Local hospitals here in PA creating extra wings and bringing in literally any doctor and or nurse from practices or possibly out of practice possible. Head of health system said if rate continues there is no way possible they can keep up. Sobering to see in your own backyard.
Alek is usually dead on, and clearly is again in this case. Here in Central PA, a basic code red has been put out for area hospitals and there’s next to no room for anyone new to come in. It’s getting very worrisome and sad.
It’s just very sad, my mom was in tears she runs benefits for whole hospital system and doctors are coming in on no sleep and completely emotionally shot. It’s literally terrible and trying to make room to take more people.
Local hospital my mom works at completely out of ICU room, 5 people waiting to be given ICU beds, patients on gurneys in halls waiting for rooms. It’s a big mess.
I thought hitting just west of an area was worst possible thing from wind and surge perspective? I’m not real well versed in hurricanes so I’m not sure on any of this though.
Pine creek is the lowest I’ve ever seen it up in Western Lycoming county, thinking we could be in some trouble fairly soon if we don’t change this pattern to some rainy days soon.
Starting to run rampant here in PA, two local colleges with large outbreaks going all online, two nursing homes hard hit, one with 26 deaths in last 3 weeks...local jail and federal jail with ongoing outbreaks.
