

Everyone from anesthesiologists, to surgeons, to nurses have been leaving for a while, even before COVID became a major issue.

I haven't seen any effort from him prodding the creation of therapeutics or new vaccines.

Why would "new vaccines" need to be created? The three existing vaccines approved for U.S. are very widely available, are largely effective, and for adults and teens are very safe.

In terms of therapeutics, I do agree the messaging and research both need to be stepped up appreciably.

Not absolving Beaumont of any shoddy management, but there's still some blame to spread around.

Also from the linked article:
“Many people delayed getting tests and treatment for medical issues because of their concerns about the pandemic,” Fox said in a statement. “Now, more than a year and a half after the pandemic began, those delays in care are resulting in medical emergencies.”

Much of this is due to the fearmongering and the draconian shutdowns. I wonder how long it will take - or if we'll ever know - the total "cost" in lives or overall health from missteps in managing through the pandemic.
