This is a private Hospital in Manhattan. (Seems focuses on elective surgery) It's not in Queens or the Bronx or Brooklyn. It's like saying the Outbreak in Waco can't be real because the hospitals in West aren't full.
NY has said private hospitals will need to start taking patients.
Doesn't it seem odd that as part of the response this already has not occurred? Seems like with all the talk of running out of supplies and beds, this would have been done. When people are talking about running out of hospital beds, are they just talking about public hospitals?
5 stars for above response post. First sentence spot on. Second sentence spot on. Plan of action way behind the apex or curve. It's called disaster planning. Not rocket science. No plan is perfect but how about a plan. Now politicians scrambling for excuses. Take Calif., 95K expired masks sat in storage. Who nixed the reorder process? But then expired masks are better than no masks. Gavin Newsom's daily news hour just around the corner. Also, hear politicians giving platitudes about health care workers, and then I remind myself who put them in their current position? Political planning at its finest. I was military and military gets hazardous duty pay. How about hazardous duty pay for all those who provided assistance to virus patients. How does it go? Money talks BS walks. Just ask a health care worker. Just wait, next power outage the politicians will crucify the Utility CEOs. Shoe is now on the other foot. All Politicians (local, state, federal) need to answer the who, what, why, where, when questions. Good luck on that one.
