webfact Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Nurses at a hospital in Thailand’s southern province of Nakhon Si Thammarat have had to enter quarantine, after a COVID-19 infected patient allegedly refused to disclose their true chronology. At least 10 nurses at Maharaj Nakhon Si Thammarat Hospital expressed their frustration, after they had been in close contact with the infected patient, who had recently travelled from high-risk areas. A provincial public health doctor in Nakhon Si Thammarat, Dr.Charaspong Sukkree, reiterated the importance of disclosing accurate chronologies, as refusal to do so could result in legal action being taken, adding that having 10 nurses in quarantine means that its emergency medicine department will be short staffed.

MrJ2U Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 Nurses need to treat every patient like they have covid-19. Many people don't realize they are affected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megasin1 Posted April 26, 2021 Share Posted April 26, 2021 This one is totally lost on me I'm afraid, how on earth could the covid patient's chronology infect the nurses, if they were potentially exposed to Covid then they are as dumb as dumb could be, it states the patient was a covid patient, therefore they should have been properly protected with PPI. If they are insinuating that the patient was unaware that he/she had Covid then by asking where said patient has been wouldn't help them determine that any more than asking if the patient had eaten an egg and bacon banjo for breakfast. This headline should actually read "Nurses forced to quarantine due to Hospitals' inept admissions system"................................Lord help us all ???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
