Covid21 nursing shortage

 There's lots of news lately about understaffing at medical facilities because of the stresses of the endless pandemic in the U.S.

 But what would members of "the greatest generation" have to say to this? You know the generation who endured the Great depression, the second world war followed by the korean war then the Vietnam war.  

Those four consecutive conflicts lasted for a bit longer than three months or six months or two years. Not counting the depression the three conflicts spanned from 1941 until 1973 yet soldiers had to fight, civilians suffered losses, the economy had to make major and prolonged adjustments and veterans returned to both praise and scorn some with major mental and physical injuries, others to broken families, alcoholism and homelessness.  Yet the United States of America got through it all and marched on. 

So is this "war" so different is the covid virus enemy and the climate change enemy and the multimedia disinformation enemy going to BEAT THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA down so low it will never raise its head again?  Only history will tell this time too.
