The thing is the doctors that are saying by next week they will be overwhelmed by cases and not enough beds, etc. This is from an area that only has 4 reported cases so far. It's the waiting for the other shoe to drop. Madness.

But today is the day the Hydroxychloroquine/Zpack combos start in earnest, right? So, outside of a 6 day lag, the discharge of patients should help relieve the new source of admitted patients. Also, Cuomo is doing his posturing speeches on the projected numbers based on the 'non'quarantined period prior to last week, and prior to the bigger compassionate use of the 2part medicine combo.

Yesterday's task force addressed the scary projections of numbers, and explained that these numbers all were based/growing on the unchecked anticipation of infection rates. Essentially, opportunism by the chicken littles.

Cuomo nothing to lose by overhyping this crisis and beating up the feds by assistance - but has all kinds of face to lose if he underplays this. So, overhype every day, it is.

yes, the elusive "next week." Been hearing about that for weeks now. Any minute people are going to be dying in the streets!
