[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^Okayyyy, that's not quite how it played out. Noone used expletives so let's not escalate an already unsensitive comment. [/quote]

Yeah, the recap wasn't very accurate.  Both the parent and the staff member were pushing it too far, but the Cliff notes writer left out that the the staff member lost a coworker to covid and is, understandably, scared to go back in and is being told, "too bad, so sad," by the parents.  It all sucks.  Also, one of the parents criticizing the counselor also told a nurse that her profession doesn't care about getting COVID, so that gives you an idea how far these people are willing to go online.  It all makes me so sad.[/quote]

That’s not what he said.  The nurse said that nurses at her hospital routinely eat in break rooms together unmasked.  He responded that if that’s the case, it means either that those nurses do so because they appreciate that a short interval of indoor meals with social distancing isn’t a significant risk factor, or that they don’t care about getting covid.  He then went on to say that the obvious conclusion is that nurses must appreciate that this isn’t a high-risk practice, either the implication being that the idea that nurses wouldn’t care about getting covid is absurd.

You can argue about whether indoor meals are high-risk, but to say he said nurses don’t care about getting covid is a gross and willful misreading of his comments.[/quote]
