4 off-duty nurses save the lives of people "dying suddenly" of heart attacks; 150 planes grounded by American Airlines alone; 330 "COVID" papers withdrawn for scientific flaws
These numbers don't lie, although "the science" crafted to "explain" them does
From Jerome Dancis (math professor at U. Maryland):
Perhaps nurses’ unions should be bragging about how many lives are saved by off-duty nurses.
Is the following cluster usual or unusual?

American Airlines Struggles With Pilot Deficit, Grounds 150 Aircraft
June 3, 2023
American Airlines, a leading carrier based in Fort Worth, is currently grappling with a significant challenge. The airline is unable to operate approximately 150 of its regional aircraft due to a persistent shortage of pilots, as revealed by CEO Robert Isom.
Speaking at the Bernstein 39th Annual Strategic Decisions Conference, Isom stated, “We would deploy properly to markets that aren’t being served. We would do that today. It’s just we don’t have the pilots.”
This issue arises at a time when the airline industry is witnessing a record demand for travel, particularly during the summer season. However, the capacity to meet this demand is constrained by the lack of pilots, leading to grounded planes and missed opportunities to capitalize on high ticket prices. Isom noted that the situation is more severe than the previous year when the pilot shortage began to significantly affect regional airlines as demand rebounded following the downturn caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Looking ahead, Isom shared that American Airlines expects to acquire more pilots for its regional network over the next 18 to 24 months. Once these pilots are onboard, the grounded aircraft will be reintroduced into service in a manner that is expected to generate favorable unit revenues. He stated, “American anticipates getting more pilots over the next 18 to 24 months for the regional network, and those aircraft would be put back into service in a fashion that is going to produce unit revenues that are very favorable.”
However, the challenge of pilot shortage is not unique to American Airlines. The airline industry as a whole is projected to face a deficit of nearly 80,000 pilots by 2032, as per a report by Oliver Wyman.
The report said the supply of pilots is being affected by a wave of early retirements that occurred during the pandemic, a mandatory age of retirement of 65, compounded by an older workforce, a “shrinking pool of potential pilots from the military, and a tough value proposition for perspective [sic] candidates outside the military.”

Over 300 COVID-19 Papers Withdrawn for Not Meeting Standards of Scientific Soundness
May 26 2023
A scientist uses a microscope to look at cells containing [something, maybe] at the Stabilitech laboratory in Burgess Hill south east England on May 15, 2020.
Research journals have withdrawn well over 300 articles on COVID-19 due to compromised ethical standards and concerns about the publications’ scientific validity.
Retraction Watch has provided a running list of withdrawn papers on COVID-19 ranging from “Acute kidney injury associated with COVID-19” to “Can Your AI Differentiate Cats from COVID-19?”
A total of 330 research papers have currently been retracted.
During the pandemic, researchers have compromised on ethical standards and tried to either get more publications approved or to take shortcuts around ethics, senior researcher Gunnveig Grødeland at the Institute of Immunology at the University of Oslo says, after going through the list of articles that have been withdrawn, and the reasons for some of them.

Since most nurses are jabbed, I have a feeling those off duty nurses may be mostly unjabbed. Or just lucky not to be damaged and stopped at 2 jabs. I wonder how many hospitals will close this year, due to nurse and doctor shortages. I will celebrate each hospital closure, as I heard hospitals are the #1 killers of people. We have been living in the 'upside down', for 50+ years.
The airline industry is dying and will soon not be able to function at all. And we all the reason why....
