- nradov 5y agoWe didn't care about hospitals being overwhelmed by influenza in 2018. https://time.com/5107984/hospitals-handling-burden-flu-patients/ https://time.com/5107984/hospitals-handling-burden-flu-patie...
- standardUser 5y agoThere is hardly any threat of that at this point. At least not in areas with high vaccination rates.
- diogenescynic 5y agoI feel like that was always BS and just a scam to rationalize our poorly resourced yet highly paid hospitals. Wait times at ER were always bad, the pandemic just made it slightly more bad. The underlying problem was always there.
- lokar 5y agoWhat about the death rate for people who can't be vaccinated?
- Lascaille 5y agoNot everyone survives. That's life. You can't expect society to shut down to protect the tiny percentage of people who can't be vaccinated or are immunocompromised. That's never been an expectation of society before so why would it be one now?
- lokar 5y agoIt has been. The reason these people survive is because vaccines are required for everyone as a child (in the US). Without that they would catch mumps, measles, polio, etc. And wearing a mask inside public spaces is not shutting down society.
- Lascaille 5y ago>vaccines are required for everyone as a child (in the US) Do continue please
- tomp 5y agoThey’re free to lock down indefinitely, if they want. Also, the flu!
