OSHA ends efforts to establish COVID-19 safety standard in healthcare settings
https://www.aha.org/news/headline/2025-01-13-osha-ends-efforts-establish-covid-19-safety-standard

OSHA gives up on trying to establish a COVID-19 protocol in healthcare settings. The American Hospital Association (AHA) takes credit in spiking the effort.

Pure evil.

Its not just pure evil its also moronic like totally brainless like total lack of intelligent behavior going on here!

So frustrating I swear this covid thing is obviously not behind us by any means. It drives me nuts there are still covid outbreaks and now there's even more viruses because covid only put us all in a weakened state (it weakens the immunity system)..

How dare OSHA even imply covid is over by stating
"the end of the COVID-19 public health emergency"

OSHA is supposed to protect people you know like there are laws about wearing hardhats for construction workers like there should be laws about wearing safety masks for those who work around four or five airborne diseases on a daily basis.. you know occupational hazards. There are occupational hazards that continue to exist  such as germs from all the airborne diseases and so safety standards in healthcare settings would include  masks rubber gloves, air purifiers, disinfectant procedures, quarantining patients and even guests in waiting room procedures, doctor & staff interaction safety measures.

All I know is somebody has to lay down some rules for safety that's for sure.  We (healthcare and its patients) have to prevent illnesses and diseases regardless if whether covid numbers are high in each area.. we (healthcare and its patients) have to prevent the numbers from going up rather than just reacting after the numbers of illness escalate.

There's no motorcycle wreck or construction workers having a crisis right now with head injuries going on but we still have to uphold helmet and hardhat laws on the road and in the workplace. Healthcare must adopt safety protocols and keep those safety regulations in place from hereon. You can't lift the safety protocols and regulations every time people start getting better. That would be like erroneously saying "oh motorcycle guys aren't having head injuries anymore so let's not have any more helmet laws.".. duh.

There needs to be safety protocols and rules in Healthcare and they need to keep the safety protocols and rules in place and not change it like we don't change helmet laws for motorcyclists after it works by cutting down on serious injury.

Take 9/11 for example Healthcare is behaving as if they beat all airborne diseases once and for all... its like airports telling us today we beat terrorism once and for all and now we aren't going to x ray baggages or check out suspicious looking characters that look like they might blow up or hijack a plane.. that's what healthcare facilities are acting like there is no more threat and they don't have to check baggage or put a mask on and everything is the way it used to be when us old timers  were kids still in school before covid and monkey pox or whooping cough made a come back, before people shot back and forth in jets and went on giant cruise ships carrying diseases from afar overnight or before birds started making cows and people sick. That's what health care wants

..they live in the good old days healthcare wants to live in fantasy world where no one gets sick , covid doesn't exist anymore and they beat airborne diseases once and for all with internal medicine and nobody has to wear a mask or wash hands or follow any new rules because 'its all good'.

You know it's like that show "little house on the prairie" where the good doctor with a kind maskless face shows up with his black bag full of shots or pills and stethoscope and that's all he needs and nothing bad happens. That's what healthcare wants ..they wanna live in the dark ages before they discovered there was more than just one or two ways to fight and prevent germs, illnesses, and diseases.

Many healthcare people go maskless and behave as if  they are on
"little house on the prairie"

Healthcare,
Take more safety precautions than Little House On The prairie!

All jesting aside, I truly think that one of the biggest problems this pandemic faces and the next pandemic will face is that many people just want to live in the past. That may sound simplistic but I think it's a good theory as to why things go wrong during pandemics. People just want to live in the past and that leads to all sorts of denial and lack of action that they could otherwise take.

To me its like many people might erroneously say to themselves and others " we just do what we've done in the past like take mumps and measles shots in school like we are supposed to etc. and we'll be alright ..that's all we have to do"but I don't think that's enough considering the mutations and the number of various illnesses out there plus their rate of transmission and unpredictability.. I think healthcare has to take more action in the healthcare facility to protect themselves and one another and their patients. One must consider the current unhappiness healthcare facilities are in including one in four healthcare workers suffer from mental distress according to the lates news so obviously this is pressures from too many patients and too much illness.
