Everyone was so eager, back in 2008 to give government, thru the Affordable Care Act, more control over the practice of medicine.

Everyone was so eager, back in 2008 to give government, thru the Affordable Care Act, more control over the practice of medicine. No one involved in patient care can honestly say it improved outcomes or delivery. It dumbed down the entire profession. What happened to our critical thinking skills? Apparently, like everything else, we farmed them out to the Nanny State.
I’m an ICU RN. I worked SARS. I’ve worked in Sierra Leone. Nothing in my previous experience, and I mean NOTHING, prepared me for the level of hysteria I witnessed in my hospital in January 2020. Our profession lost its collective mind. Masks? To filter out viral particles??? To this day, we’re trotting around in filthy masks as if our lives depend on them. Telling patients to go home & not come back until their lips turned blue? This is the best we can do? Sheer insanity.
Those of us in medicine knew, or should have known, the epic failure of previous attempts at creating an mRNA vaccine for a coronavirus. Yet, most in the hospital setting couldn’t get injected fast enough, even those with natural immunity. To this very day, MDs are STILL PUSHING the jabs on their patients, even while my ICU is filled with the injured. I never imagined a day would come when I would be ashamed of my profession.
I didn’t become an RN just to stand by & watch ppl die while Admin & marketing teams, resplendent in their bespoke suits, dictated care protocols that would simultaneously worsen patient outcomes, prolong suffering, and enrich those at the top. This isn’t news. Any honest person with half a brain working in a hospital has known. Most have simply chosen to look away. To collect a paycheck. It’s obscene.
Nurses like you, and Doctors like Dr. Malone, Dr. McCullough, and thousands of others who are speaking out, speaking truth to power, exposing the corruption, etc., give me hope. We all need doctors and nurses who take their oath seriously and fight for the health and safety of their patients and fellow citizens. Thank you for all you do. We must fight for integrity in medicine.
Respectfully, I think we do have a backbone. It's just that so many of our colleagues are a part of the problem. A handful of nurses and physicians cannot stand against licensing boards and hospital “machines.” The corruption surrounds us. I am deeply disturbed and ashamed to be in the medical profession now.
Kinda reminds us of the German Church in the 30s. 3000 revolted loudly against the National Socialists, 3000 remained quiet, and 3000 supported Hilter. Mass formation much? Yepper. Who said that history doesn't repeat itself but it does rhymes at times?
PS: Those of us who have been vaxx injured have found our way through the medical morass for the most part. Their are some great healthcare professionals out there--enough to build a new future. Thanks for serving. Keep the faith. We adore your type.
I am a retire Nurse Practitioner. I feel the same way- I’m ashamed of the medical profession. It’s embarrassing what hospitals did for money. The physicians and nurses who tried to speak out had their licenses sanctioned and would have lost their licenses if they continued to speak the truth. In the State of Michigan, over 200 health professionals had hearing to sanction licenses and several were hit with civil suits. Hopefully, these honest professionals will one day get their day in court and sue Whitmer, Nessel and the State licensing boards. What a fraud on the American people.
