    MeganMN replied to Joe V's topic in Disaster Preparation

    We had a patient in ICU 2, and at the time, we had a no visitor policy regardless of Covid status. The patient in ICU said his wife wanted to visit at the window. Later, I went into ICU 1 to see my...

  7. Gross Me Out ? Contest | Nurses Week

    MeganMN replied to Joe V's topic in General Nursing

    This is a toss up for me, so I will list the three.... 1. I was a nursing aid, in nursing school. The patient had been admitted for a stroke, and had some serious word salad. He also,...

    We have been admitting a large amount of people who have become infected after their first round of vaccine, before they get their second. Are any others out there seeing this? Do you think it is...

  9. Infection after Vaccination?

    MeganMN replied to MeganMN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    It is interesting to think about. I have another patient today that tested positive after vaccination (both doses). She was asymptomatic, however, so it makes me wonder if the 'breakthrough' numbers...

  10. Infection after Vaccination?

    MeganMN replied to MeganMN's topic in Disaster Preparation

    @toomuchbaloney I work tomorrow and will check with our infection control nurse. I do not know the answer to your question about reporting. The patients were all in between the first and second shot,...

  11. Can They See it in my Eyes?

    MeganMN posted a topic in Disaster Preparation

    I felt sad today. We are having our second (or maybe third?) Wave in our hospital of Covid patients. I used to spend more time in the room with them, talking, laughing, trying to encourage them....

  12. Infection after Vaccination?

    @GrumpyRN it is not something that I am finding, it is something that I am experiencing first hand at my hospital. I just wondered if others were seeing I as

  13. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    Agreed. Thankfully, I do not have to make that decision. If I do visit with family I will drive and not stop anywhere unless absolutely necessary. I know my decision affects those around me. I am...

  15. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    None. I live in the country, wear my masks when I go out, homeschool my kids, and pick up my groceries. My circle of influence is small. The people I spend time around have either had the infection or...

  18. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I do not think that is accurate. Obviously the world is in turmoil due to this virus and many people are dying or having long term complications. I am just not sure that the vaccine is the answer. I...

  19. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I have heard the claim that the PCR at high amplification may also produce a positive result when fragments of the virus are left over, after initial infection. Not sure if this is verified or not,...

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    I feel the same. I will agree to disagree. And yes, I keep my opinions to myself at work, and try to educate my patients and be respectful of their values and beliefs system. I should probably keep...

  21. Does the shot mess with your DNA?

    MeganMN replied to Floor_Nurse's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This is the problem. When a site that is heavily promoting Libertarian, Conservative, and Christian values is seen as looney. And people are criticized for questioning the narrative, as fed to us by...

    I never said I believed him, I was just presenting a video that states theories that the original poster can research. We all have to do our own research, and, in my opinion, it is good to know both...
