just had a Doctor friend tell me his thoughts.. he is a true freind been at his home many times. i asked him his thoughts on this virus.. and so he answered.. Warning not good news!!!
As things are going? Yes absolutely. It's going to be horrible with many many people dying. The whole country needs to be on lockdown, [like NY, CA, and several other states] and it just isn't happening. We are dreadfully short of ventilators, and personnel to run them. Too many people aren't taking it seriously enough, in part because they trust what's coming from Trump rather than from doctors who are experts. The federal government was way too slow to respond to the crisis, and still hasn't done enough to produce ppe, vents, and tests. IMO, it's going to be a major catastrophe. I feel like we're standing on the shore on a moonless night, with a tsunami coming at us, but we don't know how big it us or when it's going to hit. Stay safe, wash your hands, and stay home as much as you can. Other than taking a walk around the block, I haven't gone anywhere in a week. No stores, no visits, no nothing. That's what we all need to be doing.
