We're about to find out one way or the other in the US. Hospitals are full, ERs are full, ICUs are full and it is likely going to stay that way all fall/winter. This has two consequences: 1) There are no beds and/or staff for people coming in with heart attacks or from car crashes or other solvable issues. 2) Fatigue is building on hospital healthcare workers. They are being berated by family members of dying un-vaccinated persons. They are at a breaking point.I think we will see a complete meltdown of our hospital system. There is going to be a flood of healthcare quitting. I personally expect 20% to walk away over the next 6 months.
- hatware 5y agoHospitals, ERs, and ICUs are not full in Texas, Florida, or Colorado. They never were. All those field hospitals that were stood up in 2021 across the US have been torn down because they were not needed. I don't know about you, but it looks more to me like all we are seeing is the breakdown of crony-capitalism. It's not a coincidence that the vaccines are some of the most profitable medical products ever produced.
- the_doctah 5y agoThe "ICU beds full" keeps getting parroted everywhere but is patently false. The rest of your post is the same alarmist nonsense that has kept everyone in an unnecessary state of anxiety for the last 16 months.
