Covid In Photos

 

When I went to grab some subs I saw this sign showing that Firehouse Subs still have not gone back to having their hot sauce bottles. They had little to go packs of 3 different kinds that you could grab. I missed all of the different options they used to have including the fruit ones. Even though I think people should still be careful of covid, I think now that the world has returned to 'normal' that companies should give people access to what they had offered and let them make the choice to use them. They could also have wipes out for people to wipe the bottles down. That way everyone is happy.

Covid in Photos

 

This was taken at RMR (VA hospital in Aurora, CO). The VA are still on high covid alert and masks are still required. This makes sense since while we were in the ER it seemed like at least half of the people there were sick with covid. Some of the people had been waiting hours to get the results of a test that is supposed to be done in 15 minutes. The VA just doesn't have the staff it needs.

This was the trash can by the elevators in one of the parking garages. They don't even have the staff to keep up with the trash.

12/11/22: "Shoppers, workers clash over post-pandemic expectations" - I've noticed many of the things this article talks about. Places just don't have the same hours they used too which is a negative impact on people with non-traditional schedules. Not to mention that a lot of the labor shortages is because people are lazy and do not want to actually work. Work ethic has been lost in this country. We were already seeing the effects before covid and now it is at an all time high. https://apnews.com/article/business-pandemics-national-restaurant-association-5573d1102cfced4b22cf9930dcf4f77f

11/10/22: "Sotomayor rejects plea from NYC workers who lost their jobs due to COVID vaccine mandate"- This makes me have mad respect for this woman. What these people do can have negative impacts on the people around them. This is not a form of religious discrimination. Religion is an active choice, like picking where to work is an active choice. People have been using their religion to step on people throughout history and these people were trying to use their religion as a weapon to hurt the people around them. If these people are that locked on to their religion they can choose to work in fields that allow work from home so that they will not have to interact with and endanger others. - https://www.foxnews.com/politics/sotomayor-rejects-plea-nyc-workers-lost-jobs-covid-vaccine-mandate.amp "Unvaccinated infants were hospitalized with Covid more this summer than most age groups, CDC says"- https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2022/11/10/unvaccinated-infants-were-hospitalized-with-covid-more-this-summer-than-most-age-groups.html
