Hospitals have had more than three months to prepare
They should be more than ready.

I can only speak for my state (WA), there's a heck of a lot more testing being done while the rate of positives and hospitalizations has been flat with deaths declining.
Many say the deaths and hospitalizations will increase in 14 days proportional to the increased positives. They said that 3 weeks ago and 6 weeks ago and ......

"The sky is falling, the sky is falling!" - So we shut down and crush the economy for several months. When we start to open back up and the recovery looks to be better and faster than anyone anticipated - ie. more than good enough to get President Trump re-elected... "The sky is falling, the sky is falling!"
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

The rise in cases without increase in hospitalization or death is the GOAL off the shut-down to flatten the curve. The destination is HERD IMMUNITY.
The medical folks are 1) supplied with essentials, 2) providing the most effective treatments. As a result the death rate for most ages is LESS THAN ANNUAL FLU.
The data is getting below the criteria for epidemic.... CDC must call victory and let all the states get back to normal operations.
The GOAL is HERD IMMUNITY — just like regular flu and the common cold. DO NOT MOVE THE GOALPOSTS

Number of cases means zero.
The only numbers to watch are deaths and more importantly two death rates - deaths per number of confirmed cases, and deaths per million people.
Cases that do not fall into the death category are not an expression of the virus being more deadly now. It is an expression of a lot more younger folks without comorbidity factors getting their mild and/or asymptomatic case and their share of herd immunity.
For those who still think Sweden was wrong, it’s statistical death rate is now 0%.

I call it the Democrat Virus, they are the ones who turned the virus into a political weapon. Of course, they turn EVERYTHING into political weapons.

Hey Hill, what is the death rate again? Less than .5%?
Gee- that’s some cliff there- the common flu causes that many deaths and more

putting the U.S. on the precipice of an explosion of illness that threatens to overwhelm the nation's health care system.
Sorry, this panic-porn got boring back in March.

Here in California we have a mask mandate. Do they think a federal mandate will stop the virus? California prides itself on giving the finger to federal mandates.
