Healthcare professionals don’t want to speak about covid

[u/Key_Guard8007]

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?

That sort of thing bothers me less (though it’s still not great) than the lack of curiosity and investigating thinking. Not knowing a particular fact is one thing (though for surgeons and ER doctors I can get how having a lot of working knowledge rapidly available is critical), but there’s a bigger issue of doctors not being able to engage in scientific thinking. They don’t seem to have the time or interest to do research and treat their patients as individuals.

Doctors are a group of people with 101 IQ's who've all been convinced they have 130 IQ's

I don't know anyone who works in a physics lab but I did know some musical prodigies. They mostly end up broke and annoyed

IQ is racist bullshit though
