The lockdowns, mask mandates etc were used to "flatten the curve". So our hospitals could ramp up for the uptick that was coming. And they did not do that. Then, either hospitals are liable for an increase in preventable deaths - or, they knew it was bullshit and decided to cut costs. [/quote] Personally I would like to see every hospital administrator in the United States and Britain go to jail. Their excuse will be " but but the government doesn't fund us up enough to have safe staffing levels"....which is true but they dont exactly cut their own jobs and costs to compensate and maintain patient safety.

Largest hospital in northern- area ,PA. NY metropolitan area.My unit is dead. The emergency room is practically empty. We are short of staff and supplies, but that was done intentionally by administration.
A few weeks ago I was hearing stories about a second wave and know a few people who allegedly died of Covid related clots. But clots can occur in any sick patient, and to be honest, the Covid peeps I am seeing in medsurg look like they have colds on top of the usual chronic illnesses like heart and kidney failure.
Just an FYI. If there was a true pandemic, we would be slammed. Fingers crossed it stays this way.
