> In fact, outside the HN bubble people in some states already did that months ago. The issue, and this remains true today, is that hospital space is filling up fast (and did fill up in those states months ago). A discussion must take place about balancing our individual social needs with the needs of our public health system. There was a train-derailment in Montana in 2021, and COVID19 filled up their hospitals so much that the injured needed to be driven 2+ hours away to look for hospital space / treatment. Is that the kind of community you want to be a part of? Where your nearby doctors and nurses are not accepting any of the injured train passengers due to the overwhelming COVID19 case numbers? ----------- We definitely need to do our part as individuals to minimize the damage we cause to our hospital systems. ------ There's something to be said that "Yes, this tradeoff is worthwhile but only for the end-of-year parties". Vs overwhelming your hospital space just to "own the libs" when no major parties / social events are even happening in the middle of August. |
