>People are not only coming in with COVID-19, but also pneumonia, **strokes and broken bones**. >Dr. Gary Hemann, who works at MercyOne Medical Center, said **it's hard to tell if reopening everything is putting more people at risk for other illnesses**. Imagine having this genius as your doctor. Can we get the vax status for everyone except the ones with broken bones. Generally strokes and broken bones aren’t contagious and not considered an “illnesses”. Being flooded with Pneumonia in the summertime and he doesn’t find it odd? And he’s seeing a surge in strokes and can’t piece this together? Come on doc, all the pieces are in front of you all you have to do is put it together and make an announcement. >**"As people are getting out and doing more... being in bigger crowds, all that might be something that, again, you get the non-COVID acute illness symptoms as well," Hemann said** What the fuck does that even mean? Strokes and Pneumonia? >"It's what we've been saying over the last year--**wash your hands, wearing masks when you’re in big groups, COVID vaccinations," Ekhardt said**. Remember, always wash your hands, wear a mask and take your vax so you don’t catch a stroke or broken bone. >"If we have a COVID surge on top of this already record-high census, that will be very hard in our community." Maybe this is a vax surge except the broken bone part.
