"We are tired." I'm a respiratory therapist in Texas, and I felt this in my soul.
Thank you for everything you’ve done and are doing as a frontline healthcare worker.

The way Stephen talked about COVID was eerie. It wasn't angry, it wasn't sad, it was just...tired. Tired and to the point.
He reminds me of a WW2 soldier who just survived the Normandie invasion knowing that there are many more battles to come.
You could tell his soul was weary and he sees the future. He can see the next wave like this, and he has lost almost all confidence that it’s going to get better. I want him to know that we thank him and others like him for continuing to care for all of us. And we should tell him THANK YOU by getting vaccinated.

Here in Jamaica our hospitals have patients sitting in wheelchairs and the floor while hooked up to oxygen waiting to be treated. Our healthcare workers are exhausted and stressed...just 3 nights ago, a doctor in our cul-de-sac fell asleep about 500 feet from home and drove into a neighbour’s fence; thankfully no one but the car and fence were hurt.
Our sole oxygen provider ran out on Friday and supplies had to be rationed for 3 days before some was able to be imported - no matter how much planning we can do, infrastructure (hospitals, ambulances, oxygen tanks etc) around the world simply cannot keep up with the demand caused by this virus.
@@jsnx9067 i really hope covid does not come knocking at your doorstep or that of your loved ones. I know several people working in healthcare and the virus is ravaging the Western region of Jamaica currently. Please don’t get to the point where you say i should have known better. Get vaccinated!
@@jsnx9067 how can you believe these front line workers are not being honest? Is America a ship of fools?
@@jsnx9067 ignorant troll
This is bs this virus is around for 18 months and we are still lacking on every aspect. Why haven't the hospitals gotten their act together?
@@jsnx9067 Why would people lie? Why would I lie that my nana's carer's son brought covid into the home giving it to his mother who gave it to my nana who then passed away from it? I wouldn't wish covid on anyone, nor the desperation and destruction its path of death and grief causes. We are so fortunate to have access to vaccines here in the western world. My nana passed before having the chance for a vaccine to work.
I'm a nurse an OR nurse. Another bad thing is my father had a Hemorrhagic Stroke last week. Only on his 5th hospital an ICU bed has vacancy. After 8 hours of travel going from one hospital to another. Hospital has 40 to 50 waiting list. Please if you don't have to leave home please don't so that people that needs medical and surgical attention can have access to our hospital. Thank you from a nurse and a son.
I’m so sorry for your loss, my condolences. People not getting vaccinated is hurting so many people not just those who have covid. 😢
Cesar Sabater, some of my friends and I decided to order everything online to help stop the spread . We don’t gather for anything . We honor our medical workers that way . I hope that now that the authorities are approving early treatments you folks will have less of a burden , since a lot of people will recover fast with those treatments . Thank you for your sacrifice and service . 🌺
I'm also an OR nurse. I just want to put it out there that we should have the right as medical staff to refuse treatment to people who chose not to get vaccinated. They have their rights and we should have ours. Sorry, I'm just venting. I don't really mean that. But I do in a way.

@@productofthe80s61 my father survived stroke 😊 🙏. He just had a hard time finding ICU bed. I agree that we just need to be aware that there are people that more vulnerable to the virus. Our actions could jeopardise their health.
I never thought about how much trauma our medical staff are being subjected to. Bless them all for the work they are doing, and when it's over ,I hope they get the support they need too.

@@TheFatblob25 And fast food workers, life is BRUTAL. That’s why I stay in my pivot. Single as a pringle.
Don't think about it long. I remember in OR we had no beds due to COVID, and there was a guy in the shock room that needed stat surgery. A patient was occupying a bed died, Doc said well now we got a bed. Its dark humor but its to mask how fucked up situation is. Sitting down thinking about the people who didnt make it, you gotta stay busy and hopefully you can forget about it.
Which is why I dont work at Children's Hospitals, can't imagine seeing kids dying.
Bless the people still actually there fighting a preventable wave. After more than a year in, I had to leave the field. We don't have the support. Get the damn vaccine
This is 100% accurate. As a nurse in an ICU I am tired of seeing people die from COVID. Tired of the suffering. Tired of the fear in peoples eyes before they get intubated. We are all tired. Please I cannot say it enough. We don’t want to see you in the hospital, please get the vaccine. It works.

