Looking for a table on marketplace and wondering if I am the only one that finds it extremely annoying when people post ads as “free” or “$1” but then in the description says something like “tables start at $690.”

Nurse redeployment & ICU capacity - LONG thread.
Nurses aren't interchangeable. We're highly skilled, educated, evidence-informed professionals.
The @canadanurses certifies 22 specialties from premature babies to burns to hospice, though there are almost 100 specialties.

Dr. Verna Yiu says there are 310 Albertans in ICU, 226 of them with COVID-19.
Says that's an ICU record for Alberta.
The average admissions is 23+ per day over the past five days.
Says they can only keep up in ICU because people are dying.

My conversations with young patients who are severely SOB with COVID riddled lungs and are requiring maximal oxygen support/ICU care.
Me: Did you get vaccinated?
Patient: No
Me: Why not?
Patient: I was scared of the vaccine.
😔
Why aren’t people scared of COVID-19???

Kenney, on cash for vaccine holdouts: "I wish we didn’t have to do this!"
Narrator: They didn’t have to do this. Others have done vaccine passports.

"Here in Edmonton, at the Royal Alex, one of the busiest emergency departments in western Canada, they had to close 18 beds, nearly half its capacity, because there aren’t enough front-line health-care workers to operate safely."

I love stampede, but I sure as hell don’t love the UCP
"I’ve never seen the Calgary Stampede perhaps be politicized the way it has been recently."
For @Today_AB, I dug into why and how #Stampede2021 became such a polarizing symbol of Alberta’s reopening, and what it could mean for the event: politicstoday.news/alberta-t…

You know what will help with this? Wage reductions. For sure.
Seriously. These staff shortages are occurring at hospitals across Alberta. This is dangerous.
But it’s also avoidable.
I don’t accept that it has to be this way and you shouldn’t either.
