Hospitals should not spread disease.

The government needs to require hospitals to implement infection prevention, and stop sickening patients with a preventable disease. Healthcare workers need to mask, and covid patients need to be isolated from uninfected patients. actionnetwork.org/letters/hospitals-should-not-spread-disease/

I don't want to get sicker if I have to go to the hospital.

Yet we hear story after story about people getting infected with preventable virus in hospitals because of failure to implement the most basic of infection controls. Why did they stop trying to prevent spread? Perhaps because it's not required by the government.

Below is my letter to elected representatives in government. Please feel free to use this form to send it to your representatives - this form works for the U.S. and Canada. If you'd prefer to send your own letter directly which is more effective actually, please feel free to copy my letter and send it in whatever form you prefer to your government representatives.

The government needs to require hospitals to implement infection prevention, and stop sickening patients with a preventable disease. Healthcare workers need to wear N95 / respirator masks, and covid patients need to be isolated from uninfected patients. Common sense has been abandoned in many hospitals. Unmasked nurses entering the rooms of covid positive patients. Healthcare workers working while sick with covid or flu. Cancer units without mask requirements. Hospitals that mix covid patients with other patients. All of this is preventable harm, and should be prevented.
