Alaska allows hospitals to ration care amid COVID-19 spike

ANCHORAGE, Alaska — Alaska on Saturday activated emergency crisis protocols that allow 20 medical facilities to ration care if needed as the state recorded the nation's worst COVID-19 diagnosis rates in recent days, straining the state's limited health care system.

  1. Only reason AK has this large COVID case count is the government finally got off their ass and starting logging in the data from earlier this year.

  2. The best fix to this is to fire all the nurses.

  5. If you believe their bullshit numbers the total cases since March to total deaths is only .2%. Wow I'm really (not) worried about it now. So sick of the bullshit hysteria over this non problem.

  6. This pandemic has proven one thing for sure. Our medical system really sucks if a virus with mortality rate of less than 2% can overwhelm the system. Imagine Ebola or anthrax or a truly dangerous bug.

  8. As a retired RN living in Alaska let me state the problem is that the souless creatures(hospital administrators) short staff their institutions. One hospital has a ratio of 1 RN per 15 patients on a med-surge unit. Used to be 6-8. And if they are in such dire straights,why are they firing the staff members who refuse the jab? Like the comments above they are getting paid well to provide shitty care and no one is allowed to visit their friends and relatives. I find it hard to believe, but our doctors have ethics which are 3 levels below a crack whore.

    1. You got that right Mike. I'm hearing tales of that in my AO. Patient goes in, even if they're tad bit overweight or have high BP (which is probably partially white coat hypertension because they're captured in some bad sci-fi movie. They're put on a ventilator and they're dead within 1 week. Many of them post social security earnings. Never to be able to enjoy their hard earned retirement.

    2. Not an RN but am Alaskan. I've heard that local RNs are a wee bit upset with non jabbed AK nurses fired and lower forty eight outsiders hired to replace them receiving a much higher salary that locals.

  9. There are no covid-19 "spikes", just spikes of adverse reactions from the "vaccines".
