EXACTLY! I know lots of healthcare workers. Hell up until three years ago I was a healthcare worker (pharmacy tech). I couldn’t do it anymore because We were ALWAYS understaffed. It’s by design so the CEO’s could get more bonuses I suppose. Nevertheless we (nurses, doctors, every healthcare worker) never even had time to eat a meal much less choreograph and videotape a dance routine.

pharmacy techs are heroes just for dealing with the public and the companies you work for. I feel for the pharmacy techs. truly underpaid for what they have to deal with.

(unless working at an independent pharmacy.)

I worked at a hospital pharmacy that wasn’t open to the public. I made IV’s as well as picked out drugs to fill the orders. Before that I watched people on telemetry heart monitors in which I worked closely with nurses as well as doctors. They all would get so overwhelmed and stressed because of their work overload that they would literally cry. Just the female.....the males would just get hostile and become A-holes, but because of everyone’s stress level I understand. This was years past before Covid. So throw Covid into the picture and things should be devastating....although I’ve heard it’s not any different at the hospitals than before. This tells me that most of Covid cases are most likely flu and good old fashioned pneumonia. My mom has a friend that manages a lab and say 30% of the tests give false positive results. People that die from car accidents are tested and show up positive. I don’t trust the covid tests.
