It's not too long to read. Speaks to how social distancing, *right now*, is critical to spread out the inevitable crush of cases hitting our medical system.

1. That's going to be the main story in a few weeks - hospitals beyond capacity

They've already purchased a hotel in Seattle for use as an annex.

2. Exactly this.

3. That is in Kent, WA. I don't know if they'll have respirators or not.

Or enough masks. or nurses, or doctors...

But I sure hope they do!

6. That was a great thread and exactly what I have been trying

to tell people, once the healthcare system becomes overwhelmed, we will all be in trouble and they are doing the the very minimum..we are headed in a very grave direction.

[CurtEastPoint]

7. please tell me how to get to it. All is see is a shit ton of other posts of his

[dewsgirl]

13. I sent you a DM.

[Pobeka]

15. Thanks. I think this (along with good hygiene), is what healthy people should be doing right now.

Soap, water -- minimize contacts with other people as much as possible. The geometric rate of increase will literally unnecessarily kill thousands, if not tens of thousands in this country otherwise.
