Sounds like the patients themselves are choosing to put off treatment because they're scared of infection. Seems like you're trying to make it sound like a poilicy was created that denied treatment to non-COVID patients.




Come on, man! You don't think the media and politicians haven't created a fearful environment?? Telling people to stay home, wear masks, bed space needed for victims, etc is telling you to stay away!! Especically for older folks who have been told they are at a much higher risk category, you don't think they are going to be scared to go out for doctor visits, testing, etc??

Another point I forgot to mention. Older people in care facilities that sustain some type on injury or illness are being told they will not be allowed back into those care facilities if they leave to go get treatment.
