[QUOTE="Dr.Brownz, post: 4404551, member: 52793"] Hospitals in Italy are overrun. Doctors are deciding who gets care and who doesn't. The stats aren't what is worrying, it's the physical reality of what is happening at the hospitals there. Hospital infrastructure can only handle so many people. In my regions hospital there are 20 ICU beds. If more than 20 people get severely sick, care will be rationed and some people just won't get it. Imagine that on a national level. These social distancing measures are to maybe slow down infection rate so we don't get to that point. Yeah I understand it's mostly older people dying, but if all these rich old people overwhelm the system it's going to cause a problem for everyone. [/QUOTE]
