I worked in hospitals for years. Trust me, their ICU beds were gone on day 2.

Do you think any of those 10,000 beds were filled? Or did they move everyone out to make room for these guys?

As Joe Biden says, “Come on man....think”

This stuff is happening while the rest of the hospitals business goes on. You guys think this is happening in a vacuum. Babies are born. Heart stents are put in. Kidneys are transplanted. Stuff cannot wait.

Do you think they have EXTRA rooms for that stuff?

How do you see US hospitals coping with an Italy-style mortality rate, adjusted for the US population? If the president fed a bunch of money into the system, could he get makeshift ICU’s up and going before we have to resort to the kinds of triage to which the Italians have been forced, where hospitals are basically hospices for patients falling outside certain parameters?
