Initially yes.
An outbreak of this in a major metro area would have a leveling effect however.
How many ER docs are wearing full PPE to do an assessment of patients with suspected stomach virus? I suspect none. They’d be the first casualties, like the medical personnel in Nigeria.

Imho, the biggest problem we have is our federal government.

If you have seen the portable hospitals that the Army has, that sets up in a few hours, everything packed and ready to go , you would be impressed. I saw a portable operating room at a surgery conference. The CDC could have easily done that, sent volunteers down to Africa with state of the art medical portable facilities. They did not need to bring them here.