I was in NOLA a couple of months ago. Ninety percent of people were NOT wearing masks indoors or social distancing from one another. I didn't even visit Bourbon Street because there were too many people on it and I was very concerned that I would be at risk of getting COVID. A very dangerous situation. Shortly after I left, COVID numbers began to rise. I have the upmost sympathy for the medical professionals who are baring the brunt of other people's selfishness.

@@sayloltothetroll6806 If you want to risk your health, that's your choice. But it should also be the choice of health care providers to make you a last priority if you get sick.

So if you don't value your health or that of those in your community, why should the hospital you'll likely need in the coming months? Assuming you don't die at home first.

As of last month you have to wear a mask and show vaccination status before entering a bar or restaurant in nola
There are a lot of things I don't like about living in Massachusetts, but the pandemic has made me appreciate my area a lot more. We have one of the highest vaccination rates, and although masks aren't required indoors, at least 80% of people in the grocery stores I've been to wear them.
My heart goes out to all the frontline workers struggling to fight this virus and the PTSD and trauma they will have to go through will be intense and it's just so sad.
I had to get out of healthcare because of it, seen so many of my favorite residents die
I had a family member in non covid unit in MS, I can’t get the images out of my head, just the under staffing, it was absolutely horrible. My family member died of sepsis, I had to ask for morphine for him. I don’t blame the medical staff because I understand, It was just traumatizing, I pray he forgives me, it’s unbearable thinking about it. We could not even bury him because of the hurricane.

I thankfully didn’t pass it on as the vaccine helps lower the viral load, but still to this day weeks later I still have a cough and fatigue. I am thankful and lucky to have recovered on my own and not need medical help, but I can’t imagine not having the vaccine and having this. Please for your safety, get the vaccine for your health
You did all you could as I have done with having had the booster shot so it's three vaccinations and the mask wearing and carrying hand sanitizer for use when needed.
So far I am fine , aswell as family members who also are vaccinated and take all precautions.
You do what you can and not be foolish like others who won't get vaccinated or wear a mask around others and likely this is whay this virus is hanging on so long with plenty of hosts.
I think the federal government needs to do something about the massive amount of healthcare professionals that will come out of this pandemic suffering from PTSD. Free mental health support, help finding therapy etc.
What is sad is how broken our mental health care system already is. With the state it is in, unless you are rich you will not get decent mental health care in the good ole' US of A. `Merica!

The sad truth is that this will likely not be the last of the surges for the foreseeable future.
I'm a Healthcare worker. I've been at my hospital 34 years. In the past 2 years, I've gotten my ass kicked on a daily basis, pretty much. We are all tired and beyond burnt out. Get your vaccinations and get this over with.
Quit, your health is more important.
I'm waiting to see if this winter will be much much worse for the hospitals than the last - and not because of so-called 'antivaxxers'
the real problem is that people think that the vaccine is enought to come back to normal, no we need to use lysol on our things and mask, the new variants are more contagius.
The first variant gave people blood clots that lead to amputation but the Delta variant is worse. Think about that.

Thank you to all the employees at any hospital. Each and every one of them are affected. We’l never be able to do enough for you. I hope that you all receive any and all mental health assistance you deserve.
When the pandemic finally abates sometime within the next decade it will be interesting to see how many nurses, specialists, and doctors are left and how many have called it quits. I foresee a future where your care is no longer determined by your wealth but by the availability of someone to treat you.
Well, going off the logic of supply and demand, it'll still be determined by your wealth if there's a dearth of medical professionals.
Yes I think this so. Becoming a nurse or doctor has been a one-way ticket to financial security because people are always going to sick at some point. Yes, some pursued for passion. But, plenty were thinking of finances. With this pandemic(and the fact that hospital HAVE LAID OFF WORKERS. Don't let the news lie to you.), I don't think these fields are so cushy and secure anymore. Combined this with the explosion of remote work, we will see potential MDs decide to become UX designers, software developers, and social media managers. Either that, or health tech startups will have to grow and we will see more clinicians working remote efficiently. You will see more telehealth visits than ever before.
I personally know a pre-med who is now pursing software development because of this situation. So its already happening. 😐

