It's a reasonable assumption, considering that 90% of the nurses in the US are female.
- ErikBjare 6y agoBut why make the assumption at all? 90% or not, in this case it was wrong.
- hh3k0 6y agoThat's true -- maybe they merely skimmed over the article. That's the kind of info I'd probably miss when just skimming over something, too.
- melling 6y agoIf you condition on having read the article, you would know it’s a male nurse: “ Matthew W., a nurse at two different local hospitals, said in a Facebook post on December 18 that he had received the Pfizer vaccine”
- blackrock 6y agoNurses make really good money in the United States. And it is always in demand. With the union rules and all the mandatory overtime, they can earn well over six figures. The salaries are easily comparable to some senior software engineering salaries. And they can reach that level a lot faster than some engineers can. They can also work at multiple hospitals, to further boost their income. Given all that, it’s reasonable to assume that some men will enter the profession also.
