Non Healthcare Folks, we need to talk.

When we say there is a "bed shortage" - we aren't REALLY talking about a lack of furniture (although sometimes we are running out of physical space). We are talking about healthcare workers to care for the people in those beds. We have a nationwide shortage of Nurses, technicians, phlebotomists, pharmacists, respiratory therapists, and in some places doctors. A hospital room without these people available is basically a very, very expensive hotel room.

I am thrilled to know that the CDC now feels confident that fully vaccinated people are at low risk of transmitting COVID 19. I would also like to explain why I will continue to mask when indoors in public places and in crowds despite being fully vaccinated 1. The vaccine is extremely effective but not perfect, and I have seen what COVID can do even to those who only have "mild" cases. Wearing a mask is a small inconvenience comparatively.
