OSHA ends efforts to establish COVID-19 safety standard in
healthcare settings

OSHA gives up on trying to establish a COVID-19 protocol in
healthcare settings. The American Hospital Association (AHA)
takes credit in spiking the effort.
Pure evil.

Its not just pure evil its also moronic like totally brainless
like total lack of intelligent behavior going on here!
So frustrating I swear this covid thing is obviously not behind
us by any means. It drives me nuts there are still covid
outbreaks and now there's even more viruses because covid only
put us all in a weakened state (it weakens the immunity
system)..
How dare OSHA even imply covid is over by stating
"the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency"
OSHA is supposed to protect people you know like there are laws
about wearing hardhats for construction workers like there
should be laws about wearing safety masks for those who work
around four or five airborne diseases on a daily basis.. you
know occupational hazards. There are occupational hazards that
continue to exist such as germs from all the airborne diseases
and so safety standards in healthcare settings would include
masks rubber gloves, air purifiers, disinfectant procedures,
quarantining patients and even guests in waiting room
procedures, doctor & staff interaction safety measures.
All I know is somebody has to lay down some rules for safety
that's for sure. We (healthcare and its patients) have to
prevent illnesses and diseases regardless if whether covid
numbers are high in each area.. we (healthcare and its patients)
have to prevent the numbers from going up rather than just
reacting after the numbers of illness escalate.
There's no motorcycle wreck or construction workers having a
crisis right now with head injuries going on but we still have
to uphold helmet and hardhat laws on the road and in the
workplace. Healthcare must adopt safety protocols and keep those
safety regulations in place from hereon. You can't lift the
safety protocols and regulations every time people start getting
better. That would be like erroneously saying "oh motorcycle
guys aren't having head injuries anymore so let's not have any
more helmet laws.".. duh.
There needs to be safety protocols and rules in Healthcare and
they need to keep the safety protocols and rules in place and
not change it like we don't change helmet laws for motorcyclists
after it works by cutting down on serious injury.
Take 9/11 for example Healthcare is behaving as if they beat all
airborne diseases once and for all... its like airports telling
us today we beat terrorism once and for all and now we aren't
going to x ray baggages or check out suspicious looking
characters that look like they might blow up or hijack a plane..
that's what healthcare facilities are acting like there is no
more threat and they don't have to check baggage or put a mask
on and everything is the way it used to be when us old timers
were kids still in school before covid and monkey pox or
whooping cough made a come back, before people shot back and
forth in jets and went on giant cruise ships carrying diseases
from afar overnight or before birds started making cows and
people sick. That's what health care wants
..they live in the good old days healthcare wants to live in
fantasy world where no one gets sick , covid doesn't exist
anymore and they beat airborne diseases once and for all with
internal medicine and nobody has to wear a mask or wash hands or
follow any new rules because 'its all good'.
You know it's like that show "little house on the prairie" where
the good doctor with a kind maskless face shows up with his
black bag full of shots or pills and stethoscope and that's all
he needs and nothing bad happens. That's what healthcare wants
..they wanna live in the dark ages before they discovered there
was more than just one or two ways to fight and prevent germs,
illnesses, and diseases.
Many healthcare people go maskless and behave as if they are on
"little house on the prairie"

The 30-Second Little House: Plague Typhus puts a dent in
everyone's mojo.

Healthcare,
Take more safety precautions than Little House On The prairie!
All jesting aside, I truly think that one of the biggest
problems this pandemic faces and the next pandemic will face is
that many people just want to live in the past. That may sound
simplistic but I think it's a good theory as to why things go
wrong during pandemics. People just want to live in the past and
that leads to all sorts of denial and lack of action that they
could otherwise take.
To me its like many people might erroneously say to themselves
and others " we just do what we've done in the past like take
mumps and measles shots in school like we are supposed to etc.
and we'll be alright ..that's all we have to do"but I don't
think that's enough considering the mutations and the number of
various illnesses out there plus their rate of transmission and
unpredictability.. I think healthcare has to take more action in
the healthcare facility to protect themselves and one another
and their patients. One must consider the current unhappiness
healthcare facilities are in including one in four healthcare
workers suffer from mental distress according to the lates news
so obviously this is pressures from too many patients and too
much illness.
