Public hospital CEOs had to present a plan to govt last week spelling out how they will save money over the next 3 years. You can't squeeze the system any more & not expect significant failure. Workforce shortages & increased demand with decreasing funds means severe impact on access to healthcare.

VICs beware that hospital budgets have been cut 2 the bone. No idea how the health system will keep functioning. Give it another 8 weeks & HCWs will b @ breaking point due 2 exhaustion from being so under-resourced/over worked. VICs will need 2 lower expectations re healthcare 😢

Do you ever wonder about the 20,000 people who were saved and might be completely unaware of it? Or the 100,000s who never got sick or would now be living with long covid. I count myself grateful to be one of the walking living.

The hygiene hypothesis says exposure to germs helps kids develop healthy immune systems. But many viruses didn’t circulate as widely during the pandemic. Are there downsides to missed infections?
