Not sure if the WGNO Article I read said it was all from the Hospital. The CEO mentioned it was from all over the system. Thousands and thousands of employers.

what kind of sloppy process are they running there

hospitals all over are mandating employees wear surgical masks around covid patients even though they know a surgical mask isn't enough protection. There just aren't enough n95 masks to go around..

You’ve been wrong for the vast majority of your “scoops”

Not sure how you aren’t banned for posting false information

My cousin is a nurse at Oschner hospital. I’m worried now. I haven’t been able to get a hold of her. :(

Hey dickhead, they are requiring nurses to work with used PPE, or no PPE at all. Lack of medical supplies has been a concern for weeks.

What has been wrong besides the lockdown? We’re pretty much in a lockdown and have been for a week.

My wife does as well, as do my mother and brother. It's true, and the conditions they are working in are bullshite.

quote:

NEW ORLEANS, La. (WVUE) - More than 300 Ochsner employees are in quarantine right now with 50 of them testing positive for COVID-19.

The CEO of Ochsner Health Systems, Warner Thomas, says the hospital had brought in outside nurses to help with the number of sick employees as staffers also deal with dwindling supplies.

The link to the news story is on pg 1. I have no clue if it's accurate. I just happened to read it about 5 minutes before seeing this thread.

Multiple news outlets seem to be reporting on it

Seems like a pretty awful thing to just make up

Ochsner

I have been impressed with the OT’s ongoing success in spelling Ochsner correctly. I’m not going to bother Googling it but I think Ochsner was an opthalmologist.
