That’s all very nice and even true, except our hospitals are experiencing a heavy flu season so they are busy now. When globally recognized epidemiologists say this virus is not being taken seriously enough, folks should listen.
South Korea took it very seriously with immediate widespread testing. Even drive through testing. As a result, their health care systems are able to manage some sort of pace. This would be a different story if they had not acted immediately.
This sign about an election year at a doctors office is shameful I think. Show this sign to the Nursing Home in Washington state where the paramedics were called eight or nine times in one night to rush residents to the hospital. What about them? Sure most of us might just get a cold but what about the people with Type II diabetes, asthma, COPD on and on? I bet they aren’t rolling their eyes right now.
And I tell you who else isn’t rolling their eyes and that is the doctors and nurses who are sweating their way through flu season right now. Strokes and heart attacks will still be happening through this too. How will they be served when a growing number of nurses are being home quarantined due to their testing positive?
The RO for this is not 2, it is more like 4. Healthy people, strong people should not be worried for themselves, but for their mothers fathers and the rest of the world who are not as fortunate. Im just going to stop here.
