Update:
Cough is about gone which is pretty amazing considering people struggle with that for weeks. I might still have a little fatigue, but then again, might just be due to being stuck at home. The last real tangible thing left is night sweats, but no fever or chills, just waking up sweaty. I'm wondering if it could be unrelated to covid though. Either way, is this something to be concerned with? Or maybe just a long covid effect to ride out?

The moves by Mills will be too little too late. Even if those two larger hospitals in my state receive the federal clinical support, it’s just not going to be enough if things keep snowballing as they have been. Each day is worse than the one before it and we have already run out of time and so many resources.
Today actually wasn’t a horrible day for me as inpatient critical care in the ICU (my unit yesterday) came to a halt late afternoon. In the ED, they stabilized a cardiac arrest patient as well as a drug overdose patient which resulted in them both being intubated and placed on a ventilator. Since our extended ICU is at capacity due to COVID patients, there were calls out to nearby hospitals to take these new ventilator patients. Nobody had any beds, and if they did, they didn’t have the coverage. Therefore, we were stuck with them.
While my day was stressful due to feeling the stress from nursing administration trying to place these patients in rooms capable or critical care needs and nurses (both unavailable), I wasn’t able to continue with our plans for the day in the ICU. Much of what I do requires collaboration with the pulmonologist/intensivist, as well as nurses and nobody was available.
This means I wasn’t able to extubate an otherwise ready patient (not COVID) as nobody would have been available to monitor/care for him afterwards. The other issue is that one of our unvaccinated intubated COVID patients was maxed out with ventilator pressures and oxygen with an SpO2 of 89%.
This is the point when we have to prone them -again, but we can only do the flipping during the day when resources are available as this process takes 6 people- plus the intensivist. This patient did not end up getting prone due to our hospital being OVERWHELMED. There was a family meeting planned for today to discuss their wishes at this point, but I’m not sure he made it though the night regardless.
Of course these are just a few examples, but why wait until resources are completely exhausted before intervening.

I think night sweats can be caused by a lot of things. do you feel dehydrated by chance? try to keep the remedies simple. id use the shower for hydrotherapy (getting really hot then cold) and I have heard that inhaling eucalyptus oil vapor is really good for the lungs. some doctor recommended those things in a podcast I saw recently. there's a few studies on the eucalyptus oil, check them out

It's interesting that you mention the night sweats. I didn't have them at all in march when I had covid but in June I experienced it a bit and I just figured it was carb flu as I was extremely low carb (cutting) and I'm a high carb person usually. Makes me wonder if I was fighting reinfection and my antibodies were at work. I know in Sept we had extreme contact with covid again and everyone else that shared that exposure with my wife and I did indeed get their first case of covid. My wife and I experienced a saturday morning where we were a little winded on a walk with slight stomach issues for a few hours but then it all passed, so I again think it was our bodies getting a natural booster.
as far as fatigue goes, I always feel that way after having a bad cold that keeps me from going to work for a day or two. anytime sickness knocks me down for a couple days I feel like it takes a week to get back to normal. But when i had covid I feel like the fatigue did last a few weeks longer than usual. My buddy who used to coach for me and is still a coach and avid CrossFitter felt the fatigue and was winded for probably 6-8 weeks. That said, he did not take nearly as good care of himself. I'm not belittling it though, it's just anecdotal.
From the day the vax was released until this summer I had not honestly known a single vax injured person so my decision to not get the shot was a gut feeling not based upon personal up close observation. however in the past 2 months I have seen 2 people in the ICU directly due to the vax, one in a comma, and three women with extreme feminine issues. two of which went from massive unusual bleeding to other sicknesses (a month of vomiting for one, massive headaches, fatigue and hair loss in the other). the ages of these victims is 58 and 70 for the ICU's, 20s for two of the women, one 30.

Yeah, I can tell I need more water after the sweating. And yes, night sweats can be from lots of things. I'm hoping it's just a lingering side effect from the quercetin which caused several side effects that seem to be waning slowly. I recently learned quercetin stimulates the estrogen receptor alpha, and that could easily have an effect on night sweats among other things from what I know of with estrogen issues. To further prove that point, libido is still shot as well.

I can tell when I 'appear' to have high testosterone 'symptoms' (haven't been tested) I risk high estrogen symptoms. sometimes if libido and aggression are through the roof I'm only a rock skip and a jump away from feeling menopausal lol.

