What has OSHA done this year?
They have closed 12,000 cases with nothing more than a letter.
No investigations.
No site visits.
NO ENFORCEMENT OF ANYTHING.
OSHA has done nothing.

Another useless government organization! So infuriating and sad at the same time.
OSHA is a bad joke anymore
A local hospital system sent out an email to employees saying that no staff had caught covid from a clinical exposure in 10 weeks 🤣 they’re ruling all the positive staff as community exposure 🙄 nope nobody caught it here
Probably pressure from the WH who isn’t making PPE a priority. Many government agencies have had budget cuts and been pressured to weaken their rules. Executive orders are the norm. If they could make hundreds of vents in a month, there’s no reason not to have PPE available.

That decision could hinge on whether the judge accepts the defence’s theory that Van Horlick experienced a dissociative state as a result of stress and isn’t guilty because he wasn’t in control of his actions.
