Great attitude.
Tomorrow (friend) has been asked to be part of a meeting for (hospital) being Chief or Surgery to ultimately decide which surgeries are emergent and which are more elective and the hospital will cease what isn’t emergent with the uprising in this pandemic. This is unprecedented in his or my lifetime. While doing this to keep our community safe it doesn’t come with cost. A total reduction in staff, their incomes and anesthesia & surgery staff in huge reductions and around a 40% reduction in income in most surgeons with families.
Very scary
In other words this local hospital is cutting costs right now and putting off surgeries in order to prepare for what they think will be a huge influx of pandemic patients in the very near future.
Great attitude.

that was Lookners opinion
but he has been reporting on this since late Jan when there were 44 cases in Wuhan
Italy, Spain, and other countries now on lockdown all followed the same pattern
Social distancing doesn’t work if people don’t follow it
Yeah, I had to quit following him on twitter yesterday.
