Well, the empty/low hospital parking lot phenomenon is a result of cancelled procedures and restrictions on visitation.

I pass by one of the hospitals in the Florence Alabama area all the time. It usually has a packed parking lot, now it looks like a ghost town.

We will see, supposedly things are just getting started...
To many are expecting immediate issues.

On The Level
Pretty much the same here.
One woman, early 40's, been sick for weeks, tested positive a week or so ago. Another woman early 50's, had 1st chemo treatment for breast cancer, got sicker than she's ever been according to her, tested positive last week.
Two of my doctors cancelled my appointments for mid April and early June yesterday.

This too shall pass.
If those hospitals have cases, they are inside, in the ICU, most likely, not out in the parking lot! We were in the ER of our local little hospital last week, at the same time as at least one presumed case and possibly several of them. You couldn’t tell anything from outside in the parking lot. The only clue in the entrance was that the ‘greeter’ taking temperatures warned us that the hospital was a dangerous place to be right now. Even in the ER itself, things seemed pretty quiet except that the staff were tense. Until there are huge numbers of cases, you aren’t going to see lines out the door, or triage tents in the parking lot.

Most hospitals have gone to just one visitor per patient or no visitors at all. Elective procedures have been postponed. And add to that, there are a lot of people who test positive but stay home because they aren't sick enough to warrant a hospital stay.

My dad had a terrible accident about 10 days ago. Head on collision. He cracked open the windshield with his face. He's 80 years old. They did not take him to the hospital, nope, sent him home somehow. He could not even remember how he got home, still don't know. The next day I finally got him into another hospital over 2 hours drive away and he had a limited brain bleed.

The hospitals are half empty because they are not seeing people because I suppose they think it's best to leave the beds open for future WuFlu cases.

I know of at least 2 folks who have coronavirus. A young man of about 30 who is in ICU, been there for about a week now. Another is a senior gentleman who is still in his home with his wife, whom I assume has it now too.

How's your Dad, NCGirl? I hope he's doing well.

Edited to add: Oops, should have read further. Good news.

Are you sure about that?
stupidest UTube I've seen in a while - films some entrance that is obviously not being used and there's a "conspiracy" - try going around to the emergency entrance - MYSTERY SOLVED

The media is portraying it much, much differently. The way they present it, if one entrance is flooded with eager potential patients, you'd think they'd be heading to another entrance. Elmhurst in particular seems too quiet.

Covid-19 is real, but something is also not adding up. Those two conditions really can both be true simultaneously, though the full meaning of the latter condition is not yet known.

It's easy - no one wants to go anywhere near a hospital and catch it. Even if we do catch it many of us (myself including) prefer to take our chances at home using a multitude of natural antiviral etc.

Additionally it hasn't hit yet in most areas.

You are RIGHT ON. The only reason my hospital has available beds and staff is because of the cancellation of MOST elective surgeries. Our parking lot looks emptier, too. No visitors unless death is imminent, or a laboring mother may have one person.

You want to get sick? Go to a hospital! Smarter people than that youtuber are avoiding hospitals completely. Elmhurst hospital in Queens NY is not allowing visitors anyway. No elective surgeries or tests are being performed. People being told to stay away unless sent there by a doctor for treatment.

Its negligent! I would be researching the hell out of this one.
What she said.

No, SERIOUSLY!! This was at LEAST Malpractice, with a side of negligence and a soupcon of stupidity. Y'all SHOULD consider an attempt to own the Hospital. You MIGHT JUST come closer than you EVER thought possible. Oh and seriously consider ANYONE who can be documented to have been involved in the accident response, accident investigation, patient care on scene, or in transport. Corporately, individually, and severally. This for the record is what "Damage" looks like. Ask the lawyer about compensatory and punitive damages. And be prepared to ask the medical "professionals" (using the term INCREDIBLY LOOSELY) how the hell your dad got cleared to be initially discharged, and do NOT TAKE "Patient opted to leave AMA" without documentation, including everything up to a pecker print of the person who let him leave.

Absolutely!

Its instances just like this one is what malpractice laws were written for. I don't know the age of the patient but any head trauma gets the full ride. Just because there is a national healthcare crisis does not excuse non-renduring of emergency medicine.

It's wrong on every level and goes against the do no harm bit.

FEMA is sending 85 refrigerated trucks to New York City to serve as temporary morgues
NEW YORK (AP) — It has become a grim ritual outside New York City’s hospitals: workers in protective gear loading the bodies of coronavirus victims into refrigerated trailers.
A surge in deaths in the epicenter of the crisis in the U.S. has overwhelmed the city’s permanent morgues and filled storage spaces in many hospitals to capacity. The Federal Emergency Management Agency is sending 85 refrigerated trucks to serve as temporary morgues, the city said.

It’s been that way for days at Brooklyn Hospital Center, where a worker Tuesday wheeled out a gurney carrying a body covered in white plastic, a forklift operator carefully raised a body into the trailer and undertakers came to claim the remains of yet another of the city’s nearly 1,000 coronavirus dead.
The hospital said in a statement that the “unprecedented crisis calls for extraordinary measures” and that extra storage is needed “to accommodate the tragic spike in deaths, placing a strain on the entire system of care — from hospitals to funeral homes.”

“Grieving families cannot quickly make arrangements, and their loved ones who have passed are remaining in hospitals longer, thus the need for this accommodation,” the hospital in Brooklyn’s Fort Greene neighborhood said.
The city’s medical examiner’s office has also started operating a makeshift morgue, as it did after the Sept. 11 attacks, to provide emergency capacity as the city’s permanent facilities fill up.
The city’s coronavirus death toll more than doubled in the past four days, surging from 450 on Friday to 932 as of Tuesday morning.

For most people, the coronavirus causes mild or moderate symptoms, such as fever and cough. But for others, especially older adults and people with existing health problems, the virus can cause severe symptoms like pneumonia and can be fatal.

The city and FEMA have delivered refrigerated trucks to various hospitals, while the Office of Chief Medical Examiner has been guiding them on how to properly move and store bodies, officials said.
“To see the scenes of trailers out there and what they’re doing with those trailers — they’re freezers, and nobody can even believe it,” President Donald Trump said Tuesday.

At some hospitals, like Lenox Hill in Manhattan, the trailers are being parked on city streets, along sidewalks and in front of apartments. Cars and buses passed by as bodies were loaded Tuesday outside Brooklyn Hospital Center.
Cellphone videos posted on social media over the weekend drew attention to hospitals using trailers to store bodies. An image from one video of the activity outside Brooklyn Hospital Center appeared on the front page of Tuesday’s New York Post.

“It’s hard to believe this, but this is for real,” said the man shooting the video, his voice quaking. “Lord have mercy, help us Lord, this is for real.”
