Hospitals are already filled with Covid patients. There’s almost 70,000 people who are hospitalized with the virus. Elective surgeries are being postponed again. People don’t understand the seriousness of the virus and it continues to spread uncontrolled straining our medical infrastructure.

Yes, and most of them shouldn't even be at the hospital. That's the point I'm trying to make. By making everyone hysterical they run to hospitals like flock, hindering the ability to nurse other patients with serious problems. Just stay home if you have covid, in the majority of cases hospitals can't help you either way.

Most of the people in the hospital have been there for days or weeks. There is a small admissions of figuring out who needs to stay in the hospital vs just send home, but that is comparatively easy, just run a few tests and you will know. The real problem is those who need special care in a hospital bed. So long as there is a bed with staff to treat 80% will walk out after a few weeks. But as soon as there are not enough staff 100% will die in a few days.
