Are they really full? Being overwhelmed with new patients?
Isn't it neat how you'll be disobeying orders to go check?
That said, some in Canada claim to have a flu and they called the hotline and weren't even called back. Canadian government is still taking flights from China, Peru and other places as of TODAY. 1 + 1 is not adding up to 2 and your instincts that something is fishy is more than justified I think.
Let us know if you find anything.
The same thing is happening in the US. My wife had a fever, cough, and trouble breathing. The doctor told her to stay at home, and contact her if the symptoms persisted for 4 days. She calls 4 days later with the same symptoms and the doctor tells her to wait another 4 days. The doctor refused to test her and other local health agencies gave her the run around. At this point, all of the symptoms have cleared up except for the trouble breathing, but she feels mostly better.
I suspect they are trying to hide the number of mild cases to make the situation look worse than it is. This way, the government can impose unconstitutional Stay at home orders like in Michigan.
Just went out for junk food yesterday, in MI. Lighter than usual traffic, but certainly not the empty streets I had expected. Looked like any other weekend day, on a weekday.
Tons of folks out jogging or walking dogs, though. More than usual.
In my area, the streets are empty. Main Street at noon is usually packed, but lately it has been a ghost town.