I am a doctor and I have started seeing it already. Junior doctors abandoning their previously chosen training field to pursue a career in General Practice or non patient - facing specialties (radiology, microbiology etc) and Nurses leaving the hospitals for community services and rehab facilities. Many of my colleagues are disheartened by the public's behaviour more than the hard work we all had to do and this in my opinion is the main drive.

Truly tragic stories - if only we had, like, some sort of, I don't know, vaccination, to prevent these needless deaths. Oh well...one day, maybe.
delta only exists because of the vaccine, you can still get and spread covid if you are vaccinated. do what you want with this information
@@christiannevarez97 won’t die though
@@christiannevarez97 Except it existed before the vaccine began being administered, so wow, that's some next-level stupid. Is this the MyPillow guy's burner account?
@@BizzeeB if it existed before why doesn’t the vaccine protect against the delta variant? it seems weird that they wouldnt want you to be safe against delta if they knfw
@@christiannevarez97 wow, you really don't understand much about anything, do you?
Keep these coming. Just need to be reminded about how severe it is.
is anyone else pro-vax but on the fence about this vaccine?
i've gotten all other vaccines no problem but the whole "this is new and untested" really hits me..
i just think about past things like "radium and thalidomide" and how governments have ok'd medicines that have gone horribly wrong 5 or 10 years down the road
@@getthegoods420 It's 2021. It is not 1921. We have different technologies then we did back 100 years ago. The technology you take for granted today like the technology you used to write that comment would have been thought as witchcraft 100 years ago.
@@getthegoods420 Yes. I am with you. I am NOT anti-vax or anti-science. I have faithfully worn my mask the past 19 months. I socially distance. I don't gather in large groups. But my intuition is telling me there is something not right with this vaccine. I will listen to my intuition any day.
You don't need to hear no more you already been sold on it I guarantee you they can get you to swallow the biggest pill ever made just because they told you that that's what you need to do

My Love and Support goes out to every nurse, doctor, PCA, RT. You got this !! You will survive and you will prevail ❣️
Did my part and got my shot. I will get the booster too. I wish more people would come together for the benefit of humanity and realise their selfishness is causing pain. Get vaccinated and stay safe everyone ❤️
These poor nurses. They want to do their best and help others, but who do they end up helping? The people who won't even help themselves.
Get vaccinated!

Hell on Earth
This is terribly sad and heart breaking 💔
America's Healthcare system failed with just the slightest pressure. This is a failure not just of our systems but us as a people. I can't imagine the mental toll its taking on our Healthcare workers.
the failures are the people not getting vaccinated, and then going to the hospital and taking up all the beds ... the system didn't fail . people did . if you were concerned with the mental well being of hospital staff , youd reconsider what you wrote . . . and id not call the death of 600k people from a highly contagious illness a " slightest pressure " . . .
@Fren sorry I can't take anyone comment seriously with a pepe meme as there pic 😅 also they're quitting in record numbers cus of selfish people who don't wanna get vaccinated an add more strain to an already busted system
@@twistymcslide2 I was saying the failure of us as country. Were supposed to be the biggest an best nation yet you have half the country shouting how they won't get the vaccine. We are not a country that cares about each other.

