    There's nothing to prepare for. All they're doing is doubling/tripling down on the false information because they showed their incompetence and willingness to dispose of patients and take money for it...Government doctors/nurses/hospitals....and we all see it. They're trying to remain relevant. I don't think them patting themselves on the back, calling themselves heroes and doing tick tock videos of their dance routines is gonna cut it this time.

    I suspect that it is happening in some urban Democrat run areas just like the first time around. The same places that screwed up like New York for example. And now we will witness another round of begging for relief!

    I can't say about every city everywhere, but....

    Go ahead, create thousands of new beds to prepare for any onslaught of patients. Doesn't matter as you can't find enough nurses and respiratory techs to staff them.

    I work at a large hospital. We close units because of lack of staff.

    Hospitals should have been preparing for the worst case scenario. So why didn't they? What have they been doing this entire time?

    Absolutely nothing, that's what you're ignorantly convinced of.

    Maybe you should do some first-hand research and find out.

    Right... like that's going to happen.
