Odd how the spectrum plays out is it not?

If you have to ask the question, you most likely would not understand the answer.

I don't think they are saying that. That may be what they are thinking, but their remarks have been professional and related to the science.

Do you speak for all nurses now? You seem to be coming off that way.

Actually all of public health policy was created mostly by nurses. Look it up. =)

Nobel Prize winning doctor (Bruce Beutler):

“These people act like they are returning as conquering heroes — and they should be treated as conquering heroes, but part of being a conquering hero means making sure no one gets infected by you. Just look at the the foolish quarantine where astronauts came back from the moon [where there were no germs] and in this case, we know there is an infection.”

It is the way all nurses in the United States are trained in all nursing schools. You are not yet grasping what it means to be a nurse. Let's keep trying. It's kind of like a mother and child but on a professional level.
