I know people are confused, but that& #39;s to be expected, since bad-faith actors with agendas are hitting you from all sides.
THIS is what matters, and THIS is what @realDonaldTrump has already prevented.
It& #39;s about the TREATMENT. https://healthpolicy.ucsf.edu/icu-outcomes ">https://healthpolicy.ucsf.edu/icu-outco...

Every year, about 4 million Americans are admitted to intensive-care unit (ICUs).
People are telling you that COVID-19 is no worse than the flu, and the people who die are already compromised.
Let& #39;s agree with that for the sake of argument.

There& #39;s been a lot of controversy about the models used to project deaths from COVID-19, but you can& #39;t argue that these GUESSES are based on looking at data from other countries.
Let& #39;s take the worst-case scenario: 2.4 million deaths.
And that number shows us the catastrophe.

Of the people hospitalized with COVID-19, about 7 percent have to go into the ICU.

Of the people who go into the ICU, about 50 percent die.
And those put on ventilators remain on them for an average of ten days.

So:
COVID-19 deaths are 50 percent of those put in ICUs.
Those put in ICUs are 7 percent of hospitalizations.
Deaths MAY be as high as 2.4 million, which means that the number of infected people would cause the health-care system to collapse.

I& #39;m terrible at math, but even I can see that simply letting the illness run its course means that we lose our ability to treat anybody except for COVID-19 patients, EVEN IF THEY& #39;RE THE ONES YOU THINK ARE DISPOSABLE.
And there have to be follow-ups for those who survive.

The entire American health-care system would be devoted to diagnosing and treating people with COVID-19.
Doctors and nurses are already burning out.
In my state, cosmetic surgeons and dentists have switched over to regular medicine AT NO COST TO THE PATIENTS.

Why would they do that if this were a hoax?
Do you know how much they get paid to make women look like this?

The point of all this is to SAVE THE HEALTH-CARE SYSTEM.
Ventilators mean nothing without the staff to run them.
Letting the disease run its course was not an option, unless you& #39;re willing to give up YOUR medical treatment for years.
