I was shocked to read that ER doctors have not received a second
vaccination. All that empty talk about our “front line heroes,” stories
of how they have separated themselves from family to avoid spreading the
virus, the stress and PTSD from the exceptional conditions they face — and
they are not given priority for an optimum vaccine protocol?
We are importing health-care workers from Newfoundland because ours are burning out, and the number of COVID patients is increasing. It seems completely counterintuitive that we are not giving maximum protection to the workers who are keeping our system functioning in extreme circumstances. It should be top priority to get these doctors and nurses fully vaccinated now.
