10X 3,296 Posted April 7, 2020 The problem is, governor gopher either doesn't recognize nonsense, or fully embraces it as public policy. He closed NJ forests today. What the hell kind of sense does that make? 1 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I read a lot of the parks were mobbed with people not following the distancing guidelines. Not talking the nature trails but picnic grounds, playgrounds and ball fields.

father-of-three 243 Posted April 8, 2020 Newark Beth Israel hospital sounds a little "butt-hurt" here. This may sound a little circular, but control issues have gotten out of control. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And now those folks will drive to PA and NY and stop for gas, stop for coffee, stop to pee. Or will congregate in areas that are already congested.

Tunaman 548 Posted April 8, 2020 Actually, I called one of the Police departments up on the river I fish and they said forget about going fishing. They said you cant even go for a walk in the park never mind park there or walk in there. But if you go to the Division of Fish and game website fishing is listed as one of the activities you CAN do. This is bullshit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can check the status of U.S. National Parks in New Jersey online. This is a really busy area and getting a parking spot is practically impossible unless you get there early during normal times. Closing all NJ parks will only increase the density on the Feds parks still open. Really smart, Gov. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is an interesting situation because the hospital I work at allows employees to use their own equipment. I still go back to my butt-hurt theory because I wonder that if the employee did it quietly the hospital may not have responded the way they did. Just my theory.

The union that represents the hospital purchasing agents and support staff is probably upset, it violated their contract as to who does the purchasing of what products. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly that may be true. I would not work without gear. Either you supply it, let me supply my own, or I stay home. I'm not wearing a trash bag for a gown and a torn off report cover for a face shield. This is supposed to be an emergency. If you want to stand on policy, get bent.

Could be but I doubt it. For example thehospitals have to buy n95 certified masks. kn95 which is a foreign certification can not be used, even though they are better than the offered alternative to the N95... a surgical mask or wrapping a t-shirt around your face. But kn95 masks can be used as long as they don't pay for them. As donations, the FDA stays out of it. But it's donation of product, not cash. Also if they purchased it, donated it, and comingled it with existing supplies without involving the admin that could be problematic in a lot of ways. OSHA stuff, not sharing with other departments kind of politics, etc. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SIGMan Freud 93 Posted April 8, 2020 Dipshit Murphy orders masks for the public in grocery stores. 99.8% of NJ's problem is north of 195. Most southern counties have single digit deaths. I'll wear a mask and proudly write "FU Murphy!" on it. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
