This over-focus on 'the hospitals.' At what point do the hospitals--these bloated, multimillion dollar corporations with over-paid administrators---bear responsibility for making sure they can handle a pandemic?
If the national crisis involved a WAR, you can bet the weapon industry would produce enough of whatever was needed. There would be no shortage of bombs. Not a chance. Weird we constantly have shortage of beds.
Exactly.
As a side note, they've known about the nursing shortage - that was forecast to get even worse - for years.

We do have weapon to handle the pandemic - it's called vaccination.
Hover over the map of Manhattan and go to Chelsea/No Mad/West Chelsea, Hells Kitchen (10036). It says "100% fully vaccinated." You'll also see that many other neighborhoods have very high rates.
Yeah, hover over that. Slowly. Look at the numbers (all of them). Notice something strange?
Anti-vaxxers or vaccine-hesitant don't want vaccines. They want some other solution. Exactly what that solution is, I don't know. Perhaps they want everyone to either pretend the virus doesn't exist or else is no big deal.
If your vaccination works, why are you so frightened? Oh wait.
It's people like you that have hardened my resolve.
I am not frightened.
My primary concern is the hospitals filling up with the unvaccinated.
