This not only seems like a terrible thing to do to our doctors and nurses in general, but especially at this exact moment in what is a historic event. THANK YOU for bringing this to our attention.

One question, because I've recently seen some things that have me questioning... Did you personally witness any hospital staff (mostly doctors and nurses) intentionally unconcerned about safety protocols for the virus? Maybe acting a little blase about it and not concerning themselves with the welfare of others around them?

Thanks for all you and your colleagues do. My father was an RN and faced his own backlash at one point. I'm sure he'd be very interested in this.

My great uncle never left the states, he worked loading supply ships. My uncle was active Navy during the war in Vietnam, but worked in Hawaii deciphering code. My grandfather was a mechanic on the front lines during WW2. I'm glad to see others appreciate these unsung heroes.

What drew you to this topic?

Ugh, why some people are in the medical field is beyond me. My mother has heart problems, and was in the same hospital 7 times in 14 months. The nursing staff was excellent. Only one tech was kinda not, but it wasn't her usual floor anyway so we never saw her again. I have nothing but respect for nurses

Did I just jump into an episode of Silicon Valley?

My great uncle (WW2) worked on loading supply ships, I should have been more specific.
