Nick Reed PODCAST: 01.04.22 - COVID Stories
Hour 3 - Nick Reed talks about a variety of topics in the news, including: The AP has a "story" about Ashli Babbitt and her personal life. In the piece, they smear her and victim blame. Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) apparently believes that it is now safe enough to travel cross country to Florida for a holiday getaway in the sun, but not safe enough to travel to the Capitol building in Washington, D.C., for her taxpayer-funded job. After Republicans criticized AOC, she claimed it's because of “deranged sexual frustrations” and suggested Republicans seek “therapy.” New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed legislation that went into effect Saturday that declares racism a "public health crisis." CoxHealth CEO Steve Edwards answered questions regarding changes to isolation guidelines, masking and more. After implementing a coronavirus mandate for health care workers this fall, Rhode Island has now opened an option for COVID-positive health care workers to continue working if their facility is facing a staffing crisis.
