You don't think it's a bad thing that our medical professionals are tasked with extra time consuming, lower-level duties that take away from their ability to provide care?
Also, that's quite a disrespectful statement about hospital volunteers. I'd expect that anyone willing to give their free time to help at a hospital would be the easiest to get on board with safety protocols.

If the safety protocols aren’t the issue, then what are you proposing is the purpose of this restriction? They are volunteers, so this isn’t a cost saving measure. That’s why I’m guessing it’s safety. I have great respect for hospital volunteers. I just don’t know how rigorous the protocols are. Maybe someone who works for a hospital could chime in on that.
The best way to avoid overwhelming healthcare workers is to wear a mask, wash your hands, and social distance.

That’s why I asked for someone who works for a hospital to comment. Otherwise we’re throwing our worthless opinions back/forth on this. FYI - liability would mean avoiding the legal repercussions of a safety issue.
Nice ad hominem, BTW. Someone told me that was the ultimate sign of losing an argument.

Many times seems like he is intentionally losing the election. Gettting mad at Dr Fauci is beyond silly, but more importantly for his re-election efforts ... it is counter productive.
A doctors job is to provide educated advice. And to be cautious. I don’t follow everything he says because I know he is erring on the side of extreme caution, but the man is an expert in his field. Just a dumb argument for Trump to fight.

I'd agree with this...but I'm still voting for him over the lump of meat that the Democrats have running as the Anti-Trump candidate and the party backing him because they want extreme policy and massive government programs that would bankrupt Americans. Also the timing of this crappy year, IMHO, is on their back in their cheerleading for the Virus, Racial division, and anything else that will hurt the American economic machine...It's as if they have made a 2020 deal with the Devil to defeat trump and to hell with the American people that it lays waste too in it's wake. This is on them, not Trump.

As someone who works at a hospital we suspended the Volunteer program in the very beginning out of fear that they would get the virus, get very ill or die and then maybe sue the system. So it's both. Also, I think some should have been given the choice to work and sign a waiver if they wanted to do that...In some instances, however, it's best they don't work if they are over certain ages or have health issues. However in the past this would not have been an issue. Volunteers, in the past, are willing to take on the risk of getting a virus or other illnesses in order to serve the public...It's just that this one was so new and hyped... and we didn't know all their risk...as time goes on I hope we can get them back as they do make a huge difference in patient and especially family care, and guest services. They are missed big time in my area.