LOL my hometown had 4,000 people in it when I was born and now has around 10k inside city limits. which seems like a lot to me. My mom's home town is Flatrock, IN. which claims a population of 1500 but as you can see here, that's hard to believe:

All-cause mortality in Germany is rapidly rising
Alex Berenson
Dec 10
During the second half of November Germany - the largest country in Europe - had a death rate almost 25% above normal, compared to 17% above normal in the first half of the month.
These extra deaths are mostly NOT from Covid.
For all of November, Germany reported almost 15,000 extra deaths. Excess deaths were almost normal in the spring and early summer; they have sharply risen since then.
Germany’s mass vaccination campaign for most adults began late. On May 1, only 8 percent of German adults were fully vaccinated. On September 1, 61 percent were.
Is anyone even going to start asking questions, or are the public health authorities just too scared of what the answers might be?

I have trouble equating a response to violence from the left, with the violence that was initiated from the left. The left says 'words are violence'. Yeah? Cool. Then what is forced vaccination? Murder? Good to know.....so you won't be mad when someone punches you in the face because you are forcing them to vaccinate. Hey, this is the equation you laid out for us, these are your definitions, asshole. Those same 'words are violence' morons call the sacking of American cities last year 'blowing off a little steam'.

We are a society that has lost nuance. These young people grow up in an age where if they watch let’s say a police brutality video algorithms will see that as an interest and recommend more police brutality videos. This happens long enough people who live on these platforms begin to think this spans all of reality. Then all it takes is some outspoken spiteful people, many times intellectuals, to focus that negative energy and conflict ensues. Add to all of this the age of emotionalism we live in and now there is a clear cut way to avoid pesky things such as nuance or statistics.
It’s a real problem. I have young ones so I can not be black pilled about all of this, but I admit it is challenging.

Lots of truth in that; it’s not like most people are going to avoid internet use in modern society so you get all the drawbacks we never had to deal with or consider messing with our development. I am juuuust old enough that I didn’t get a cell phone until I started driving. Phone books were still how you looked up numbers and you still talked to girls to ask for their phone number to call & talk in real time. The human interaction element is getting stripped down more & more and it’s affecting society for the worse it seems.

in order for the russians not to have busted us out would have to of involved a conspiracy with the russians--there is absolutely no way we could have pulled off a hoax without the russians being in on it...
just for speculation, if the russians conspired with us to fake the moon walk what other conspiracies could the russians and the US be involved in?

Children and pets- 2 of the most innocent lives on the planet- do not harm them!!!! I'm not hugely religious but I do believe........even if people don't- no one can deny that all religion teaches basic human kindness and morals- the lack of religion today is the biggest cause for the increase in atrocities we see today.... in my opinion

Things get less expensive as efficiency improves, not necessarily technology. You are associating developing rocket systems capable of achieving escape velocity with TVs made in an Asian sweatshop
. All manners of spaceflight continue to be enormously expensive and specialized, regardless of whoever Richard Branson and Jeff Bezos are taking into sub-orbital space on a bi-monthly basis.Manned spaceflight to the moon is also cost-prohibitive from a political standpoint. Spending money on The Moon for something that's already been done, while special interests are demanding a bigger piece of the pie, here on terra firma, isn't going to fly. Literally.

look at what is in space-satellites, U.S. satellites are regularly attacked by china and russia, and china will soon surpass the US and become the dominant force in space-why do you think the chinese are investing so heavily in space if it isn't important?
why do you think democrats agreed with trumps space force--i don't see biden cancelling space force like he has every other thing trump was involved with-space is absolutely necessary...
the space program wasn't politically popular back in the 60s either until kennedy sold it to the public-let me tell you there was serious division among the people back then, i mean serious division maybe close to how it is today--but when neil armstrong said those magic words we were united in our pride of being Americans-it was the uniting event of my lifetime!!!
ONE SMALL STEP FOR MAN
ONE GIANT LEAP FOR MANKIND
it was a real moment in history watching the moon landing, i will never forget that moment.
maybe trump was thinking of the apollo space mission when he said MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? i am sure trump remembers how united and proud we all were to be American-ALL OF US, REGARDLESS OF RACE COLOR CREED OR SEX-we were all proud to be Americans.

Bro, you're way overboard. I never said investing in space wasn't important. I told you that sending a man to The Moon is cost prohibitive. Been there, done that.

It’s no secret that Trump remains my hero. We all know he was removed from his position of power because he was a roadblock in solidifying the New World Order.
Well it wasn’t so long ago that everything was just fine in my book. Then numerous extreme measures were implemented by the corrupt to remove Trump from office and here we are.

So apparently our gracious federal government granted our Governor’s request..
Starting this coming weekend and running through Thursday, December 23, 14 federal clinicians, including physicians, nurses, and paramedics, will supplement existing staff at Maine Medical Center to provide care for those with COVID-19 and other serious medical issues.
