and then we have Sweden, who seems to be doing none of the fear and panic, and didn't shut down, and they seem to be doing OK.
This bears mentioning as a lot of deranged extreme liberals in Hollywood keep crying testing, testing, all of us need to be tested. So, unwittingly, going to a hospital for a Corona Virus test puts your life at grave risk. Hospitals are incubators of germs and viruses of the worst sort. Very sick people go to hospitals. More than a few doctors have said that unless, you have difficulty in breathing and high fever, stay the hell out of hospitals as your risk of infection is very high. There are not enough testing kits to test everyone that is why doctors ration it to the very sick people with serious symptoms of the Corona Virus. Asking to be tested just for the heck of it only burdens our doctors and nurses and puts them in grave risk also, in the process. This is the time for extreme liberals in Hollywood and media to end their hysterical, idiotic attacks on President Donald and the Corona Virus task force trying to stop this epidemic. Now, it not the time for your petty, political games. It helps no one and put frontline doctors and nurses lives at risk.
Sweden and South Korea have a single government and people who listen. U.S. has GOP and Dems arguing for brownie points and fucktards on the beaches claiming they aint skerred of Corona and then end up spreading it all over where they went back to. We are somewhat medically prepared for this, we are not socially or mentally capable of doing what is necessary. We could have a 4 to 6 week shut down. But we have 50 states acting on their own and we will now have a 3 month shut down.
I know for a few reasons. I am not saying this is all hospitals... but I think it would apply to at least a few here in San Diego. I know some doctors with no current income who wanted to play golf... they mentioned that half their hospital is shut down because people are either not allowed or choosing to put off non essential medical services right now. My in laws told me they have never seen an empty emergency room before and that the hospital seemed empty. (my mother law is not well right now, she has been in an out of the hospital multiple times the last 3 months.) My wife works in a busy unit but she mentioned someone was ticked because she got a ticket parking by parking close too the hospital. She thought they would relax the rules because the parking lot was wide open. I have been to that hospital .. parking is normally in an overflow situation. ----- You are right ... I just did a google search and it came back with all sorts of headlines talking about the need for more hospital beds in the near future. both things could be correct. We could have the need in the future... if there is a ramp.
Kim Prather, a leading atmospheric chemist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, wants to yell out her window at every surfer, runner, and biker she spots along the San Diego coast. “I wouldn't go in the water if you paid me $1 million right now,” she said. Has this atmospheric chemist experienced any backlash for making this absurb claim and stoking fear and hysteria. Let me, she also stokes fear and hysteria about global warming. These are the so-called scientists who are infallible.
