Salem Nurse On Leave Over Controversial COVID TikTok

(Undated)  --  A Salem nurse is on administrative leave after posting a video on TikTok making clear her disregard for COVID-19 precautions and restrictions.  Salem Health hospital officials identified the nurse as Ashley Grames.  Her TikTok account has been deleted but not before it started making the rounds on Friday.  In the video, Grames mocks her co-workers' reactions to her refusing to abide by health guidelines.  She says she doesn't wear a mask except for at work, still travels freely and allows her kids to have playdates.  The hospital where Grames works has been on the Oregon Health Authority's list of workplaces with the most employee-related coronavirus cases since May.
