Easy! I have family in NJ and I definitely would not see people from NJ as having a reputation like that. I do scratch my head and wonder about the logic and reason behind some laws, rules and regulations. Hey, by the way when is the "can not pump your own gas" law going to go away? All I say is this whole list thing is not practical and produces no positive results.
People just randomly confess to being engaged in criminal activity to you?
I agree with this 100%. Every corporation has a series of checks and balances, they have audits and if they are either publicly traded or have publicly traded debt or are a non-profit they have audited financial statements. After Sarbanes Oxley was passed there‘s a framework of internal controls that is reviewed as part of their audit as well. Every company has some form of ethics hotline or whistleblower process to report fraud or unethical behavior. Despite all of these controls we still see cases of fraud all the time. In general the vast majority of these fraud cases involve high level executives cooking the books for personal gain. It’s highly unlikely orders came down from execs to push a Covid diagnosis to the front line doctors without someone objecting. Someone would report this to a whistleblower hotline or to the media. I would think it would be highly unlikely that a hospital executive or someone who can directly benefit from these higher Billings could change a death certificate. The best chance for fraud would be in the reporting back to the insurance companies or Medicare. Alter the reports to say more patients were Covid positive. I would think that would be easily discovered in an audit but that doesn’t mean people wouldn’t do it. Either way that billing information has notjimg to do with the publicly reported cases or deaths.
I highly doubt many at my work want it. Every year they offer the flu vaccine on-site, that's nothing new. But this year the participation rate is still under 20%. So without having to even go into a doctor's office, schedule appointments, or Covid being around, not many are willing to have it.
I am so sorry that you and your colleagues are faced with this disrespect. In the beginning everyone was all enthralled with supporting frontline healthcare workers. Now, not so much. Now with the politicalization and the dismissal of the severity of the issue, you guys have become the forgotten ones. Everyone is quick to talk about the economy, the general public, how many hospital beds there are, how many establishments are open, etc. But few have stopped to really think about the people who are saving lives or doing the best they can to fight this virus. Thank you. I can imagine it must be hard for you guys to keep the momentum going or to be hopeful when all of this bull is surrounding you, but know that there are SO MANY of us who are eternally grateful for you all, you are appreciated, and you are in our hearts and thoughts. Keep fighting the good fight.
Adjusting for the 10/9 and 10/10 data dump issue the week over week daily avg is up from 2,408 to 2,933 or 22%. Not trending the right way.
FWIW, I personally know two people in the last two months who had COVID. Both had difficulty breathing to the point that their spouses took them to the hospital for treatment (one went on at least 3 different occasions). In both cases, they were sent home each time without admission and told to seek treatment from their PCP (who told both that they have no way of treating them effectively with their symptoms). If it really was "in the financial best interest... [to treat COVID patients] even if they have no symptoms" my friends would have been admitted.

Since this thread now has the “politics” tab...I’ll let it rip:Gee, I wonder what happened three weeks ago??? Do you think it may be responsible for the 20% increase in cases? If we are 20% more cases do we go back to stage 2?

I know the answers and it is sad.
