Prominent scientists have bad news for the White House about coronavirus antibody tests

In a phone call last week, some of the nation's top scientists briefed White House officials about antibody testing, according to two doctors who were on the call.

This is consistent with what I’ve heard about antibody tests available so far. Hopefully we get some good news about immunity soon. It’s really our only short term exit strategy, without any viable treatments or vaccine. We need a scientific breakthrough, baby Jesus!

Completely missing the point, no one is complaining about the temps, the issue is with the hospital not really taking care of their home team, how is that unclear to some of you :lol:

if the hospital can afford to pay temp RNs 3x the salary of a home RN, I’m not sure why it’s been over a month and they can properly compensate their own....that doesn’t mean working them unlimited hours for their earn.

It's simple supply and demand.

There's a demand for rns everywhere, not just at where you work. Those temps are filling that demand. The money they're paid is to incentivize those temps to work at your hospital. Obviously if they're not being offered enough, the temps will work somewhere else. And then where will that leave you? Short staffed and overworked.

Getting those temps to come to your hospital is how 'they're taking care of the home team'

Good luck getting any temp to come to your hospital if your job doesn't bid over market value

Like what is it?

The workload for the home team hasn’t changed when the temp RNs that are being brought in, are just tossed into a place they’ve never worked in before with a Medical Record System they don’t know how to work....orientation for nurses sometimes take weeks, some of the temps being tossed into ICU have never worked in ICUs before....in reality is more stress on the home team, at least for the time being, the same way they can incentivize Temps with a really good pay rate, they can do the same for those that have and will continue to break their backs for their own hospital

SARS-CoV-2: Virus able to survive in 60C temperatures

SARS-CoV-2: Virus able to survive in 60C temperatures
The virus that causes COVID-19 can survive for long periods at relatively high temperatures, which has implications for researchers.

he coronavirus can survive long exposures to high temperatures, a new peer-reviewed study published on Biorxiv has shown.

Researchers had to bring the temperature to almost boiling point to kill the virus completely.
The finding could have implications for the safety of lab technicians working with the virus.
Most labs use a 60C, hour-long process to deactivate the virus before further processing. But Professor Remi Charrel and colleagues at Aix-Marsellie University in France found that after heating the virus to 60C for an hour it was still able to replicate.
Only heating the virus to 92C for 15 minutes was able to totally kill it.

We are going in circles here. Like I said if the full time staff are up in arms about the temp pay you guys should tell management you don't need them. Tell them you're happy to work all the hours the temps are working. Either that or you can quit and work somewhere where they'll pay more, just like the temps would. Maybe the full time rns can become temps themselves at another hospital.

I'm willing to bet your rn friends wouldn't be willing to do that... Acclimating yourself to a new hospital when covid is everywhere doesn't sound like fun...


*edit

After thinking about it, I see what you're saying. While the temps are on orientation, the case load for the regulars are the same because the temps aren't yet assigned regular assignments yet.


So in the short term it doesn't feel yet that you're getting help.


But in the long term once these temps are up to speed that'll be a load of your shoulders.

Your friends shouldn't be short sided and complain about the temp pay because every hospital desperate for nurses are offering the same pay. If your hospital didn't bid the same zero temps would be coming to your hospital, the way that temps are in demand right now, they will just go where the money is at.

Walmart is now forcing all sales reps, vendors, and merchandisers to get their temps taken before they can be in the store. This company needs to go under man I swear.

This is pretty much going to be the new reality of opening up the economy so at least they will be able to get used to it before it happens on a large scale
