[quote=Anonymous]When I first read this it scared me

But I keep looking at the VA dept of Health website and it says for the state they have 25 hospitalized cases for the state

Then I looked at the wait times for ERs last night and this morning for INOVA - they were under 15 minutes and some reported 0 min wait time this morning.  I also checked NYC hospital ER wait times just out curiosity and some too had a list of 15 mins or less. At least they are triaging and assessing people fairly quickly.

I am not making light of the situation and we are social distancing and in fact isolating out of caution but keep in mind that in NOVA we have lots or people who have to use the emergency room to get medical care bc they have no insurance and won’t be turned away. If a person is sick with anything they might panic and go to the ER.

And then procedures to decontaminate between patients is probably more strict and time consuming as is the mental load of calming co workers and patient fears.

I appreciate all the medical professionals who are working at this time but I have also seen this same post as the OP circulating on my FB feed - usually from a friend of a friend - so who knows if this is really someone from the DMV
