     covid is not "just a cold" this is misinformation
     
     this kind of thing will continue to happen as long as covid is allowed to continue to exhaust resources at the hospital level

     @jeffcliff you don't need to pay attention to that. Pay attention to what happened to the guy in the story, the quality of care his mother was given.
     
     It is unacceptable.

     Totally agreed. Which is why we need to end covid so it neither gets in the way of cancer treatment, nor causes more cancer to treat
     
     My aunt died in circumstances very similar to this so this one hits close to home.

     @jeffcliff There isn't going to be an end. Your witch doctor will see you now. Did you remember your animal to sacrifice?

     yes, but I also think insurance has ruined it. they charge the insurance companies a lot more than if you pay privately. so there’s a scam running. Just look at the bills, there’s adjustments all over the place and you have no idea what your being charged for or what your getting half the time. If you choose to pay cash I bet bill is half, maybe 2/3ds what they would charge insurance. so my insurance is paying for the people who can’t pay the hospital, and I can barley afford my own insurance. The whole system is fucked.

     Yes, it’s sickening. they run all the single practice doctors out of business or absorb them into the hospital. there are no alternatives any more. they have all the customers and they can do whatever they want. it suck is an understatement.
     
     It’s not about Covid full stop

     It seems to be more about a system that "has to" take care of people who are unable to pay for services, so those who can pay are footing the bill for those who can't pay as well...

     all of these things are symptoms of the clusterfuck that is US healthcare
     
     > The hospitals aren’t run for helping people, they want to make as much as they can.
     
     and, clearly this is exactly what's wrong with the US system
     
     > npr link
     
     and they are crowded because declaring 'mission accomplished' doesn't actually get rid of covid.

     ...and this probably didn't happen right now, it probably happened earlier, when they were. Everyone else in this thread is just assuming they know the details of what's going on, when they don't.
     
     anyway , that's a flaw in american healthcare, even if true, which i doubt. They probably hum closer to 90%

     Here’s the first link I picked. The hospitals aren’t run for helping people, they want to make as much as they can. If you can’t find staff maybe pay them better and work them less.
     Also people need to stop going to the fucking emergency room because they are to lazy to find a PCP or because they have no insurance or they are here illegally.

     Hospitals are businesses, they like to run at near 100% or they’re losing money and they aren’t filled with Covid patients rn.

     hospitals being overloaded with covid / hospital staff being burned out by covid / hospitals having to do online consults due to infectious disease protocol isn't funny at all
     
     it's a fucking tragedy
