My sarcasm and point didn’t land apparently. We’ve been told socialized medicine is the beat health care in the world, yet the only systems failing are socialized healthcare. And two of the “best rated systems” in the world.

Italian and Spanish Heath care such. Add aging populations and you see why they were hard hit.
The US is better equipped than both of those countries.

North MS Health Services based in Tupelo has 7 hospitals covering 24 Northeast MS Counties.

I am close to someone that works at a Bham area hospital. Their census is very low now.
Tenet Healthcare, which owns 4 Alabama hospitals, announced that they couldn't pay into their employees 401K now. Layoffs are happening at almost every hospital. Hospitals are losing money, hand over fist.

Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation's (IHME) model, LINK has moved up Louisiana's peak from April 10 to April 9 and look like the peak as dipped a bit which is great to see. If this model holds true the peak shortage of beds is only 259 for the state. I'm not in the field, but I'd imagine that's somewhat manageable b/t now and then. IF Louisiana peaks on or around April 9, that's pretty good news. Maybe things can return to normal towards the end of the month here. At that point, we can all just bitch and argue over what effect the shutdowns had.

I’m just gonna say
NYC hospitals are packed
But it’s not “carnage on the streets”
Everything isn’t “fine” but it’s not the zombie apocalypse here

And I would wager, they are losing TONS of money right now. I know of no surgical center open for elective surgery. All sleep labs are closed. Imaging for emergency and inpatient only. What happens when the hospitals can't pay their bills?

Apparently, there are hospitals classifying everyone that comes in as potential COVID patients because they are able to secure federal funds that way. There are people that got suspicious of it and started documenting one particular hospital daily. When word got out that hospital announced they all of a sudden had a drop in CV patients but the ones that were coming in were "sicker than before"

I know some nurses that left Alabama to take temp jobs in NYC. They are making lots of money. That being said, the company that hired them, also provides their housing. They rented an apartment for them thru Airbnb. When their Asian neighbor saw them in scrubs, he pitched a fit. He didn't want them possibly bringing the virus back to where he lives. The company was forced to move them due to that person's complaint. They were told to expect the same thing at the next place they move into.
BTW......the complaining neighbor didn't speak English. They said, most where they put them, don't either.

see my previous post. Hospitals are receiving federal funds for COVID treatments. I doubt the Government lets any hospital "fail" because of this.
