    Emergent replied to LibraNurse27's topic in General Nursing

    Fortunately, I never bought into the whole inheritance thing. It got so tiresome, in addition to the other dysfunction, that I just went my own way and emotionally let go of the ideal that I had of...

    Emergent replied to Sour Lemon's topic in General Nursing

    Will Covid cause huge transfer of wealth out of hands of middle class?

    Emergent replied to Emergent's topic in Disaster Preparation

    This isn't really a political post oh, it's a post about the economic impact of covid-19. One thing I have to say is, the American propensity to be in debt is going to hurt many people. I'm glad I've...

    I thought that the new protocols contraindicate widespread use of ventilators for this virus. The statistics point to the fact that approximately 90% of those with covid-19 put on a ventilator die...
