Anyone know which hospital this Mississippi nurse works at?
She tweets she's refusing to wear masks despite an administrative order because "they DO NOT WORK!!!" (False; many studies show they are effective).
She has since deleted this tweet.
This is her bio pic. It's important to know if this is widespread at her hospital or isolated bc she and other nurses/doctors at that hospital are constantly in contact with vulnerable patients. This is a life or death issue in hospitals.
She tweeted that she's a traveling nurse and she's currently working at a hospital in Sioux City, Iowa.
But that doesn't explain her original tweet which implies she's "here in Deep South Mississippi."
She's also described the COVID-19 vaccine as "poison" in one tweets (false, false, false), which is a big difference from opinions she was expressing on vaccines two years ago in 2019 (see tweet on right).

Sean Hannity is an awful person. But whether he did this because he's worried about losing money in stocks or because he realizes it's not good for business if his audience dies... this is good.
Some people who would've died will probably live bc of this.
And that should tell you how many people are dead today who wouldn't be if Fox News handn't pushed disinformation on COVID and masks and vaccines since March 2020 to promote a political agenda and keep viewers riled up and outraged for ratings and $$$.
Yes, I know Sean Hannity said stupid stuff before and after this clip. He's Sean Hannity. That's a given.
But he has millions of loyal viewers/listeners. It's almost 100% some will change their minds after hearing this one part where he urged them to get vaccinated.m
“For so long last year we waited. We sacrificed collectively, individually, through social-distancing measures & mask requirements. ... While early vaccination numbers were encouraging, we have ... come to a standstill," Mayor Barker said on July 9. mississippifreepress.org/13872/hattiesb…
The week after Hattiesburg announced $15,000 in vaccine giveaways, the number of people receiving at least one COVID-19 vaccine was up week-over-week by:
"The belief that the South's past is only worthy of national scorn...shows how Black Southern activists have been erased from its regional memory," @ProfTDParry says.
Black activists & lawmakers fought alone for decades to change Mississippi's state flag.
Most white lawmakers came in at the last hour last year (or no more recent than 2015) to support changing the flag. Guess who media heaped most of the credit on? 2/ mississippifreepress.org/3710/you-white…
That's why we wanted to make sure at @MSFreePress to tell the stories of Black activists & lawmakers, young and old, who led the fight to change the state flag.
I was so bad at math in middle school, I triggered screaming fits from two math teachers.
One threw an open textbook on her head, pulling down on both sides, screaming.
On another day, she threw the textbook to the ground & jumped up & down on it, fists clenched, screaming. 😐
I don't know why I just thought about that now, but it suddenly occurs to me that this probably wasn't normal?
Like, it wasn't my behavior that caused those two teachers to get so frustrated at me they literally screamed (one on two occasions). I just didn't get math.
What I realized in college, when I was able to take online math classes where I could teach myself step-by-step from a textbook, was that I actually wasn't as terrible at math as I thought.
I just didn't understand it the way my math teachers taught it. & I had undiagnosed ADHD.
The Texas Senate just passed a bill that would remove most mentions of people of color & women from K-12 social studies curriculums & axe a requirement that students be taught about the history of white supremacy & “the ways in which it is morally wrong." news.bloomberglaw.com/social-justice…
None of these things have anything to do with "Critical Race Theory" (which is taught in LAW SCHOOLS, not middle schools), but this is what the goal of that panic was: to justify a crusade against an education that challenges white supremacy & teaches real history.
This Texas crusade to strip real civil rights history and the truth about white supremacy from school curriculums has nation implications: Remember, Texas produces much of our nation's textbook supply.
