If we had done nothing, everyone and everything would simply be overwhelmed to the point of fricking chaos right now.
2 months ago, nothing meant going about our lives without changing a thing.
5 weeks ago, nothing meant simply reminding people to Stay home when sick and wash their hands more.
3 weeks ago, nothing was simply limiting large crowds by having sporting events without fans.
2 weeks ago, nothing was a 15 day shutdown.

We crossed the threshold of this being about lives saved and more about political points and pearl clutchers virtue signaling a long, long time ago.

The people being put in the ICU today didn't catch it today. Someone getting it today will show symptoms in 2-14 days. The average is something like 5.2 days. And the symptoms don't start with the immediate need for ICU and/or vent. It's a slow progression. So yes... someone catching it today could literally be needing the vent at the peak in 2-3 weeks.

Jesus. There were people calling it “stressed” before any of this started. That’s not true either. Stressed means to the point where it’s ready to collapse. That’s not happening.

How the hell does this math check out in your head?

Why is the VA transferring to MS when there are ICUs in Louisiana?
Do they have to transfer within the VA system?

The more people stay at home, the slower everything spreads. You got that point correct. But to no one's surprise, you are once again missing the point. The slower this thing spreads, the better the chance of survival everyone will have. I'd rather my parents get this in 8-10 weeks than get it today. We can assume medical supplies, personnel, beds, and medicine won't be as stressed as they will be in 2-3 weeks at the peak. Also, every day that passes, doctors are learning more about the virus and treatments. If we had done nothing, everyone and everything would simply be overwhelmed to the point of fricking chaos right now. So yeah... everyone should stay home... slow things down... and maybe those 'old people' will have a better chance of seeing their loved ones again.
damn.. can you say owned

Or just an understanding of what a stressed system actually is.

We are forever in a state of the “peak” being two weeks away according to these clowns.

i'm starting to think you're no different than that other clown and your entire view of this international event comes from you being upset you can't go to the gym. at least he didn't pretend to get sick for attention

For the VA, that may be the case.
I know a lot of hospitals are preemptively moving patients around to make room at specific facilities. At least here, they are talking about having specific hospitals designated for COVID patients and then hospitals for everything else, at least in some of the bigger metro areas.

I have a gym in my house so nope.

No idea. They may be transferring non-covid pts to make room for covid positives.

He was in the nothingburger camp from the beginning and can't take being wrong so he's dug in. Most of those in that camp have juat stopped posting but a few are keeping up the good fight.
