"Wisconsin is in a bad place right now with no sign of things getting better without action. We are, quite simply, out of time. Without immediate change, our hospitals will be too full to treat all of those with the virus and those with other illnesses or injuries. Soon you or someone you love may need us, but we won’t be able to provide the life-saving care you need, whether for COVID-19, cancer, heart disease or other urgent conditions. As health care providers, we are terrified of that becoming reality.
But like many families facing a crisis, we can rally together and take action to get through this one. You’ve heard these recommendations a thousand times, but if the thousand and first time makes an impact it’s all worth it. If you stop the spread to one person, it’s worth it:
- Avoid gatherings that put you at risk, not just with strangers but extended family members, too. Not just big parties and rallies, but happy hours, conferences and sporting events.
- Wear a mask. They really do work, and they save lives, including your own.
- Wash your hands, often."
Just how many times do adults have to be told the things that they should know well by now? It's extremely infuriating and isn't likely to get these defiant idiots to cooperate.
I've also heard a suggestion that Americans be paid if they agree to get a COVID vaccine. That's a pretty outrageous idea and says a lot about the lack of character of the antivaxxers.
