50 or so miles away to give birth because of the shortage of nurses because of their refusal to get the Vaccine and quit their jobs because they don't wanna comply with it being a lawful mandate to happen , wtf ! so hire new nurses not reluctant to get the vaccine , whats the problem or the holdup ?

There's always a shortage of nurses, unfortunately, not really easy staff to in many places. Surprising really. They need to get the travel nurses on board.

@SW-User nurses gotta know almost as much as Doctors these days

SW-User

@FurryFace they do a lot

@SW-User maybe trim the criteria a touch so more nurses can pass the exams and Doctors can be Doctors

@FurryFace the health system demands a lot from them

@SW-User maybe a little too much

@FurryFace yep I think so for RNs

@SW-User Travel is currently suffering from Covid restrictions.

@justanothername even through the states which I think they are.. There's exceptions for medical staff..it's been that way, there's just always a shortage.

@SW-User there are exceptions for medical staff but the degrees of complication between countries is still quite high when you include quarantine travel.

@justanothername Doesn't mean they aren't going or asking for nurses. Places like Africa, Southeast Asia, Eastern Mediterranean regions, and parts of Latin America, are in need.. There's a global shortage, not only in the US, which has been short for years and years. Some people are willing to go, if they can leave what they have here.
