>>> > > > WE ARE FOLLOWING TERRIBLE STUDY ON THE CORONAVIRUS. ONE IN 500 AMERICANS HAVE DIED FROM COVID-19 CONSIDERING THAT THE STARTING OF THE PANDEMIC. THE ELDERLY ARE AMONG THE THE MAJORITY OF AFFECTED. ONE IN 35 INDIVIDUALS OVER THE AGE OF 30– 85 HAVE DIED FROM THE VIRUS. IT IS WORSE FOR COMMUNITIES OF COLOR. THESE ALARMING FIGURES COME AS U.S. OFFICIALS INTENSIFY THEIR PRESS TO VACCINATE MORE AMERICANS. NEARLY 65% OF THE POPULACE HAVE RECEIVED A MINIMUM OF ONE DOSE BUT SCIENTISTS ARE EXPLORING POSSIBLE BOOSTERS. THE FDA HAS RELEASED INFORMATION OF THE PFIZER BOOSTER APPLICATION FINDING NO MAJOR SAFETY CONCERNS. AT THE SAME TIME, ISRAEL HAS LAUNCHED A STUDY SUSTAINING THEIR EFFECTIVENESS. WHAT IS YOUR VIEWPOINT? >> > > IT IS WONDERFUL TO JOIN YOU BOTH TODAYS.
I ASSUME THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF NEWS COMING-OUT WHEN IT PERTAINS TO BOOSTER PICTURE. I BELIEVE SOME REASSURING DETAILS UPCOMING FROM ISRAEL INDICATING BOOSTER PICTURE TO BOOST THE OVERALL EFFICACY OF THE VACCINATION AGAINST SYMPTOMATIC DISEASE BUT ALSO EXTREME ILLNESS AS WELL AS THREAT FOR HOSPITALIZATION. I ASSUME PART OF THE CONCERN RIGHT HERE, A MINIMUM OF FROM SOME MEMBERS OF THE FDA ADVISORY TEAM IS WHETHER OR NOT BOOSTERS, RIGHT NOW IS THE VERY BEST ALTERNATIVE WITH THE RESOURCES AVAILABLE.
I BELIEVE THAT INCREASES SOME VALID CONCERNS. A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF INDIVIDUALS IN THE COUNTRY ARE TOTALLY UNVACCINATED. THEY HAVE NOT GOT BOTH DOSES OF THEIR COVID-19 VACCINATION. ATTEMPTING TO LOGISTICALLY PERFORM A BOOSTER PROGRAM WHILE A LOT OF STILL HAVE YET TO OBTAIN THEIR FIRST SHOT ELEVATES CONCERNS CONCERNING SUPPLY, THE ABILITY TO PROVIDE THE INJECTIONS AND ALSO STILL CONVINCING PEOPLE TO OBTAIN VACCINATED. THE BOOSTER SHOT INFORMATION WE HAVE AVAILABLE DOES PROGRAM IT INCREASES OVERALL NEUTRALIZING ANTIBODY DEGREES IN PEOPLE THAT HAVE GOTTEN THE THIRD SHOT. IT RAISES THE CONVERSATION ABOUT WANING RESISTANCE. RESISTANCE LESS EFFICIENT FROM THE SECONDLY DOSE BUT DOES STILL OFFER STRONG PROTECTION FROM SERIOUS DISEASE OR HOSPITALIZATION. >> > > YOU ARE BASED IN WASHINGTON, WASHINGTON HAS CERTAINLY HAD A SPIKE IN CIRCUMSTANCES. THE GOVERNOR HAS ACTUALLY APPLIED A VACCINE REQUIRED FOR THOUSANDS OF EMPLOYEES. BUT, LOTS INDIVIDUALS HAVE APPLIED FOR EXCEPTIONS. WHAT DOES THIS INDICATE ABOUT THE ONGOING HESITANCY WHEN IT CONCERNS THE CONVENIENCE LEVEL WITH THE VACCINE? >> > > IT IS AN ESSENTIAL INQUIRY. I WOULD SAY THE BROAD MAJORITY OF HEALTHCARE WORKERS, NEAR 90% WHO ARE NURSES, OVER 90 PRESENT FOR DOCTORS ARE ENTIRELY VACCINATED.
