1. I really wonder if the countries/employers mandating vaccines for healthcare workers will cause more deaths due to staffing shortages. But it also isn’t clear how many of these workers have direct patient contact. Some hospital staff have zero interaction with patients.

2. This week I tried to get appointments at 2 medical facilities to follow up on a rash of unknown origin. For the first time I was told that I cannot see my specialists because they are fully booked. These are not high demand specialists who are usually booked.
3. I know that one department has been struggling with a staff shortage for much of the pandemic but not sure about the other one where I was told that I couldn’t see anyone because everyone is booked. (Other dept said appt with NP might be possible.)
4. Both told me to check back later when they hoped more appointment slots would be released.
5. Are other people having difficulty getting in to see providers who are usually not completely booked?
