They may lose $40k-$50k in earnings this month.



And, it this because of the overwhelming demand that is preventing them from working, or the "potential for the overwhelming demand" that is doesn't yet exist but the OP says must drive our decisions?

I'll give you a simple analogy

You're going 70 on the interstate and not paying much attention to the road. I'm in the passenger's seat and notice a wreck and traffic stop up ahead.

The logic you're using with what you're saying right now is there is no reason to break yet because you haven't slammed into the back of a car.

All elective procedures were cancelled. All patients typically admitted for a one or two day observation were just sent home, and told to come back if their conditions worsen.

Hospital census were cut in half. They are now filling up with Corona patients. My girlfriend could not get a shift at either of her hospitals between last Thursday and yesterday. Yesterday she got double incentive pay, working with only corona patients, with no adequate protective gear.
