I too feel a sense of pride at the response of my colleagues and yes my Health Care System in dealing with Covid. Mistakes: yes: successes absolutely. Lessons learned: sure hope so.
Covid created a generation of doctors that saw a lot of Covid and not much else in the disease process. I hope they were resilient and seek the information they don’t know.
Agree that trust-rebuilding is key. Mustn't that include being specific about the lies she (and the test of us) were told? And those she herself unwittingly transmitted. Didn't it turn out that treating Covid-ARDs w/ pressure support was deadly. Didn't those patients need high concentrations of O2, instead, not a vent? If so, was 't puzzling about vent-rationing desultory, albeit forgivable error?
