Swine Sars!
So dunno if a lot of you know where Nova Scotia is on a map. I know G-REX will. But in any case, our little province holds 4 cases of confirmed swine flu. And day by day and I can just see how much my job is going to suck more than normal as I work as an RN in our province's largest Emerg.
The other day, we ran out of isolation gowns in the whole hospital. So I couldn't even protect myself from people that don't have swine flu but other infectious goodies. The little town where the 4 cases are confirmed (all students as a boarding school that went to Mexico for an exchanged) is suffering from stretched medical resources, cancelations of events/business, etc.... And the idiots that are showing up the various emerg's are in full effect. One patient came in b/c they had "talked" over the phone to someone in Mexico. Anyway... I hope this doesn't get crazy b/c being pregnant and an working in an ER is a little scary. Only b/c it's not been discovered why seemingly younger, healthier Mexicans are dying of this mild flu. Usually takes older, really young and immuno suppressed patients. Kirsty |
