Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsEarl, can you please start a grief group forum for people who lost loved ones to Covid?
The weight of it all..the loss ( granted, that everyone goes through) + blame of trump + blame of hospitals and nursing homes + loved one dying alone + loved ones not with them + no proper funeral. It's just a whole lot to bare.
Maybe if we could talk to each other it could help ease the pain?

This is an excellent idea and perhaps some of HCWs who've experienced so much death to COVID

While there is the bereavement Group, perhaps a sub-group under that for Covid??

and the helplessness that comes--especially with the families, might likewise find some comfort.

I can see the logic of a sub-group in that a lot of Covid information/experiences are of great importance now.
As I remember...someone let me know if this is outdated, pls.....
All we had to do to start a group is ask Admin. and show that say...10?..or more others were interested in having it.
Pls.count me in for it.

So sorry there even is a need for this.
Edited to add that if support for the request is needed, consider this an additional request for such a group.
