The next step: Hospitals in New Mexico will ration COVID-19 care, other states to follow (hotair.com)
6 Dec 2020 ~~ By Karen Townsend
Hospitals across New Mexico are operating at or near capacity. Many hospitals are close to running out of ICU beds and regular beds, too. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham announced that soon hospitals may go to “crisis standards of care” which means that COVID-19 care will be rationed depending on the likelihood of the patient’s survival.
This sounds like the horror stories of socialized medicine in countries like England. People wait long periods of time for necessary procedures and often denied lifesaving operations if the patient is deemed too high of a risk for survival. Most of those who end up needing hospitalization for COVID-19 are the elderly or those compromised with existing pre-conditions. Will the elderly, those most likely to die from the virus, be denied a hospital bed? Will those who are diabetic or overweight or have heart disease be written off? What about black and Hispanic people who are more likely to be infected with the virus? This is a really slippery slope.
Governor Grisham went so far as to shut down grocery stores and other shops just before Thanksgiving in order to mitigate the spread of the coronavirus. New Mexico is experiencing a dramatic spike in cases despite the almost draconian measures being taken. Grisham shuts down businesses over rapid test results. She issued a public health order that a business must close if four or more rapid responses of COVID-19 cases are reported within a 14-day period. The order requires the businesses to close for two weeks, even essential businesses like grocery stores. Public health experts sing her praises for taking such strong actions. Nonetheless, positive cases continue to climb and hospitalizations continue to increase.
Comment:
If you catch this disease, we're told it's because of insufficient obedience to the State. It's like the old medieval belief that illness was a punishment for sinning against God.
Hydroxychloroquine prevents it, and also cures those in the early stages. Frontline Doctors have used it successfully in thousands of cases, and they've been almost completely censored by Big Tech and the Quisling Media.
Europe and the UK are also suffering an upswing in the Chinese Covid virus.
looking at the data from elsewhere in the world. Sweden did basically nothing and they've had it no worse than anywhere else. If you look at graphs of infection from anywhere, it's the same curve, regardless of the response.
Governor Grisham's decision to use "crisi management" and abandon those with comorbid diseases and the elderly will be tantamount to genocide for those that fall into that category.
Now the we have president elect China Joe, I'm sure that his administration will rubber stamp it and use that nationwide, while withholding the distribution of the vaccine as promsed by Trump.
