1. Agotamiento y Trauma del Personal Sanitario.
La pandemia de COVID-19 ha dejado una huella indeleble en la salud mental y física de los trabajadores de la salud, quienes experimentaron condiciones laborales extremas, hostilidad y una profunda carga emocional.
- Working in healthcare during the pandemic was horrifying, exhausting, and demoralizing.
- My friend the nurse almost had a breakdown from losing more patients during the height of the pandemic than she had lost in her entire career. She has ptsd.
- I ran an icu during covid. Seriously, i cant do another pandemic. Bird flu, measles, ebola.i cant.
- I will never forget what it was like working as an icu physician during the pandemic. There were many days that i went back to my hotel crying because of the patients we lost.
- The greatest casualty in the covid pandemic was the healthcare community. We lost our empathy, we lost our health, we lost our humanity.
2. Escasez de Personal y Éxodo de la Profesión.
La dificultad y el trauma vividos durante la pandemia han provocado una masiva salida de profesionales de la salud, exacerbando una escasez de personal ya existente y poniendo en riesgo la capacidad de atención futura.
- The covid pandemic has already broken the healthcare system. It is bleeding out staff and the usa is ignoring the fact that they dont have replacements.
- So many health professionals left then and have never returned.
- We lost many nurses during the pandemic. There were a couple of reasons for that. 1. Inadequate staffing and supplies for a heavier patient load. 2. Nurses took so much abuse from anti-vaxxers and anti-masking people in their care. This disrespect led nurses to quit or retire.
- The healthcare system is already experiencing a huge shortage. A lot of people left their professions or cut their hours due to working in the pandemic. It was brutal.
- So many doctors and nurses left the field because of what happened during the covid pandemic.
3. Falta de Apoyo y Reconocimiento.
A pesar de ser aclamados como héroes durante los momentos más críticos de la pandemia, los trabajadores de la salud han enfrentado una rápida disminución del apoyo público y gubernamental, así como una desvalorización de su profesión.
- My husband works in healthcare. He lived at the hospital for basically two yrs straight we didnt get to do shit. Back then he was a hero. Now everyone has forgotten.
- Its funny how during the pandemic that nurses were heroes and now were disposable and dont forget that nurses are no longer professionals.
- The country clapped for them, and this is their reward. Its a disgrace.
- During the pandemic under 45s 1st admin, nurses were absolutely essential, yet they got usedabused treated like crap, while people simultaneously thanked them for being theredoing their jobs. The second the pandemic was over, it was back to forgetting about them.
- Everyone cheered the nurses when they saved us all during the pandemic. And now, theyre not professionals? this is a kick in the groin prez kevin.
4. Temor a Futuras Pandemias y Colapso del Sistema.
La experiencia traumática de la pandemia de COVID-19 ha generado un profundo temor entre los profesionales de la salud ante la posibilidad de futuras crisis sanitarias, advirtiendo sobre la incapacidad del sistema actual para afrontarlas.
- Many healthcare providers are going to have a hard time working through another pandemic though. The last one was so incredibly difficult, and hospitals have been cutting staffing even more since then, making it even harder to do our job safely.
- As a fellow nurse with 40 years experience, yes, it was the scariest and worst time of my career too. I will not be working another pandemic!
- As a healthcare provider - a lot of us will abandon ship if there is another pandemic - most have not completely recovered from the burnout of covid . Im more than alittle worried about the near future.
- The cuts are setting up the american healthcare system for failure and the deaths of millions of human lives. I know many healthcare workers im one of them who will refuse to work the next pandemic. It will be chaos.
- I am positive that if we have another pandemic, the us health sector will fall. There is so much silentburied ptsd in the field, people will quit rather than go through it again.
5. Percepción Pública y Desinformación.
La pandemia también expuso una preocupante ola de desinformación y hostilidad hacia el personal médico, lo que complicó el control de infecciones y contribuyó al desgaste emocional de los profesionales.
- The hostility toward medical staff was palpable and infection control was made impossible by those who refused to wear masks.
- So many doctors and nurses left the field because of what happened during the covid pandemic. Anti-vaxxers, anti-maskers and maga treating healthcare professionals like they were idiots.
- I quit healthcare because it burned me out but i had old ass patients like that back during the pandemic who were laid up in the hospital with covid still thinking its a hoax.
- The pandemic really brought the stupid out in people. I worked with a locum during the height of the pandemic who was antivaxx. By far the dumbest intensivist i have ever worked with.
- During the initial months of the pandemic, a lot of the nurses and other staff became covid deniers and vaccine refusers, but still would refuse to take covid patients.
