We've lost a handful of nurses who chose to go per diem. I talked to one who is going to Hawaii this week on a contract. Making a ton of money, and she gets to go to Hawaii. Not a bad gig for a woman in her early 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVScout Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 A new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that “severe outcomes” for covid-19 patients did not increase significantly since the delta variant started spreading widely — suggesting that while the variant is more contagious, it does not cause more severe illness. Analyzing data from 14 states, the CDC found that the proportion of patients who were admitted to an intensive care unit, put on a ventilator or died “did not significantly change from the pre-Delta period to the Delta period.” Moderna said interim data shows positive results for its vaccine among children ages 6 to 11, the company announced in a statement on Monday. The company said the data showed a strong neutralizing antibody response after two doses of the vaccine at a 50-microgram dose level. The European Medicines Agency said early Monday it initiated a “rolling review” of evidence on the efficacy and safety of molnupiravir, the antiviral pill developed by Merck and Ridgeback Biotherapeutics to treat covid-19 — an initial step in the longer process toward authorization.

To get the chimp to stay still, we gave her marshmallows and M&M’s,” Herman says. https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2021/10/26/covid-delta-variant-live-updates/#link-JXFOEJLF45BOPOHHXWDRSNO33E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
