They, being the liberal, like to hide the fact, PEOPLE ARE QUITTING. Democrats think we will roll over for the vaccine, nope not going to happen. I quit, my freind quit. Another freind said he was still working but was quitting if they mandated the shots. It also speaks volume when health care workers quit. Anti is so full of BS it's really weird.

If they would get 1/2 of the coffee drinkers and Donut eaters away from the Pot they would have a surplus of workers, provided they Work!!!

Atrium Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center Wilkes
how many names does it need?

57 short, actually... I posted the job openings earlier

But that includes physical therapists, secretaries, and part time lab techs, so it's a little misleading. For a place with 781 employees *, 57 openings is only 7%:

Friend of mine just got released last night from WRMC and a nurse told him they were 50 people short of employees

Anti-vaxing is a Democrat plot to kill off Republican voters.

None of them seem to give any thought to the lack of staff


Your link didn't work right, but I'll list all of the jobs listed for WRMC. 18 of them are for the Emergency department.

This is about the same as always, so it has nothing to do with being short staffed. The problem is that we are going through a huge COVID spike right now. Our ICU is at 99% capacity... Hugh Chatham is at 96%, Iredell Memorial is 98%, and Davis is 99%:

If it's poison why did Trump get both shots?

And I guess it's everybody's right to clog up the hospitals through their stupidity and self neglect and prevent patients with other life threatening conditions getting treated. So typical of gopers I've got my rights but screw you and your rights.

It should be everybody's right whether or not they get that poison

I keep seeing on social media complaints of waiting times, patients all over the place etc. etc. etc.

None of them seem to give any thought to the lack of staff and that the shortage will only get worse come
October 31 when people are fired for not taking the jab.
