As always, not one image of a crowded hospital, not one second of video of a crowded hospital. The story includes some stock images of people doing medical looking stuff; a guy in a gown giving the reporter, who looks like he's in a plague movie, a tour of empty rooms; and a few seconds of a guy coughing.
Many who see the video will remember seeing crowded hospitals. That's a mind trick - show hospitals, say they're crowded. "I saw them give a tour of the crowded hospital!" Yeah, but the tour showed only one patient. People will forget that, forget what they didn't see.
The World wide death rate in 2020 is lowest ever.
Somewhere, there are official bean counters monitoring hospital occupancy and staffing. They have to report to their governing boards and shareholders and the CDC because money. An indirect measure is the nursing labor market. You shouldn't be seeing pictures of real patients because of privacy issues (and photos can be fake anyway), but real numbers are out there.
Hogwash. The videos include single patients. If there was a crowd, they'd show a crowd.
Reminds me of a Penn & Teller Bullshit episode where this guy convinced a group of people to see something that wasn’t there by having a few plants in the group that insist that they saw a UFO and slowly but surely, the rest of the group (with a few holdouts) agree that they saw it too.
It's the same principle.
I went to the ER twice in July for etc...The longest I waited was 20 minutes, the shortest was about 10 minutes...probably less on both. And, this was including all of the Corona virus screening...
Pre Covid, I've never had such a fast response...

Houston isn't seeing much activity. Texas reports more but that's because El Paso and other border areas are treating Mexicans, too. Yeah we have cases, a Mexican sick in the hospital counts, but it sure muddies the waters don't it.
People ought to be able to track it in their areas, look for your med centers' or counties' published data..
