I'd stay well away from hospitals and doctors as much as possible. They cannot be trusted.
What infuriated me was the degree of theatre and circus we had to contend with when faced with unavoidable necessity of wife's cancer surgery. Fortunately that was 2020 and the insanity had not reached current levels.
Some things we will not be able to avoid. It is why this insanity must be stopped.
My dad (mid 70s) ended up in hospital with pneumonia during this nonsense. No-one was able to see him (jabbed or not), no-one was even allowed into the foyer of the hospital, they had a line on the ground and would aggressively move anyone back who crossed it. He was stuck in hospital for about a week. That length of time is probably tolerable for most people, but I wonder how many old people, stuck in hospitals for extended periods without any access to visitors and only interacting with fully covered up medical staff (effectively dehumanised) would have. Having people visit someone in hospital is good for them, the loneliness and isolation created by excluding all visitors has likely lead to the premature deaths of scores of people. No one asked them if they didn't want any visitors.
This was in a small town hospital, one that I grew up wandering the halls of as a kid as my mum was a nurse there. It's all totally changed now. The nurses are all immigrants now, indian or chinese, they have no connection to the wider community.
