Many small hospitals are definitely financially hurting themselves by that, yes, I agree that small non-big city hospitals won’t have that issue.

No clue what the situation is at the hospitals you looked at, but most places prohibit/severely limit all non patients to visit.

Oh I see.

Praise be! No need to worry! Corona heals! It keeps ordinary EMT traffic from occurring.

I guess all the infectious disease doctors throughout the entire world created some grand conspiracy to shut down the world economy... all so Trump wouldn't be reelected and you'd lose your job at Piccadilly. Am I right?

I mean, I get what you are trying to say but why would all of the parking lots be full?

A guy called in to local radio today and said his cousin needed a heart procedure after a bad angiogram — they sent him home. He went home on Thursday and died from a heart attack on Sunday. They were told his heart procedure (didn’t specify but bypass?) could wait.

Because a lot people who go to hospitals or clinics have health issues and there are a lot of older people so they are closed because it is a hot spot for the coronavirus to spread.. Kind of like nursing homes.

In my area, the hospital group expanded so quickly that they are now up to their eyeballs in debt with no revenue.
