Acts 24:15 15 And have hope toward God, which they themselves also allow, that there shall be a resurrection of the dead, both of the just and unjust. 1 John 2:22 Who is the liar? It is whoever denies that Jesus is the Christ. Such a person is the antichrist |

My town is about 150k, pretty big hospital with a testing site. I'll check this thread before I go so leave your questions. |

Quite the contrary, they are fairly empty. I don't know if this phrase is trending, but more than one of my nurse friends ended their "status update" text with #waitingforthesurge. Quoting: conspiracyhead 29920232 Bottom line: there are no signs of a pandemic. In fact, one of my close friends spend the past 2 days at the hospital converting PACU space to create an expanded ICU unit, and it's sitting empty along with half of the regular ICU unit. I still don't know exactly what is going on. But if GLP members really wanted to make a difference they should create a thread for each state/area to communicate what's going on in real-time. Information is the key!!!! Philly here. No surge yet. Walk by Jeff and Penn ERs every day w/ dog. When I passed today at 11 AM, Nurses were having dance-offs in the testing area (parking lot) because no one was there at all. |

The city of Aurora, Illinois, has a population of 200,000. Only 3 people have died of COVID-19. [link to www.aurora-il.org (secure)] 67 people have tested positive, but most of them--including the mayor--are simply at home, often still working remotely. |

The owner of a small local health food store and I were exchanging news this past weekend. He said a customer of his who is a nurse at a nearby, large, supposedly cutting edge hospital, was processing paperwork for someone who had just died in her ward. She had cared for the guy, but he had a respiratory infection with complications and wasn’t able to pull out of it. When she came to the place on the form listing ‘cause of death’ she found it had been listed as ‘coronavirus’. Well, his charts had never mentioned anything about this, so she questioned the doctor who had filled out the form. He told her they ‘had been instructed to list all deaths as coronavirus’. In this case the victim had never been ‘tested’, so the doctor was simply following orders. So much for the integrity of the ‘advanced’ health professional, although you can see at the level of the nursing staff, they are none too comfortable with this. She also said the wards were not only empty of coronavirus patients… but were quieter than is normal. |
