Its pretty bad in the ghetto hospitals but alot of people are being sent home only to die a day or two later in their house. FDNY pulling 5-10 a shift out in some spots. Suburban hospitals are seeing way above normal deaths but its not apocalyptic with bodies laying around all over the place. Its real, its pretty bad, but they are managing. Its actually very quiet aside from that. When u go by a hospital you see all the tents and temp structures set up and way more EMS than usual but except for on those hospital wards, it certainly doesn't feel like a warzone. You are going to find when this is all over that aside from the very elderly of whom ive known a few (85+, friends grandparents etc,) this was a disaster for low income neighborhoods where people just did not listen early on and tend to have poorer baseline health.

It is, just look at leaked vids on /pol/. And it only is that way because Cuomo and DeBlasio are fucking retards that didn't take it seriously even back on March 8th. This virus isn't that bad in a suburban / or rural settings, but Wuhan proved you HAVE to take bigger precautions with densely populated urban centers. And NY did not take those precautions.
Thought NY was basically a war zone in terms of people needing medical treatment. Heard described as 9/11 every day.
What is really going on?
