There are thousands of things that may be difficult to address with this, but utility manpower can be moved around the country--this is fixable--

much, much easier to deal with than the clear and present danger of a health care system overload--with no way to move the patients without endangering them further.

I have to believe that either the Dept of Defense and/or DHS has done contingency planning for this kind of stuff.

At this point, speculating about utility cutoffs is irresponsible and really does qualify as fearmongering.
