Flight Instruction: Just Say No - AVweb

“As of today, 3/30/20, no US health care system is overwhelmed…”

I guess that depends upon your definition of “overwhelmed.”

In talking to doctors and nurses in NYC you get a different picture. I have friends working there. Currently they’re using refrigerated trailers parked on nearby streets as temporary morgues to handle all of the dead. Doctors are given one N95 mask and being told, “make it last a week.” A tent field hospital is being set up in Central Park to handle the overflow. Patients are being lined up in hallways because the rooms and ICUs are full.

And the peak is yet to come.
