Well we have broken the 1,000 death mark nationally.
We were at 100 deaths on March 17th.
Ten fold increase in approx. 8 days.
Hopefully the restrictions implemented on the country will show up over the next couple of weeks and we will not see the exponential increase. If we get to April 3 with less than 3,000 total deaths I'd think that what we are doing has been beneficial. The problem is that many more areas are going to be hitting the steepest part of the curve in the next couple of weeks.
I'm one of those very organized people and often refer to myself as a girl scout due to my preparedness in most situations that come along, even if unexpectedly. It's so ******* frustrating to be at the mercy of such incompetency, irresponsibility and sociopathy. In fact, I am over-the-top enraged as we all should be. Explain how anyone who lied or withheld information about the virus should not be tried at the Hague. And btw...what is going on with the ones who dumped their stocks? Have not heard much more about them the last few days and I hope that does not go unaddressed as just more privileged getting away with crimes.
Healthcare workers using trash bags because no gowns...
Healthcare workers are using trash bags because they are out of gowns.
Creative or dangerous?
The shortage of safety gear at one Manhattan hospital is so dire that desperate nurses have resorted to wearing trash bags — and some blame the situation for the coronavirus death of a beloved colleague.
A stunning photo shared on social media shows three nurses at Mount Sinai West posing in a hallway while clad in large, black plastic trash bags fashioned into makeshift protective garb.
One of them is even holding the open box of 20 Hefty “Strong” 33-gallon garbage bags they used to cloak themselves.
“NO MORE GOWNS IN THE WHOLE HOSPITAL,” the caption reads.
That is...I have no words for what kind of person would say such a horrible thing.
Sorry, dark humor. As far as what kind of person would say such a thing-Nancy Pelosi's daughter? TDSers that stated that if infected they'd go to a Trump rally? People that would carry the President's severed head?
BTW - The Universal DNR is based on age, prognosis etc. It's not technically "Universal".
