It may not be the norm, but how unusual was it?
- slenk 5y agoEesh. I guess I am lucky where I live - even when the hospitals are at 95% capacity I got stitches real quick a month ago
- stjohnswarts 5y agoThey're generally talking about ICUs and the like. You didn't need ICU for stitches most likely.
- stjohnswarts 5y agoPlease point a time out where it was spread across the country in recent memory at our current scale. You can't. No one is saying some regional event won't do it (hurricane for example). However currently it's a much bigger issue particularly in states that are still saying covid is basically the flu while their hospitals are over full and they're begging traveling doctors and nurses to come and help out.
