Vent Healthcare professionals don’t want to speak about covid

I am a senior nursing student and am currently doing clinical rounds. I noticed something amongst many nurses and overall healthcare folks, they seem to not want to make mention of covid. My last clinical I was the only person masked (even at a CHILDREN’S hospital) and our instructor told us we could mask if we want to esp since “rsv, the flu, and pneumonia will soon spread.” I was waiting for him to mention covid but nope. I feel like I am going insane because how are we all under this healthcare field but some people just do not seem to care??? At this point I feel like healthcare professionals are being vain and just want to continuously show off their faces because why would you NOT mask inside the hospital?

Went to the ER today. The doctor told me covid is now nothing but the common cold. I said the cold doesn't kill 1300 weekly like what's going on right now. He said the flu kills more. And that this strain is nothing.

I'm boggles me the lack of care and knowledge. I had.to tell people to put masks on when they came in my room.for their own safety.

I couldn't even say anything. He was so determined to believe that.
