So the big problem for NYC is that the CV hit at the same time they’re being stretched by flu cases. Had it waited a few months, NYC would’ve been able to deal with it. At least, that’s how I read it.
Another thing I wonder is how many people with a cold or mild flu who normally wouldn’t have sought medical attention are running to clinics and ERs thinking they have CV.
Unfortunately that is not true. The tests will have at least 1% false positives. If the prevalence is, for example 1 in 100,000, then the tests will show 1001 positives but only 1 will be a true positive. We will then have a fake pandemic.
The local news media ABC,CBS,NBC have a lock on the hysteria that fuels these people living in a sanctuary city. Not having a leader who is prepared and able to instruct and direct and give much needed good information is another.
But the pandemic is Trump’s fault because the CDC didn’t have enough tests available?
....and 25 million surgical gowns, coveralls, gloves and face masks”
Certainly they don’t need THAT many at this point, do they?! What about the other states with high volume of patients and will be running short?
