Despite availability of COVID vaccines and treatments, an average of 1,500 Americans are dying from the virus every week. Experts explain why this might be happening.
Feels like a combination of vaccine distrust and misinformation, cost of medical care, and the spread through coming to work sick as many can’t afford not to.
It’s a horrible situation all around that will continue as it was mismanaged from the start.
and the spread through coming to work sick as many can’t afford not to.
In March of 2019 2020 I said this would change nothing about how businesses run, and within two years we would be back to sending people in to work sick. What I didn’t predict was the CDC actually changing fucking medical guidelines to benefit business instead of following the actual timeline it takes from infection to no longer spreading COVID.
It fucking sucks so hard being right. It was like overnight from “You’re heroes!” right back to “You’re lucky to have a fucking job! You should be thankful to me for keeping you employed!”
No one in corporate America gives one fucking shit about our lives. Why aren’t more Americans ready to fucking strike over it? Probably because they’re fucking stupid.
A huge chunk might be stupid, but a vast majority of workers have no union protection, are one accident/car trouble/missed paycheck away from homelessness, AND have their healthcare tied to their job. Its a hurricane of fuck you that the ultra wealthy have created aimed at the working class.
They’ve also Making it really hard to find a shot.
My doctors office didn’t have it, Rite aide wants $100 for it, my state is stupid about providing the shot. I should probably go over to the next state and try there.
