Covid19 [View all]

Hi ya all, I have been working 9 12 hour shifts as a respiratory therapist, please do not gather at Christmas and New Years this time so we can all gather safely next year. I had to take care of 18 high flow Covid patients for nine days in a row now and everyday we had to intubate 3 at a time and they did the next day and do the same thing over and over. We have multiple Covid patients in Er with an 8 to 12 hour wait. Please please do not travel nor gather with friends and families, I have too many couples and their daughter all on the same floor on high flows of oxygen and they all gathered together during thanksgiving and some of the patients all travelled from different states . Please I beg all of you to mask up with surgical mask, social distance wash your hands and please Do not gather with friends and families this coming holidays. Please pray for us all.
