I understand.

I agree with your thoughts on it here.

Unless a real USAian has eyes in the hospitals, me, my family and many other USAians are having _none_ of these lies.

A grand delusion... until proven otherwise. Wake up.

I think the Mercy was here also, and wasn’t utilized.

We evidently have a greater need now. I think it will be
used.

Cuomo shot his mouth off about it, saying they didn’t need
it and it was dumb of Trump to send it, or some such.

Just an idiotic thing to say, when someone is trying to help
your populace.

“ED departments are flooded with illegals”

I took my son to the ER after he got in a car accident, and hit his head.

They had employees going around to almost ALL the patients, telling them in Spanish, how to get their visit paid for by the State of CA (I speak a little Spanish). When they came to us, they just said “Insurance card, please”.

It will probably be brought back.

The thing is all outfitted, and has a certain amount of staff.

Why not utilize it?

I don’t know why it spread so rapidly at this time, but I’m
thinking it had to do with the cooler weather.

Last time just as it was peaking, the weather was moving into
spring and summer.

I’m still not convinced that someone isn’t seeding the populace
with infection.

We’ll see. Right now they are turning folks away at some
emergency rooms. It doesn’t look good.

Hopefully some warmer weather will come along and put the
brakes on this.

Predictions are, that family gatherings may fuel this current
peak on for a while.

I don’t think they know what they’re talking about more than
just guessing, but we’ll see.

It is RIDICULOUS that they didn’t already have the ship in place when the cases originally started to spike nor did they have a field hospital set up. Nothing like waiting until the barn is completely on fire to start trying to lead the horses out.

I’ll grant you it doesn’t look good. At this point it is
ridiculous they haven’t called for it sooner.

Looking back they thought we probably wouldn’t see a larger
outbreak now than last March/April, but that didn’t work
out.

I’m sure they were a little gun-shy getting the ship last
time and not using it at all.

That just outright made me snort with involuntary laughter...

At least they could be less obvious about it...

COVID, or Influenza counted as such? Supposedly Flu has been eradicated this season by the same measures which have not stopped the China scourge. Masks are praised in one breath, damned in the next. Hospital’s have incentives to name it COVID. Masks stop one virus and not another hitching a ride in droplets?

You’re contemplating the things most folks are. On the surface
it doesn’t look good, as far as building trust that we’re
not be misled.

I’m not 100% on either side right now. It’s a quagmire of
information leading in different directions, and conclusions.

“L.A. County Supervisor Janice Hahn has written to Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) to ask that he request the return of the hospital ship U.S.N.S. Mercy to provide additional hospital bed capacity as the area struggles with an ongoing coronavirus surge.”

The Nazi bitch is part of the covid con. Newsom paid her off months ago.

It took me a long time to stop calling it an ER and begin calling an ED...:)

People want you to use uniform verbiage for these types of things, and I had to break the habit!

It is the smart virus. It knows if you are sitting down or standing up in a restaurant...you are safe if you are sitting down, but standing up is deadly.

I admit to finding the ridiculousness of this humorous as it is intended to be, but to many people, including some newly registered people now crawling around on FR, they don't see the stupidity at all and go along with the sheep-like compliance.
