At this stage, being in denial about #COVID19 and the need to #GetVaxxed is ridiculous, but because I STILL meet these people I want to post what I see ALL THE TIME:
1) At first the covid denier and antivaxxer arrives in the hospital (strange huh) still in denial about the
serious nature of what they just got.
2) They will many times still sit with their Fox News and their social media, complaining about the alarms in the room.(the alarm annoying is alarming because their oxygen levels are dropping but they dont feel it.....yet)
3) After the oxygen level has reached a level where the organs aren't getting enough oxygen to survive, we place them on a higher flow. What does that mean you ask? Well
4) The air you breath every day has 20% oxygen in it. (Yup thats right). When you're placed on that little
Nose thing we call a cannula? It goes up to 40% oxygen when maxxed out at 6 liters. Oh, but no, Covid is WAY stronger than that and doing WAY more damage than that. 6 liters and 40% is a joke to it. So we move to the Airvo2. 40 liters and 60% oxygen. FOURTY LITERS OF FLOW!
5) So now this denier is feeling pretty good. I've watched them smugly tell family (on the phone of course) that this isnt so bad and they'll be out soon. What we dont tell them, because we are compassionate people, is that they cannot leave because their oxygen requirement cant
be sustained at home. The MOST you can do at home is FIVE liters. Hey, remember that FREEDOM you wanted? Yeah...no freedom when attached to 40 Liters of oxygen being pumped out of a wall.
6) It most times doesnt end there. Now this person is in ICU. Thats INTENSIVE CARE UNIT
7) In ICU, they continue to get access to their Fox News and, if they can still talk, their phone. Many times (my own two eyes and not "mainstream media") their oxygen requirements go UP. So....we go up.
8) 50 Liters of flow 70% oxygen. Finally 60 Liters of flow and 100% oxygen..
9) That is the maximum ability of the airvo high flow. With that INSANELY FAST heated flow going through your nose you would think it would be good right? Nope, many times...nope. You see, the unvaccinated dont have an early warning system. The body doesn't know what's up. Bad..
10) So oxygen keeps dropping so on to BIPAP or CPAP. This is a mask covering the nose and mouth giving continuous positive pressure. You see, now the air wont make it down to your alveoli which is where u exchange oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Im sure its not the covid right?
11) Now lets stop for a second. You have a mask covering nose and mouth and oxygen pumped from a wall. How "free" do you think that makes you? No freedom to eat, no freedom to walk away.
12) This spot reserved for intubation. TRUST ME u dont want to know.
#tuesdayvibe
Here is the progression of the unvaccinated in images as suggested I add. Airvo, bipap mask, ventilator. Please #GetVaxxed . Then you can claim we "made a big deal out of nothing" the rest of your life in ignorant bliss.

Not only is this an awesome circle, it shows you how much I stay informed on ALL sides of the issue. I see it all so I can call out the ignorant and embrace the logical. Image

What happens to a patient with #COVID19 ? Let me clue you in:
1) So far youngest I've seen is early 20's.
2) The air we breath is only 20% oxygen (did u know that?) The people in covid ICU end up being hooked up to 60 Liters of flow (10 times that little nose cannula in movies)
3) the oxygen percentage on average is between 50 and 100% oxygen.
4) You can't match these on home oxygen so you're staying in ICU.
5) Despite these incredibly high numbers some end up breathless and are intubated and put on ventilators.
6) You're not awake on a ventilator. You
are at the mercy of medical personnel that are busy with you and all the OTHER people that have come in either unvaccinated or immunocompromised and are dying
7) There are many doctors and nurses but the MAIN person running these high flows and ventilators are Respiratory

On the subject of #CriticalRaceTheory I had a conversation with a person that is against it. I found out the misguided reason they dislike it so much. Here it goes.
-The main issue for them is that CRT tells them America is inherently racist and built on racist policies. My reply
1) That is NOT what CRT wants to teach. Critical Race Theory is an ADMISSION that America did not ALWAYS stand for what we learned after the civil rights movement.
2) There would have been no NEED for a civil rights movement without a LACK of civil rights brought on by racism
3) CRT teaches that America built itself into a new nation where all men were created equal, but at the time they did not consider African Americans even HUMAN
4) When freed, Jim Crow laws and other policies resulted in a message that: "you are free, but we dont have to accept u"

I want to share a personal story with all of you about watching #racism be born. When my daughter was in Kindergarten, she began to learn things other than colors, paint and naps. She came home one day and said "Daddy, today I learned about Martin Luther King" I was excited. I
told her to tell me what she learned. She said: "Martin Luther King was a good man that tried to teach people to love each other. but, he was killed by White people." My heart sank. WHAT!? Did they really word it like this to her?? I said " Baby, the teacher said it like that?
She said yes. She then looked out the window and told me: "does that mean my friend (Caucasian friend) cant get along with (African American friend) anymore?" My heart was breaking. I got to the house, parked the car and looked her in the eyes. " Baby, Martin Luther King was not

The #GOP has FAILED #America under #DonaldTrump. It all started with the #MuslimBan within DAYS of becoming #POTUS. Dismissing people outright based on their religion alone!? He denied it and in the same day called it a Muslim Ban on TV. How can we forget when he called all
Mexicans "rapists and murderers"? How can we forget that he called their desperate situation thay forced them to come here an "invasion"? How can we forget that a man heard those words spoken in El Paso, drove to El Paso, and shot up a @Walmart in El Paso by "coincidence". How
can we forget the fact that #COVID19 started infecting and killing the ENTIRE WORLD and #DonaldTrump called it a hoax. Be preferred to sit around coming up with racist names for the virus while it crept into the country. When he finally acknowledged it, he PUBLICLY asked Pence

Why are cases increasing in #Texas #Florida #Mississippi and places like this? Well, there are many reasons here but I want to focus on something productive as a #RespiratoryTherapist so here goes: What both the people that #WearAMask and those who do not fail to realize is the
bigger danger. We wear a mask to protect ourselves from droplets hitting our face when people talk. #coronavirus is not an airborne virus in the traditional sense so we are not wearing it to stop #COVID19 itself so stop with the "these arent N95 masks!" BS. All we are trying to
do is trap particles that may be contaminated with #COVID19 long enough for us to take off the mask. The main issue here is a lack of understanding of #fomites. These are areas that can hold on the the virus and it can remain viable for a period of time until someone comes along
