I worked in an ER in the last big flu epidemic in 2007. I was swamped with people who came in after they had RECOVERED to tell me how sick they had been but now they felt fine. Idiocracy is here.
I’m actually surprised by that, because with the copay costs rising most people I know will do ANYTHING to avoid going to an ER - or even a doctor.
I’ve canceled doctor appointments because the wait was so long I’d recovered (without the prescriptions I sought) before the appointment.