After breaking my ankle last year, September 5, 2020 I decided to apply to nursing school (applying this fall). This motivates me even more, especially seeing medical professionals that look like me working hard. And people don’t want to believe that this is REAL!
This is sad 😔
It’s also sad that I didn’t go to physical therapy because I literally couldn’t afford the copay. But hey, this is America. 😇 where you have to pay for medical care.. good luck 👍🏿
Lmfao "I decided to apply for nursing school" but hasn't even applied yet lol "applying this fall" ........man just wanted some YT likes cuz you're a clown?
I hope you get in! I just graduated LPN and I'll admit, the pandemic made it harder, but we made it. You got this!!
@@thedoge9590 You can only apply once a year. And it sounds like their deadline is the fall. And they may have had to take prerequisites. Sounds like you're the clown.
My prayers to people who lost their loved one in this delta, being from india i have seen first hand what this virus can do and lost so many friends and family to this virus , i hope everyone gets vaccinated as soon as possible so that infection does not lead to death.
Pointless vaccine
@@clublights-4980 vaccine does not ensure that you will not be infected but will make sure you don’t die after contracting the virus. If you believe that vaccine is pointless, u should talk to the health professionals who study medicines for 10 -15 years who are more knowledgeable than you , i presume you are a high school dropout living out of your basement.
@@AkashSingh-mo1ob Don't inject the poison.
@@rockycomet4587 Bro its not poison , if it saves your life and you should not spread wrong information about the vaccine,
Secondly if you choose to not vaccinate, then you should also not seek medical help if infected and you should not risk the lives of the medical staff who have to look after other patients.
Just because you decided not to vaccinate, you alone should suffer the consequences not the others.
@@AkashSingh-mo1ob @Akash Singh it's pointless to argue with anti vaxxers. Im not the one to wish for others misfortune but guys like these idiots does not deserve health care when they get infected (insured or not).
the anti vaxxers, and maskers need to watch videos like these so they can see how their childish selfishness is creating a societal crisis
@Ace Degenerate Is the flu vaccine fake too? By your logic, both the flu vaccine and the COVID-19 vaccine are both fakes. And it’s a damn shame that you’re a nurse spreading this bullshit.
Dumbest comment I've read all day.
@@supersquirrel7546 THIS IS MAGA COUNTRY!!!
I just did, nothing in this video was revealing other than that they really want to push the jab that doesn’t work. Wonder why?
They do watch this, but they ignore it which makes it even worse. People these days want an echo chamber that confirms what they already WANT to believe. They WANT to hear that it's all a liberal conspiracy because that would justify all the stupidity they wreaked during 2020. They WANT to hear that some anti-parasite dewormer maybe/might/possibly/could/perhaps be effective, because then they could ignore the vaccine! They WANT to hear COVID is no big deal because 99% of people survive (so 1 out of 100 die), while simultaneously being scared shitless of a vaccine (aka "poison") that has a 1 in 100,000+ chance to experience anything remotely more than mild cold symptoms...
They somehow do the mental gymnastics that allows them to simultaneously love Trump but ignore that he takes credit for the vaccine & took the vaccine himself...all while believing the big, bad government is trying to use it to monitor them (which would mean Trump's bad)!
It's deliberate ignorance. Trump taught them if you don't like the facts, just say the opposite enough & contradict it. Eventually if enough people go along with it, we can just ignore reality!
To the nurses: you are doing the best job you can. I wish I could take this strain from you, but know that you are amazing. Your work is appreciated.
These medical frontliners are heaven sent. I pray that they'll be kept safe all throughout.
We won't have another surge if everyone listens and gets vaccinated.
At this point, if you chose not to get vaccinated and catch COVID, you should be left to handle it by yourself…if you’re that selfish then stay home and fight it alone.
Happily.
If they're so sure of the safety of the vaccines then why haven't they put back the liability laws covering them that Trumps Administration lifted for them to begin with?
But even ppl with the vaccine are getting sick. It's basically a symptom suppressor instead of an actual vaccine that stops transmission
Yeah, like the alcoholics, drug users and morbidly obese. SMH grow up.
You are demented. Seek help.
He's right it's appalling that in America doctors are running out of life saving meds from a preventable disease
What preventable disease? Gonorrhea?
