Today I speak with Chelsea Patton who is a registered nurse from the East Coast who weighs in on her experience during the pandemic. She talks about how fear caused many unnecessary deaths, how the initial medical response missed the mark, and how vaccine reactions are underreported. Chelsea is involved in fighting for nurses' rights within the nurses union and in political action committees that help preserve medical autonomy and patient care.
