And no one said you didn't. But it's not up to you. Which is why I don't blame the hospitals for playing fast and loose with the Covid codes. That extra 20% is no joke to hospitals who are hemorrhaging funds due to stupid fricking politicians and people scared shitless due to the constant doomcasting from the media.
But then the shutdowns would happen longer. which prolongs the hemorrhaging of money. Hospitals want things back to normal ASAP, so padding the COVID numbers would be counter intuitive. Think just a little bit before posting

If you think JBE would have opened things up had the deaths been less by even 20%, I’ve got some ocean front property in Oklahoma for you.
ETA: not to mention that one of the main stipulations on opening is based on cases. And the other on hospitalizations. Deaths isn’t a factor.

“Hey, let’s lie about codes so we can make 13k extra, while prolonging us losing 50 million a month. Brilliant!”

Hospitals have zero control over things getting back to normal.
We've already flattend the curve. Hospitals are well below capacity, and have been saying so for a while now.
Guess what? We're still on lockdown, and people are still scared shitless to go anywhere near a hospital.
Hospitals could be running two for one surgery specials and it won't fricking matter because they are not the power brokers in this whole shite show.
