[/quote] So you’re conceding that this is rationing HEALTHCARE and that Trump is wrong to continue to write this off as the flu like he did yesterday during the FOX TOWNHALL? [/quote] Not about Trump. The ones who say dont listen to him are the ones who listenthe most. ??? Lets talk about head of the hospital and how many are sick and how many ventilators are on site?? Where i live the hospital durector has said come to the hospital. We have plenty of ventilators and we also have some that can be repurposed for this as well. We have also been told by all schools and vocational schools that they are donating all of the medical equipment as well. Nobody is sitting around bashing or approving Trump because they are getting the job done. Must be nice to sit around all day and worry about Trump at chicago's hospitals. I think they need to be contacting elon musk as he is now making and shipping ventilators. There was also a military supply of 500k being transported. Reach out and up. Not look down and stomp. [/quote] The same mask shortage blamed on Obama 3 years later How can we defeat an enemy that we are not even allowed to know the basic facts about to identify what we are truly up against We need confirmation on some of these rumors we keep hearing from multiple strains with multiple mutations to modified genome splicing of HIV proteins that are aerosolized for 3 fucking hours floating through central air conditioning systems in every building throughout America This President just compared this to the flu again not even 3 days ago on FOX The one thing that China had on us was they were already conditioned to wear masks which is what is allowing their cities to GRADUALLY come back online months later after almost a billion people were quarantined The entire region was conditioned to wear masks with multiple drills to prepare them for this That substantially slowed down their outbreak allowing China to get out ahead of this where is it’s too late for us We are literally chasing our fucking tails when this President needed to ground all flights a month ago Social Distancing is like having a NO SMOKING SECTION on an airplane or a NO PEEING SECTION in a jacuzzi and you’re worried about masks when everyone is going to get it at some point so we need a more efficient treatment than what Dr. Trump prescribed because that won’t work for everybody knowing each one of these multiple strains is different The link below proves that in spades from accredited Alumni that are board certified doctors discussing how bad these strains are and comparing notes It’s like Trump is having a competition playing right into Xi’s hands to see who can claim they’re back to maximum operational capacity China was willing to gnaw off it’s own leg to defeat this virus by turning millions of patients away from the hospitals to self-isolate in their homes and die which allowed beds to stay open for the government puppet masters and their families Those that would not comply were barricaded in their own homes with entire apartment complexes having their doors welded shut and incinerated to burn this virus out Even now multiple areas in China are still being quarantined The experts below say Trump is full of shit and is lying It’s not a giant conspiracy again at him It’s against us https://texags.com/forums/84/topics/3102444/3#discussion [/quote]

Sounds a lot like Italy's measures.
From the article:
Hospitals on the front lines of the pandemic are engaged in a heated private debate over a calculation few have encountered in their lifetimes — how to weigh the “save at all costs” approach to resuscitating a dying patient against the real danger of exposing doctors and nurses to the virus’s contagion.
The conversations are driven by the realization that the risk to staff amid dwindling stores of protective equipment — such as masks, gowns and gloves — may be too great to justify the conventional response when a patient “codes,” and their heart or breathing stops.
Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago has been discussing a universal do-not-resuscitate policy for infected patients, regardless of the wishes of the patient or their family members — a wrenching decision to prioritize the lives of the many over the one.