SO, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT IS CLEAR, THE OVERWHELMING MEDICAL AND ALSO HEALTH CARES AREA SUSTAINS THE SCIENCE, INFORMATION AND ALSO DETAILS THAT GOES BEHIND THIS VACCINE. WITH THE MASK MANDATE, I BELIEVE THERE IS A GREAT DEAL OF ISSUE ABOUT THE POLITICS OF IT. REGARDING BEING REQUIRED TO SAY WEAR A MASK OR REQUIRED TO GET VACCINATED. WHAT I TELL INDIVIDUALS IS, IF YOU TAKE THE POLITICS FROM IT, IT IS SIMPLY SOUND JUDGMENT. USING MASKS IS SOMETHING THAT IS BEEN HELPFUL FOR United States THROUGHOUT THIS PAST YEAR AND ALSO A FIFTY PERCENT FOR DECREASING THE SPREAD OF COVID-19. AND ALSO, WE UNDERSTAND FOR THE PAST SIX AS WELL AS HAVE, 7, EIGHT MONTHS, THE INJECTION HAS BEEN EFFECTIVE IN SLOWING THE TRANSMISSION OF COVID-19, PREVENTING DEATH AND ALSO HOSPITALIZATION FROM COVID-19.
I ASSUME, TO MY COLLEAGUES IN THE FRONT LINE, THINK OF THE PATIENT'' S YOU ARE OFFERING. THEY APPRECIATE YOU AS GOOD EXAMPLE. THEY TRUST FUND YOUR VOICE AS A HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONAL. WHAT YOU STATE TO THEM OR THE EXAMPLE THAT YOU OFFERED TO THEM MAKES A HUGE DIFFERENCE IN THEIR DECISION TO ULTIMATELY GET VACCINATED. I CONSIDER THE TRUST FUND THAT PEOPLE TAKE INTO THE FUNCTION I OFFER, VERY FORTUNATE. ALSO, AS, I AM HUMBLED. I NEED TO MAKE CERTAIN THE INFO I OFFER TO PEOPLE IS BACK UP BY ACTION.
THAT ACTIVITY IS ACQUIRING VACCINATED OURSELVES. WE NEED TO MAINTAIN OUR WORKFORCE HEALTHY. WE ARE OVERRUN, WE ARE EXHAUSTED. VOLUMES HAVE ACTUALLY CONSIDERABLY ENHANCED IN HOSPITALS ARE STRESSED TO THE MAX. WE REQUIREMENT TO REMAIN HEALTHY, REMAIN WORKING AND ALSO BE A POSITIVE FUNCTION MODEL FOR THOSE INDIVIDUALS IN OUR COMMUNITY SO WE CONTAINER CONSERVE MORE LIVES. >> > > SOME LOUISIANA NURSES THREATENING TO QUIT AFTER A MAJOR HEALTHCARE FACILITY SYSTEM STATED IT WOULD NEED VACCINATIONS. HEALTHCARE FACILITIES, NATIONWIDE AS YOU KNOW ARE UNDERSTAFFED. WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES OF INJECTION REJECTION FROM HEALTHCARE EMPLOYEES? >> > > I THINK THERE ARE PROSPECTIVE ONCE. WE NEED TO LOOK AT THE STAFFING SCENARIO IN THOSE HEALTHCARE FACILITIES. I DO NOT INTEND TO NECESSARILY PERPLEX THE STAFFING PROBLEM WITH A SPECIFIC PERCENT OF REGISTERED NURSES THAT WISH TO LEAVE THEIR POSITION BECAUSE THEY DO NOT NECESSARILY INTEND TO GET IMMUNIZED.
