Should have let it ride earlier on.
Now, they are getting full brunt all at once.
Sad.

Some guy posted a video of him going to ER's in LA the other day, and none of them were busy.

Christmas was 12 days ago. Does it take rona that long to manifest in your system?

It states that ambulance crews should conserve oxygen by only giving it to patients who have oxygen saturation levels below 90%.
Well that only makes sense.
You don't need to be put on oxygen if your saturation level is 90% or higher.

I wonder how many of those beds are being taken up by illegal aliens? Oh well, enjoy the sanctuary city you leftist assholes voted for.

good question.
I can’t think of a shot hole that deserves this more.

I don’t know or really care about the truth to this, but probably 90% of the patients in nursing homes should be “do not transfers”... and there is actually such a thing...

Not quite, 35 to 105.
You were looking for 116.66 to 350

Are they still using the hospital ship they were sent?
Oh, they sent it back home after a month and a half? They only used it for 30 patients? During an "unprecedented killer pandemic" that is overloading hospitals?
Weird.

This is really not anything new, for the last 20 years or so this is been the standard of care throughout prehospital medicine (except traumatic arrest).
You work on the patient until you get a pulse back then transport. Alternatively you work them for 20 or 30 minutes depending on the protocol and if they do not regain a pulse and they are not under the age of 18 then you call a physician at the hospital and the patient is left in the care of the corners office.
The science is solid and shows that starting and stopping CPR is more detrimental than staying on the scene and doing good high-quality CPR on the ground.
This is just ground breaking news because this method is not used in California and now they are implementing it due to the large number of patients that are already hospitalized in California.

That would be the right timing for needing to show up to the hospital.
~5 days to get the symptoms and about a week to progress to pneumonia for those who are unfortunate to not be able to kick the bug early.
