(63,221 posts)I have so much respect - and even awe - for people in this profession. Their professionalism and dedication throughout this pandemic has been unbelievable.
Most of us would have walked off of the job a long time ago, yet their patience is being tested daily by the selfish and ignorant who refuse to take simple precautions such as getting vaccinated, wearing a mask and social distancing whenever possible.
It makes me angry that so many people take them for granted because they truly are our last, best hope in this crisis. If they are pushed too far, I would not blame them for walking off the job. They have already put up with so much. It is time for society to shoulder its share of the burden now.

These women and men will be hero's for life. The doctor near the beginning saying if the nurses aren't here don't even open the hospital. That is the proper respect for these Super People.
