Reply to comment by [deleted] in Mount Sinai investigating newborn’s death during NYC nurses' strike by CasinoMagic

>These people, all of them, killed a baby.

A hospital that understaffed their hospital may have led to the death of a child. There's one entity at fault here.

Nurses aren't slaves. They aren't saints either. They aren't required to stick around in unsafe situations and give their labor out of the goodness of their hearts. I know we all expect this of women especially and women dominated fields, but it's bullshit. These nurses went on strike because the hospital refused to have safe staffing ratios. The nurses were yelling outside the building that patients are in danger because of the ratios. If anyone died because of that it's because of the hospital administrators. Period.

You are wrong. Firemen and police cant strike, so they’re slaves?

These nurses aren't in public hospitals. The Taylor Laws don't apply to them.

You are wrong. But do go on.

Hospitals should be covered the same. Their greed caused this.

You got it! The hospital would be at fault for unsafe staffing ratios. Not the nurses who went on strike warning everyone about their unsafe staffing ratios.

Damn those greedy money grubbing nurses asking for frivolous things like adequate staffing. I can't tell if you're a corporate brownnoser or you just don't understand what the strike was about.

The strike was about money and power, nothing else.

It's pretty obvious you have no idea what the strike was about, which isn't really excusable considering both sides acknowledged what the main sticking points were. I have no idea what you get out of being so aggressively ignorant.

I apologize for calling you a troll then. You're just aggressively stupid. I don't understand how people like you can be so confident in your opinions despite knowing nothing about a topic. The hospital admins and the strikers both acknowledged staffing was a key issue here, you're the only low effort troll pretending otherwise.

Notice how you're still ignoring their repeated calls to address staffing numbers? You're so committed to pushing this greedy nurses narrative that you're ignoring what half the negotiation was about. You're a disingenuous troll.
