I just found out from my wife who works in a hospital that a single patient can represent multiple covid positives

that's fake news but one thing that isn't is they are very worried about people going into hospitals to see if anyone is really in there, coverups show guilt. I guess they figure people will catch covid. How about letting us go in there with a big old containment suit on.

"to see if anyone is really in there" There are always patients in hospitals... and if you were going into a hospital for a non-covid reason you wouldn't see the ward they're keeping covid patients in anyway.

well they were laying people off at hospitals because they had no patients for them to care for, that made corona look like a hoax cuz you'd think they'd need all hands on deck. They need some transparency. If corona is for real then these hospitals must be packed with patients, we keep hearing how it is going thru the roof right now. And they don't have enough doctors and nurses. And are running out of beds for patients. Might be true but let's see proof. People don't trust medical community because we know they just want money, and we know media lied about WMDs. So there's a trust gap.

They could be short on staff at one hospital while laying off staff at another. This would be especially expected since any particularly infectious disease would show up in pockets, thus effecting individual hospitals a lot while not effecting others at all. Logically they would just send the patients to other hospitals, but for many reasons that's not happening. And since the media's agenda is to exaggerate the threat as much as possible they will straight up lie and say "hospitals are overwhelmed" and when called out on it they will just claim "we didn't lie, there are SOME hospitals that were overwhelmed".

I think the best way to explain to one of the sheep that this pandemic is a scare tactic is to point out that if it were real we would be on a hiring binge for medical workers. We would have doubled and tripled the staff by now just to have them on standby for when the shit hits the fan. The opposite is happening and that proves that the scale of the problem is utter bullshit.
