so what??? they don't go to hospital all at once??? so if all these people showed up at hospital at one time we would take notice to something that kills up to 650,000 people a year? and because they don't its ok and there is no reason for us to react as we are now? so basically since the flu "Virus" kills gradually there is no need for alarm? and this occurs year after year after year, just think how much smaller the number could be if we reacted in the same way....or should I say overreacted.

Actually, you are correct. The "alarm" you are referring to is the inability of our health care system to handle a major crisis of patients from any cause.
Think about the healthcare system as a freeway, patients go in, patients go out, people get treated. The cars keep moving. If you slam the freeway with a quarter million cars all at once, it stops. It breaks. That is the crisis, the numbers of people needing care at one time. It is not an infinite resource. There are only so many beds, masks, doctors, and hospitals. When they are full people don't get care. It's a capacity issue. Regardless of the cause.
So the number of people dying from the flu is a totally irrelevant argument. Yeah, it's a shame they died, but like the cars on the freeway, the system can handle the people. If you get sick you need care. If the hospital is full you won't get it. That's the threat, so many people will need care at one time the system will break for all of us...covid 19 sufferers, heart attacks, gun shots, cancer, etc.
Flu patients get treatment. There are shots, vaccines, hospital beds and doctors. Just like heart attacks, cancer, and car accidents some will die. But they got treatment. The system worked. It's still under capacity.
The health care system is just another factory that only has so much capacity. Once the factory is full, that's it.
explain your ifs....sounds like the man made global warming, climate change allarmists....IF, IF,.IF,.IF
What if no TP is ever produced again...what IF <if< if<="" html=""></if<>
Yee, haa, I'll have one H--- of a cob market! $$$$$$$$$
I got cash to invest!!!!

LIKE.
do the math..... the regular flu cases are a huge number, and so far, even with all the hype the c-19 virus won't come close, yet we are hearing of hysteria about not having enough hospital beds....hypothetically , of course....
and when the numbers pale in comparison months from now all of the crisis cryers will say thank gaws we rected like we did....heroes is us.

Sure, I can explain the ifs easily...IF THE HOSPITAL IS FULL THEN YOU DONT GET TREATMENT.
simple
There are supposed to be several new ways to test on the way. Including much faster and also self testing.
I will admit I was a fox news watcher until this came about and the final draw was when bars and restaurants were ordered to close and they made themselves the police to this order and sent out their anchor people out to find out who was and who wasn't following the order and then making a news story about the one they found who didn't, i hope they were proud of themselves and I have to laugh though when they interviewed the owner, his response was that of which i'm sure was the opinion of most level headed people. Fox news...no thanks!
I assume you're referring to Saloon on Calhoun? They got some very good and very bad publicity all in one shot, just depended which side of the fence you're on. I like that that stayed open.
