You obviously have never been in a NYC hospital. Hallways are the norm in the ED always. That just translated to beds in the hallways on the floors. There were no shortages though. No one was sleeping on the floor. or in the garage. What are you t alking about? Truly amazing the pretzels you need to bake. You cant see that there was a plan in place that utterly failed but didnt result in the chaos that was predicted? Or the intellectual dishonesty that you are being accused of elsewhere is just showing up here too?
Coming from someone who said he would never engage me again after resorting to calling me a POS I will take my intellectual honesty anytime.

Why bother engaging?

Hold on to that title because at least I called you that and have no qualms about it. Glad other are calling you out on more and more BS that you spout here. Crawl back into the hole you like to disappear into again. Its so much better here without you.  Troll

There was never a shortage of beds in any hospital. No patients that I heard of was turned away from a hospital. Hospitals barely went on diversion. Hospitals go on diversion way more often in non-pandemic times than I have heard them going on diversion in the past weeks.
pandemic protocol diversion process is not the same, and even on redirection ambulances can still come and that causes a shortage.

Last week some projections were under 60k for amount of deaths. That no longer looks to be the case.

Do you understand the high projections were based on doing nothing and just letting it run its course? Only a lunatic would do that.

I personally know 2 people who were turned away from hospitals. One was turned away from 2, and died before he got into a third

Really now ? why don't you try to find those patients? ???
We had the USNS Comfort and Javits center sitting empty?
Are you joking? Have you seen hospitals? I saw one in NY (Maimonides), and it sure wasn’t pretty. Are you out of your mind? Javitz and Comfort showed up a week later

Which mainstream news sources said 2.2 million were projected dead with social distancing? I heard Trump say 100K-240K, and we got much tougher about distancing after that. We’re already at over 60K so yeah

Really now? Tell that to all the patients lined up in hospital hallways
that's only in the emergency room where they have hallway beds, on the floors they don't have that especially not COVID-19 PT's.

We keep ramping up our testing but the fatality rate keeps rising. What's with these numbers?
