Priorities right ...is the Coronavirus dilemma that difficult?

When I read this I wonder and am not sure.

I see now hospitals all over America are granting staff leave of absence because there is no work for them. Hospitals serving smaller towns are in danger of shutting down because they cannot survive any longer due to all routine tests, treatments and operations being cancelled due to the focus on Covid-19. Thousands of health workers are in danger of losing their jobs, ordinary people are in danger of losing their access to basic health services, all in preparation for the supposed Covid-19 stampede.

At the same time, the Army's field hospital in Seattle set up to contend with the expected overwhelming corona numbers has packed up shop after three days without treating a single patient.

Everyone has suddenly forgotten about the 2018 flu season which overran US hospitals to the point where certain surgeries had to be cancelled, staff had to work overtime, tents had to be erected to accommodate the numbers. Hospitals were labelled "a war zone". Alabama had to declare a state of emergency. Hospitals overrun is nothing new to the US in flu season despite what the MSM now wants you to believe. Laying off and furloughing thousands of hospital staff all over the country to enable hospitals to survive? That's pretty new as far as I can tell.

Smelling something funny yet?

Smelling something funny yet?

Yes.... dead bodies.

Yes....dead bodies.

Wait until the locked down poor get to the point of starvation (we're already there in many communities). Wait until people who have families to support run out of hope for any relief or aid and see only one way out. Wait until the economy is so shot and so many businesses have shut down and people lost their jobs that there isn't enough buying power left to get out of the slump for years to come. Covid-19 is going to look like a joke.

Last year's flu in Australia, random internet article:

"Ms Williams is one of the nearly 217,000 Australians diagnosed with influenza so far this year.

The national death toll officially stands at 430, although the real figure could be much higher with experts saying some deaths are attributed to other causes despite flu-related complications.

In Queensland this year, at least 84 people have died.

Mother of three Jacinta Foulds died in hospital this month after being admitted when her flu symptoms worsened.

'If you're sick, go to the doctor'

'If you're sick, go to the doctor'

A mother of three has died from the flu, with her husband sharing his grief just hours after her death to warn others how quickly the virus can take hold.

Her grieving husband pleaded with people to get vaccinated.

"I've got three kids without a mum because of a flu," he said.

"This stuff kills.

"If you're sick, go to the doctor."

It is one of the worst seasons in two decades, second only to the flu epidemic of 2017.

In some states the flu season appears to be over, but the number of people being diagnosed in the eastern states remains high.

The very young and the elderly are the most at risk.

In KZN...91 year old suffering from diabetes croakes....mmm how unusual.

No it's not funny when you lose somebody you love  but there again there's an exit point som ewhere and I think a diabetic who lives to 91 has had a damn fine innings...corona or not.

It's just getting bit overplayed and ridiculous in the priority sections of SA and yes the world.

Panic, fear, panic, fear...far more deadly than any sickness.

Government then passes arbitrary rulings...woman in Three Anchor Bay arrested taking her poodle for a 50 metre walk just outside her cramped apartment for a piss.???

There's talk of moving into Phase 2 in early May which  means schools will reopen.

Summer had no impact on the virus in Australia.