I WOULD SAY MY CONVERSATION WITH NURSES THAT I KNOW, MUCH OF THE REASON WHY NURSES ARE LEAVING AND ALSO WHY WE HAVE A SCARCITY IS NOT NECESSARILY BECAUSE THEY DO NOT INTEND TO GET VACCINATED, IT IS EVEN MORE REGARDING THE EXHAUSTION, THE STRESS, THE OVERWHELMING PROBLEM PLACED ON THESE INDIVIDUALS WHEN THEY GO TO FUNCTION. I ASSUME THE EFFECT OF THE REQUIREDS TIN BE VARIOUS BASED ON EACH LOCALITY. I BELIEVE EACH REGION AND ALSO FEDERAL GOVERNMENT REQUIRES TO WORK OUT WITH THOSE CERTAIN GROUPS IN THOSE CERTAIN REGIONS AND ALSO, CREATE A TIMELINE. THE MESSAGE I WOULD PROVIDE TO MY NURSING ASSOCIATES ON THE CUTTING EDGE IS, WE HAD TO DO THIS. THIS BECOMES PART OF OUR NURSING METHOD. OUR CAPACITY TO TAKE A LOOK AT THE SCIENCE AND INFORM OUR CLIENTS REGARDING WHAT IS RIGHT. I THINK THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION FOR THIS IS THAT THE NURSES OUGHT TO GET VACCINATED. AS WELL AS SAYING THE VACCINATION MAY NOT BE RISK-FREE FOR THEY HAVE PERSONAL OBJECTIONS TO THE VACCINATION IS HELPFUL TO EXPLAIN THEIR SETTING BUT, AT THE VERY SAME TIME, WE HAVE TO CONSIDER THE COMMUNITY.
TAKE A LOOK AT THE TRANSMISSION RATE, THE HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS AND ALSO THE REALITY THAT PEOPLE THAT HAVE OTHER MEDICAL CONDITIONS CAN NOT NECESSARILY GET TREATMENT BECAUSE BEDS ARE FULL WITH INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE COVID-19 19 AND ARE EXTREMELY NOT VACCINATED. >> > > WHAT THEY SAY I WORKED A YEAR AND ALSO A FIFTY PERCENT THROUGHOUT THIS PANDEMIC, I HAVE GIVEN MY ALL, I DID NOT COVID-19 OVER THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF, WHY DO I NEED TO BE INJECTION? >> > > THAT IS An EXCELLENT QUESTION. I HAVE HEARD IT FROM LOTS OF MY NURSING COLLEAGUES, A LOT OF WHOM I COLLABORATED WITH WHEN I FIRST STARTED MY JOB. IT IS A TOUGH DISCUSSION TO HAVE WITH INDIVIDUALS I TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION MY BUDDIES. INDIVIDUALS I CONSIDER MY COWORKERS ON THE FRONT LINE. EVENTUALLY, WHEN I LOOK AT THIS, I NEED TO PHONE CALL OUT WHAT IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE OPTION FOR INDIVIDUALS I OFFER. I GOT INVOLVED IN THIS WORK NOT TO HURT INDIVIDUALS, I OBTAINED RIGHT INTO THIS WORK TO AID INDIVIDUALS. EQUALLY AS I WOULD CALL MY COLLEAGUES IF THEY DO NOT CLEAN THEIR HANDS GOING IN BETWEEN AREAS OR MAKING A SCIENTIFIC ERROR THEY MAY NOT HAVE IDENTIFIED OR WERE MALICIOUSLY WANTING TO PROMOTE.
I WOULD CALL THEM OUT. MY ROLE AS WELL AS MY DUTY IS TO THE CLIENT. IT IS NOT NECESSARILY TO MY OTHER NURSES. I THINK MANY NURSES COMPREHEND THAT. MOST MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS UNDERSTAND THAT. WE FUNCTION IN AN ATMOSPHERE FOR BEHOLD ONE ANOTHER PERSON ACCOUNTABLE. SOMETIMES WE DO HAVE DISAGREEMENTS BUT IF WE ARE GOING TO REMAIN TO OVERCOME THIS PANDEMIC IT IS NOT BY AVOIDING THE INJECTION IT IS BY GETTING VACCINATED AND ALSO SHOWING OUR PATIENTS, FAMILY, PALS, THE PEOPLE THAT TRUST IS OUTSIDE THE HEALTHCARE FACILITY THAT VACCINES ARE SAFE, EFFECTIVE AS WELL AS YOU ARE EAGER TO OBTAIN VACCINATED SO YOU CAN PROGRAM IT WORKS AS WELL AS IT IS SAFE. >> > > IT.
