The ripple effects of this government overreach are incredible
Hospitals are already starting to furlough tons of folks. Hospitals will have to be bailed out next, they are losing their asses on Covid inpatients

Because the COVID19 test doesn't pay shite unless you do the entire RPP with it. I'm sure Quest and Labcorp are losing their asses financially with this.

No new hires, no need for drug tests, no need for employees

Exactly. I used to do tox sales a couple of years ago. If they test a full panel, i think it was 13 diff tests, the $$$ reimbursed was REtarded, omg.

This has happened to local labs too.

Let’s face it. We’ve been had by the biggest, most bogus load of crap in the history of the world. Brought to us, at no charge, by the lame stream media.

You dont have a damn clue what happened in hospitals across the world for the past 2 months. Stay in your lane.

If they make the nurses stay 6 feet apart, can they still choreograph dance moves?
