By now you've heard this one because it's ridiculous. She was a nurse who died of COVID and told her family not to get vaccinated while she was taking her last breaths. Just ridiculous. Again, what kind of schooling do these nurses receive?
Anyway, there are TONS of stories on this one already. Just google "Natalie Rise" and you'll get pages of information. However, this one Twitter post says it all...
FYI, Natalie does get the distinction of being the most requested post on sorryantivaxxer, taking over Loren Sanford's spot. Sorry Loren.
RIP Natalie and Nursing.
I also recently moved to the middle of nowhere from a large metropolitan area, so I think there's a cultural component too
I know, it's ridiculous, I'm an RN, and I am just appalled. The other day, my coworker and I were testing those employees at my job who have declined the vaccine. One of my fellow RNs told me, with all seriousness, that I was going to turn into a zombie. Those were her exact words. I'm thinking, 'dont you have a degree in science?' I have a BSN, and I'm not trying to be snooty here, but I've read articles in nursing publications that seems to indicate that a correlation exists between educational level and quality of care. Maybe that explains some of it? I dunno, maybe there is a difference. It could be too, that many states are facing…
Well she did stick to her belief until the end…. she just made the wrong choice and paid the ultimate price.
There's STUPIDITY,then there's STUPIDITY on her level..LOL
Nurses don't get the education they used to. Also, it depends on what level nurse they are. RN's used to have to have 4 years now they can be RN's at two years, it depends on the state. I think a proficiency exam should be given and passed with at least 70% or higher. You can imagine what EMT's are like now.
