That's a great idea too; however hospital parking lots, even if the hospital is at normal capacity, is usually pretty empty in the evenings because the majority of patients do not have their car at the hospital.
Sauce: I've got family members who work nights and the hospitals are always dead in the evenings when I've gone to visit them/bring them stuff and they had multiple floors full pre-pandemic.
Fair, but if you go now to MAJOR hospitals— the ones that are buzzing with activity 24/7, you’ll find lots that are COMPLETELY empty. Like you can park in the space closest to the ER room entrance.
What we need are actual frontline nurses/doctors to film their hospitals as being empty.
I live in a major city and I've been to the biggest hospital here around midnight a couple times and the parking lots are usually empty.
What I'm getting at is empty parking lots and empty waiting rooms in the dead of night is not going to sway anyone - especially those who work in healthcare.
What will sway people is the frontline nurses/doctors filming empty hospitals - especially during the day.
Edit: Or what we need to do is get employment numbers for hospitals to show just how many have been out of work at major hospitals. Or we need hospital financial statements/patient counts/etc. to show just how empty they are because everyone on .WIN knows they are empty. We just need a way to show and message that to the rest of the country just the same as the Floyd bodycam footage showed the world the media is full of shit.
