Since the pandemic began, 26 of the hospital's COVID-19 patients have died. As of Friday, 106 of the 137 COVID-19 patients [77%] at Aspirus' 17 hospitals in Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula were not fully vaccinated, including at least 39 of the 43 [91%] in intensive care.
But Faude said many people in the area distrust health care workers. Some demand that their loved ones be treated with ivermectin, an anti-parasite livestock pill that doctors say is not suitable for humans with COVID-19, she said. Skepticism of vaccination seems entrenched, she said.
“They feel like it’s this big hoax that the government is trying to push on people, and so they don’t trust where the vaccine’s coming from or the intentions behind it,” Faude said. [emphasis added]
