We may yet be participants in this. I have to wonder how well my little psych hospital will cope. When there is no room left at the acute care level, we will be forced to care for them in house, and a lot of the nurses I work with have never worked acute care. I suspect that there will be ones that run for the hills. I don't have kids, so to me, this is what I have been trained to do. This is what I do best.

Thanks! I saw that one also.

Mostly, I am now only posting on those cases that had no obvious health issues, but died, and pregnant women. It is really shocking to me that we are losing these young mothers, and all of these young people to this virus. I always knew it was a possibilty that this would happen, but reading case after case becomes overwhelming.

I really cannot bear to look at the cases of all of those with prior existing health conditons. That caseload is getting very big. Most of our population falls into the category of having some kind of condition that would put them at risk.

We are watching the unfolding of a terrible event.
