I don't believe they are making these deaths up for financial reasons.
What amazes me is how so many keep believing that Disney will be back to the way things were pre-covid some day.
They may be, but it will probably take awhile. Also, they likely will take advantage of this break in attendance to adopt some new systems, especially the ride reservation system.
Working as an RN in Wisconsin this is complete crap and is dumbfounding its even posted and stays up. God help us.
Not sure why you quoted me but you don't think the eviction courts are working overtime to process the backlog?
RNs are people too. It’s likely they heard that from the same social media sources people here have. I don’t know the ins and outs of every hospital but the RNs I know aren’t involved in hospital billing and don‘t typically have a say in what the cause of death is on a death certificate. How many Disney CMs parrot what they read here despite having no actual inside information on future rides or other park changes? Happens all the time.
From what I’ve heard the reservation system is permanent. We don’t like it because there were so many times we’d on a whim decided to head to Epcot for the evening
Who did you hear that from?
I have a friend here in Ohio that just went back to RN after taking time off to bring up 4 kids. She has pretty much said the same thing as @Disstevefan1 said. She is a little disillusioned to say the least. Yes, God help us.
I personally have not seen that where I work. I have heard stories from nurses that worked in NYC back in March\ April that this was possibly going on. I'm not sure if it was intentional. They were just very overwhelmed. The inner city NYC hospitals are not the best.
I would think that’s more of a CYA for the hospitals. They don’t want to send someone home and then get sued if they die. I know that happens all the time anyway, but with the heightened focus on Covid I could see hospitals being over cautious especially because there are so many unknowns with Covid.
There are people admitted that have multiple co-morbidities along with having Covid. I think that could be where it gets murky.
I'm sure it's lovely for Disney, but it's not great for guests. (though with y month ahead adr's, you often have essentially a park reservation).
There's that, but some of them do keep the DOJ busy.
Nurses in hospitals work very hard but they’re also not the ones making decisions. These stories being “from“ nurses is perfect. They’re not actually involved in the widespread criminal activity they allegedly know about (but are also not reporting it) and are in a sort of revered position which means the story is not to be questioned.
I like to check the weather the day of or the night before when planning which park to visit the next day. One of my favorite things at Disney is watching citizens of Hollywood, they don’t come out in the rain so I’ll spend a rainy day at MK or Epcot.
It could just as easily go the other way, though. We now have enough experience to know that most people who catch COVID-19 can safely convalesce at home with only supportive treatment, and one of the best predictors if the patient will get into trouble with the disease are the vital signs when they first present. Knowing all the resources that a COVID patient will consume plus the fact that elective procedures have to stop once a hospital's COVID burden is too high, there's actually a pretty significant incentive not to admit.
