[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Where is the evidence that most of the people dying are frontline workers? According to CDC data, 75 percent of the deaths are ages 65+, and 25 percent are ages 85+. Data from individual states suggests that about half of deaths are linked to nursing homes. This is not exactly the working age population. We should take care to prevent deaths, but this is why people have stopped listening to your side. You just hysterically spew false information. The threads on this board just keep getting more and more desperate as you realize you have lost in the court of science and public opinion.[/quote]

DP.  I don't think most of the people dying are frontline workers.  I think that a few have died, and the people who knew or worked alongside them make choices whether or not to remain in the profession.  As this turnover increases and becomes more commonplace, both the quality (in terms of experience and capability) and number of staff lessens.

Since it takes over 10 to 14 years to train a Doctor, or 16 mos to 4 years for a Nurse, (and that's if you're fine having someone without a lot of experience and just out of school treating you?), every seasoned health care professional that decides to retire early or take a new position that does not deal with patients is a loss that cannot be easily replaced.

I just hope you remember that if you're ever admitted into an ER?[/quote]
