Then again, you know what "they" say about assuming.

Reading compared to those who are actually working since day one of this pandemic is a very different story. Only emergency surgery allowed, and staff that was not directly working in Covid units were furloughed. So units running were active Covid, or step down.
Most of us were never tested in the first 6 months, some facilities if you tested positive sent you home. If you didn’t have pto then your income was zero. Symptomatic staff continued to work no matter what, many didn’t know if they were positive. Some never went home so as not to take a chance around their family.
So I don’t have to assume anything I have worked since day one. My last assignment was an area with 31% vaccinated, I knew that ahead of time, yet choose to work. Fear has never been an issue.
I am guessing you have been getting your information from media.
However if you are working in a facility, as many of us, and put you and your entire family in harms way, I apologize. But I don’t think that is the case. Those who live this everyday have very different perspective. Most of us don’t rely on media. If we did we may not get up and go to work tomorrow.
