    Default Surgeon General sounds ALARM as Doctors & healthcare workers quitting jobs in droves

    "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
    May 23, 2022

    There is a Projected Shortage of More than 3 Million Essential Low-Wage Health Workers in the Next Five Years and a Projected Shortage of Nearly 140,000 Physicians by 2033

    Today, United States Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy issued a new Surgeon General’s Advisory highlighting the urgent need to address the health worker burnout crisis across the country. Health workers, including physicians, nurses, community and public health workers, nurse aides, among others, have long faced systemic challenges in the health care system even before the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to crisis levels of burnout. ..."

    — Joe Biden on Obama.

    Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.

    D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.

    "Health experts are quitting the NIH and CDC in droves because they're embarrassed by 'bad science' - including vaccinating children under 5 to 'make their advice palatable to the White House,' doctors claim

    The NIH and CDC are reportedly facing staffing shortages as low morale drives away employees

    Decisions like the closure of schools and then requiring face masks once they reopened led to many questioning leadership

    Lately, the authorization of COVID-19 vaccines for children four years old of younger has confused some in America's top medical agencies

    Bari Weiss' 'Common Sense' Substack reports that data from both Pfizer and Moderna's clinical trials for jabs in under-5s show limited effectiveness "

    Being the only nation with a 'for profit' healthcare system, it's no surprise.

    Nurse aids make the same as a Walmart greeter. Who would change diapers for that kind of money?

    Staffing shortages are common with nurses. That often leads to the need for travelers, who were getting paid up to $200/hour during the Covid peak.

    Burnout is a thing. I live with a classic case. Nurses were getting pizza and parades during Covid. Now the hospitals are trying to shut down units to hike profits.

    Never a problem until the Socialist Dems took over healthcare with the ACA.

    Liar. It might not have been a problem for those who got 'free' insurance from and employer, but not for tens of millions who didn't.

    Learn how not to contradict yourself

    Why are you changing the topic. We were discussing Dr. shortages which you blamed on a for-profit system.

    Employers should have never ever been permitted to offer insurance. Period.

    It's always a challenge to attempt intelligent discussion in Appalachia. It's a wonder you know how to c/p, but that seems to be the extent of your abilities.

    Back to topic, why do you blame a for-profit system for Dr. and HC worker shortages?

    So we've been treated now to two-and-a-half years of Reichtards like the OP claiming that the deadly pandemic was overblown, no big deal, masks and social distancing are tyranny, the vaccines are poison, etc. Would YOU want to spend the rest of your career taking care of morons who can't even take simple steps to avoid the hospital? A lot of physicians and nurses are going into office work -- there is a huge job market for them in the managed care (health insurance) industry. I spent the last three years of my own nursing career in that field. Better pay, much better hours, better benefits, etc.

    Those "low-wage essential health care workers" are typically CNAs, patient care techs, radiology techs, etc. Ditto for them. They work shit hours for shit pay, are exposed to COVID and other cooties, looked down on by pandemic-deniers. The job market for them in other industries is booming too. So why stay where you're not valued by the patients/employers?

    The others in this thread have no problem following along. I've already articulated the exact reason for the shortages. You don't even know anybody in the healthcare system. Many of us do.

    Go sit in the corner.
