You’ve probably heard that Idaho is under “Crisis Standards of Care” but what does that mean?
If you’re not deemed bad enough EMS may not pick you up
Surge capacity of ICU to 3x normal level
Hospital beds in unusual areas like cafeterias and classrooms
Non critical care staff /3
caring for ICU patients
Unsafe patient ratios
Color coded triaging that’s scary in the implications that if certain people aren’t expected to live they’ll just be made comfortable instead of using resources
Non life saving surgeries postponed
And the scariest part? The entire
state is under a universal DNR order! What does that mean? If you go in to cardiac or respiratory arrest, they will not attempt to resuscitate you! This isn’t just for Covid-19 patients; this is for anybody.
Stay out of Idaho if you can and don’t make this happen everywhere else!

🧵My nearly 2 y/o likely has health issues that have resulted in recent rapid weight loss. Our pediatrician just tried to admit him to the hospital for tube feeding (I’m terrified) & there’s no beds because of Covid. The nurse practitioner started crying. We’re on a waiting list.
I’m sitting in a nearby parking lot because my son is so lethargic he fell asleep as soon as we left trying not to just hate antivaxxers. I’m supposed to just wait near the phone in case a bed opens up. But...
Even if he gets a bed I now have the fear of my vulnerable little son getting Covid on top of his current problems. I’m so frustrated & scared. PLEASE if you are vaccine hesitant, go get vaccinated so innocent people like my baby son aren’t put in this position.
