612. The number of days since AB first declared Public Health State of Emergency due to COVID. On almost all of those days, I've woken up, checked the census of internal medicine and COVID patients in my hospital.
95 days. Roughly the number of days we have been in the 4th wave in AB. A wave that may have peaked, but now has plateaued into what we are calling at the hospital "the new normal."
150%. The amount each of my internal med docs have worked over the last 21 months, above their usual contractual obligations, in order to staff the COVID and internal med surge teams. (Should out to @BisonGIM - #TeamGIM)
2. The number of little humans in my family who have sacrificed so much these last 612 days, when adults couldn't get their act together. Who are FINALLY eligible to get vaccinated. And tonight.... Those are the only numbers I care about. ♥️