@@sayloltothetroll6806 STDs aren’t the only diseases in the world. That’s your big argument after watching people who are actually treating and seeing death every day? Well troll is in your name. Getting me mad about someone dishonoring the dead and the people treating covid patients is your bread and butter so conversation status: deceased. Me status: not angry just worried about the human race
I’m a Doctor in Europe. I qualified a year and a half ago. I’m 24 and all I’ve seen is people die. Nine of my coworkers have committed suicide. Why anyone thinks we would fake this is beyond me. When he talked about PTSD but not getting to the post part- I felt that in my soul.
Thank you to all you health workers.....thank you.
For the nurses and doctors to have to say "it's not fake," "it's real," and "it's not a joke" shows what condition America is in. They are having to take care of the unvaccinated, pure and simple.
Us vs "them"?
That's right, little troll. Dance for your DNC puppetmasters. Oh how high you can kick! Maybe tonight they'll give you some peanuts or a biscuit!
The hard work makes them even more emotional cause there exhausted
Sending hugs 🤗 to all of you that help each patient. You are our hero’s❤️🩹 God Bless you all
Thank you for what you are doing...im so sorry for what your going through..MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILIES
So sorry that we are limited of our care, we are praying and holding every one up in prayers.
Let those who refuse to be vaccinated waive their right to hospital care
That's what I think. Don't like science? Then stay home and see if you survive on your own.
Wish we could do the same to the obese.
@@Eighteenxray No we can only deny medical care to those the leftists disagree with. Remember just a few years ago when healthcare was a right? That changed right quick didn't it?
And now they're doing it on generator. 🙏🏼
god bless those nurses , doctors and health workers. thay are all true heros.
imagine when frontline workers see us in public not doing the right thing like social distancing and the like.
Dr. Stephen Brierre i hope you find some peace and much needed rest soon. Truly broke my heart to see the exhaustion in his eyes. All of the staff they’re just beyond words exhausted. I too work in a major city hospital & everyday it’s getting harder to come in.
To our frontline heroes, you got this. ❤️ we are all eternally grateful.
Thank you for your services，doctors and nurses!
How absolutely heartbreaking for patients and all hospitals medical professionals. God bless you all. 🙏💛 tears are just running down my cheeks. OmG. 🙏💓
I shouldn't just inject myself with sunshine and clorox?
But that's not what it is I'm also curious why don't you want to get vaccinated
yeah!! go ahead it’s all about Freedom 😜😂
Yes, yes you should
No, no... That was for the first variant. For the Delta variant, it's animal heartworm pills.
Speed things up, use embalming fluid.
Front Line Workers are just exhausted...Bless them All
these are this true heroes in this war..let's never forget that...
Not heroes, just propagandists.
It’s sad that these people feel like they need to apologize for showing their frustrations.
It's sad that so many people think this is real.
i know people say this a lot but these people truly are doing gods work
my prayers go out to all of our front line workers across this country you guys are totally awesome
They all sound so tired....Can't believe we are at this point where we have tired nurses have to tell us "This is not a hoax"
Fake news
What a clown you are.
Yesterday we lost a unvaccinated active duty soldier to Covid and today we discharged a vaccinated patient. The only sense I can make of that is maybe the vaccines work.
😂😂😂
My heart goes out to these professionals. 😔
Actors are very professional.
Great info. So much appreciation for the arduous tasks these healthcare professionals are faced with daily.
You are all heroes. Beautiful heroes. Praying for strength for you as you do this exhausting job. ❤️😔🙏🏻
Its really really hard to sympathize with anyone from these areas . This was 100% preventable .
Also did they learn nothing when NYC got ravaged? No they thought it was a joke .
Reality is a bitter pill
Doesn’t make it easier for those who’ve lost loved ones . If you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all . who raised you? oh yeah your tutor you inconsiderate, void of sympathy sad excuse of a person
@@bredin9199 I agree his statement is blunt, but why are people being so naïve? At some point we have to call out the king for not wearing any clothes. Never read the old fable? Just because someone is ignorant and acting foolish doesn't mean we should abide their negligence?

THAT DR MADE ME CRY,NEVER RAISED HIS HEAD ONCE. HE IS NOT ANGRY BUT TIRED
This could've been prevented if everyone got vaccinated. Damnit! 😭 love to you all!! I'm a nurse too and it is literally tearing our heroes apart. Breakdowns, exhaustion love to you all ❤ Godspeed
