Lol no disrespect taken.
Because of the large retirement population there is also a larger percentage of medical facilities in place then most places,but that is why they directed everybody to the clinics,in order to keep the hospital beds freed up.
There is a major hospital 3 miles from me that has had 3 complete floors that have been empty for the last 5 years because they sprout up like beans.
Last year the flu overwhelmed the UKs health system to the breaking point and beyond,if it gets that bad you can bet no city or state will be able to deal with it.
But if it gets to that point there are lots of large stadiums etc. or buildings that they can turn into emergency containment centers.
They have been running these situations sense the Cold War they know how to deal with it on a massive scale,the unknown factor is the panic mode.
But the flu was viewed as just the flu and even though it can be spread just like this thing,there was no containment strategies,stopped flights etc.
They showed how it attacked the lungs with xrays,the flu did it as a large clump where as this thing kinda flattens out and coats a larger surface like putting a coating over the surface which restricts the lungs ability to absorb oxygen.
And they still do not know how it mutates in its jump from person to person.
That is why it is tricky,every person reacts differently according to how it mutates.Makes it hard to get a one size fits all cure.That is what I am gathering from it all anyways.
That is what is fueling the panic in the markets and streets,the unknown,once they figure out what drives it then they can get it in check and it will be back to business to usual,no need to freak out over the unknown.
