What's the status with hospitals? That was the question. Are they closing? How many have already closed? Are they at full capacity? Are they projected to get to full capacity? Are people with nonessential surgeries still being pushed out? Who else, if any, is also still being pushed out? Etc. You answered a question that wasn't being asked.
- JamisonM 6y agoThe status with the hospitals is that the ICU's are filling up or full. Nonessential surgeries were brought back in after the 1st wave didn't develop in the size and strength expected and are now getting pushed back or cancelled because this wave is overwhelming the system. But you can just read the news and see that this is what is happening so I don't understand why you are asking it in the first place. (The risk of permanent hospital closures & bankruptcies in the USA was about losing revenue from certain type of procedures because of COVID risks, but that's a separate issue that has little to do with this.) So again, why do you need to quibble over rounding errors in cause of death paperwork when the hospitals are filling up or full? Why? What's the point?
