The system is failing. Hard.<p>It has been for decades. Society was robbed for profits while sly politicians from all sides and parties got voted in because they always found someone else to blame while serving their corporate masters.<p>Now science, already under attack where not co-opted when it stood in the way of more profits, sold it&#x27;s soul by keeping quiet while bogus about PPE and &#x27;social distancing&#x27; got and is peddled to the public.<p>Will something rise from the ashes? For now our &#x27;rulers&#x27; seem hell bent on doubling and tripling down on the same course that got us here in the first place.

I have never understood why people in healthcare accept 12 hour or longer shifts in normal times. Now it’s coming back to haunt them. If normally they would have worked 8 hour shifts there would be more workers and now, in an emergency, there would be room to expand.

I thought I&#x27;d read that medical errors happen more often when doctors switch over than when (even very tired) doctors work longer.
