I am calling official B.S. on this hoax of a "pandemic." We have been told by the "scientists" that hospitals would be overrun, the dead would be piling up, etc. Please post "on the ground" reports from your city/state. Are your hospitals overrun? Are healthy people dying? Any signs that a Bubonic Plague is among us?

How about you start? Please state your location. I am in Irvine, CA, and now personally know one presumptive case (test results aren’t in yet).

I live in Maryland. No sign of any hospitals overrun with patients. In fact, I know a few physicians’ assistants who have been furloughed from 24 Urgent Care centers because nobody coming in. We have 3 dead in Maryland, all older with serious underlying conditions. Yet our Governor just shut down non-essential businesses today...

I agree.
I wish they would post side-by-side stats with this year’s normal flu statistics.
I bet we’d see anywhere in the 15-20 million infected, with maybe 100,00 dead.
Perspective is needed.

No sign of anything out of the ordinary here in Eastern Washington aside from the stupid things the government is doing.

“We have been told by the “scientists” that hospitals would be overrun, “

If we did nothing.

It must be a pandemic. There’s still no TP in the grocery stores.

Hope it is a hoax. Sorry in more ways than one, it isn’t.

Drove by our emergency room near Atlanta, to see for myself, and nothing seemed to be going on. Didn’t see anyone going in or out for several minutes. Looked more empty than I have seen in the past. Like people are avoiding going for other things. I smell a rat in all this.

Michigan has 1328 cases today, up about from 549 from Friday. We have had 15 deaths.

IF we tracked the flu it would probably be worse.

I'm in Southern California. I'm sure I'll get flamed for this, but this whole thing is reminding me of our 24/7 "STORMWATCH" coverage every time we get sprinkles. As for your question, we have had very few cases in my neck of the woods.

And yes, we are all pretty much on lockdown.

Not aware of any hospitals overrun, no dead piling up, etc.

Two of my coworkers in Fort Saskatchewan are being tested for it.

I think it is also overblown. They could have required those vulnerable to be quarantined and allowing them to the risk if they chose not to be.

Here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan there is 1 case in Chippewa County (Sault Sainte Marie). The hospitals are not full. No surgeries being done unless they are an emergency. No cases in the county I live in. Grocery stores had a run today because the stay in place order has been ordered for 1200 March 24. It is nuts out there. No sick, ill, dying in this county from this virus not even a case in the county the nearest case is 6 hours east of here, within the state boundaries. Green Bay has cases there but it is 4 and half hours away.

The only thing I saw that was overrun here in MA was the local Walmart.

Right after rino Baker announced a state shutdown.

Do ANY of you MORONS know what the word "pandemic" means?

IT'S WHAT A SERIOUS WORLD WIDE DISEASE IS CALLED AND ERGO, THIS IS A PANDEMIC !

Are hospitals in Italy, China, and other nations "over run with infected and dying people? YES!

Are there such problems on Washington and N.Y. states this bad? YES!

Did you REALLY need to add to the ridiculous number of stupid vanities now eating up FR? No, you did not!

Live in Cincinnati, OH and Naples, FL. Supposedly 442 cases in the state of Ohio so far. 6 deaths in Ohio - all but one death they announced pre existing health problems.

All my doctor friends are pissed because all elective procedures have been halted and they have nothing to do.

Hospitals running with fewer patients because everybody who is not super sick got cleared out in preparation for the “onslaught”.

Just got back from a vacation to Williamsburg, VA today. Virginia quiet. Hospitals looked quiet. Nothing untoward about bed space on the news!

Panic is out of control here. This was just after someone sneezed in the theater.

Friend’s dad has Covid19 in NYC. He is very high risk. Family will not be able to see him before or after he passes. When they put him in the ambulance that was it.
