The CDC Doctors Screwed Up Bigly! USNS Comfort in NY Harbor Sits Idle with 3 Patients -- USNS Mercy in LA has Only 15 Patients

But after three days in the harbor only three patients have been transferred to the hospital ship.

The ship has 1,000 beds.

Another Navy hospital ship, the U.S. Naval Ship Mercy, docked in Los Angeles, has had a total of 15 patients, officials said

You can thank the CDC officials and doctors for pushing fake models on the American public and Trump administration!

The CDC used the IMHE model to base their numbers on. The model was way off in its predictions.

Advertisement - story continues below The IMHE study predicted over 121,000 Americans would be hospitalized by Wednesday over the Coronavirus. The actual number was 31,142.

In New York, the IMHE model predicted that as of yesterday, 50,962 people would have been hospitalized due to the Coronavirus. The actual number was 18,368.

Maybe he got heat from Upstate for sending those 14 patients up there while JC remains empty

And all 14 were Chinese who don't speak a word of English - that's our country thanks to open borders.

Everyone involved was aware from the start that the ship was NEVER going to accept infectious disease patients.

Something else is going on. Very likely money related.

Follow the money.

The ships are there, fully equipped, and ready to be used FOR NON COVID PATIENTS. Local authorities have obviously completely failed to transfer said patients to the ships.

My wife, who spent decades of her life as a RN holds 99.9999% of hospital administrators in the same regard as she does snakes.

She feels that these hospitals are so short of patients, they are sending only those patients with no way to pay for their hospitalization to the Navy Hospital Ships.

They’re sending the low margin patients and keeping the cash cows.

If NYC’s pols and bureaucrats are dissing the shup while keeping patients back in order to maximize profits for NYC’s hospitals...

I won’t print the rest of what I’m thinking.

Q: If a non-WuFlu patient gets transfered from an NYC hospital to the ship, the NYC hospital loses money, right?

No treatment, no money.

Hmmmmm.....

Bingo, the bean counting and heartless Hospital CFO’s in NY City had this figured out before that Navy ship left Norfolk to come to NYC!

Rush has no science and doesn’t really comprehend the concept of scientific modeling. Rather, he compares the present to what he has complained about for years and years, climate modeling.

There is not a valid comparison, but that did not stop him from going off on this erroneous tangent.

He got ie wrong because of his superficial thinking. Further, in his rambling he was on and off the subject and tangential and muddled. It was his worst performance ever

...dissing the ship...

Not to mention, some patients may get better care on board the ship than can be gotten at the hospitals right now.

If NYC is blocking the transfer of patients for profit, the people responsible ought to be keelhauled.

“They’re sending the low margin patients and keeping the cash cows.”

Of course most of NY city’s elites have fled NYC and flown elsewhere in private planes or were driven in limos to a “Safer Place”!

That leaves the medicare and plain joe and jane patients,, many of which have no insurance now. Or their insurance coverage is lapsing. That makes them perfect patients for our Navy ships.

Are we up to 10,000 dead? Some were predicting by today we would have that many dead from the invisible killer in our midst.

If the numbers do increase, we will never hear about it from the same sources so eager to run this story.

Didn't hear him.

I do know that the Imperial College original model predicting the Zombie Apocalypse has been walked back but aside from that...

Laura Ingraham had two doctors on last night. One of them stated that the ship is not yet used because the hospitals in New York have not reached capacity. Ship not needed, yet.


Lets hope that the hospital and ship capacities are never reached.

We can then see very clearly that Cuomo, Schumer, et al were playing the “ create a crisis” to maximize blame, and then back off with a “ thank god” we didn’t need it.

The cake and eat it strategy deployed by the MSM and Pols on many topics...
