RE: Misinformation, Misconceptions, and Covid-19
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
One of my classmates is a nurse. She's come to cry in our WhatsApp groupchat more than once. There is insufficient PPE, and people are dying alone. They don't have enough space to properly isolate covid19 patients from the rest. I receive a bunch of front line news.
I don't worry about myself, I worry about my friends with underlying conditions, my grandparents, everyone who is vulnerable.
It's not just the elderly who are vulnerable. People my age can be too. I am in touch with my friends who have chronic illnesses, who haven't left the house in two months, not even for a walk because they are too scared to die. I am in touch with vulnerable people who wish people would stop behaving like those with preexisting conditions are disposable.
I'm currently not in Germany, I'm in Ireland, so yes, things are slightly different. Germany might be doing better, but if the curve isn't "flattened" enough, resources will eventually run out too.
to remain humanly you've got to face that people die and that every one can die any minute.
If a facility cannot give space for isolation then it should deal in the best positive way with the real circumstances ... not let people feel that they are a threat for each other, which is always a bad idea. If people must die alone out of fear, something is wrong with humanity. Now, is your friend who is a nurse, giving company anyways? I would call her humane and serving in real life what most of us do as lip service.
Here in Germany we run under capacity as far as I know.
Looking for good stories and actually distributing what has NOT happen in terms of disaster so far (as many many doctors and other people in the field confirm) would be a good thing, is what I think right now. If your friend has anything good to share I would be happy to receive it.
So far, the only good thing she shared was that she received the results of her Covid19 test within 3 days. She was surprised it was this fast.
If I accept that anyone can die any minute, I will become cold, because death is not something I just accept. Which is why I'm a biologist and want to help find cures for disease.
Isn't it possible to accept death and be sincere, friendly and in love with people nevertheless. Why is it a contradiction for you?
Always, since the profession of doctors are present, they were dealing with dying people. What happens to a doctor who cannot accept that people die? Will he/she probably become stressed out because of dying people, especially when they were young and healthy before? Why would you be different in your profession as a biologist? We are all humans and death is the most natural thing next do birth. I think we forget about it too often and once it moves itself in front of our eyes, we become deeply uncomfortable, like right now.
But okay. I think this could be something your educators could talk about to their students. If not, I would ask myself, why.
I don't like not having a choice. I know it's basically impossible, but if I ever found the solution for eternal life? I'd use it.
Until then, I will give everything to prevent unnecessary death.
Who is to define what's unnecessary death if not for his very personal and private realm? Once it becomes defined for a whole society, you scare all those people who welcome it as a part of life.
Have a good night to Ireland.

ETERNAL LIFE XD
