Its not even close, to stressed yet.

Cuomo said theres 53,000+ hospital beds (and their working towards getting 140,000 beds).
Currently covid-19 only has 7,328 "extra" people hospitalised (in new york state) + 1,755 ICU patients.

New York has had 52,000+ confirmed cases.
7,328 hospitalised (~14,1%) (% might rise in days to come, cuz its early into it).

Shouldn't be a issue yet.


Edit:
Even the ventilator thingy isnt a issue yet.  
1755 covid patients on ventilators out of 3000+ (with 4,000 extra in stock).
1755/7000 = more than fine.

^ the sucky news, is that once your on a ventilator with covid-19, your survival rate drops down below 50%.

This is a big part of the reason why it got to this point and will get much worse. The only way to stop it is to stop it early. However then everyone would have been crying that it is/was not necessary so that path was not taken. Plus most people couldn't imagine what exponential growth actually entails, most still can't. 

Currently we're in the hammer phase, it can still be slowed like Italy shows. If everyone actually does their part it will be stopped dead in its tracks in a couple weeks, it doesn't have to take longer than the max incubation time. However the numbers are still too low for a lot of people to think of it as anything more than a nasty flu. Perhaps instead of numbers the news should show what's going in Italy in the hospitals. But that would cause other people to panic more again and do stupid things at the other end of the spectrum. Humanity sucks, we can't get together to execute a solution that will work.

Easter Monday is 16 days from now, with current growth rates in Europe and the USA, Easter Sunday will be adding 320K new cases to Europe that day and 21K deaths that day, 286K new cases for the USA and 5300 deaths. It should be much less than that since social distancing is having some effect already but it's only been a few days since France extended the lock down to the rest of the country while many places are still not all that serious about enforcing/encouraging social distancing. It's going to grow until Easter at least.

If everyone does their part, stuff can go back to relatively normal in a month. However we may already be too late to have a normal left to go back to. The health care system in Italy and Spain are already suffering major losses.

Yet if people keep at the notion that it's not necessary, worse for the economy, and keep going on about as usual, it will only take longer and do exponentially more damage, both to the people and to the economy.

And how well is your economy going to do when other countries isolate you to save themselves from re-infection?

how many of these beds/ICUs/ventilators are currently in use by ppl that don't have covid-19 though?

No idea.... probably slightly less than normally are, I would guess.

Why take the risk of doing surgeries ect, now when hosptials start filling up with covid patients.
So less than normal, but probably not "none".

I can ensure you... If you are in Australia, that will not be the case.
As a first responder and on the front lines... We don't give a shit how big your wallet is.

The VGChartz community has been preparing this for years to come it seems.

It's not overblown... It's mortality rate for the elderly, disabled and those with compromised immune systems (I.E. Chemo patients) is pretty damn high.

The mortality rate for the younger, fitter and healthy is negligible. - However we need to retain our distancing and keep exposure to a minimum so as not to pass the disease on to those who are more at risk.

Basically... We need to stop being selfish and think of others. - We should all be capable of doing that.

To also be fair... The last Pandemic the worlds population wasn't as large or as dense it is currently, which has aided the spread.
Our interlocking global economies which promoted convenient travel expedited the issue.

In short... Even with a lower mortality rate, the number of TOTAL deaths can be equal or higher than past scenarios.

Let's be realistic... That won't happen, the populace of the USA will cry that it is "socialism" and a waste of tax payer money, they would rather give tax breaks to big business and the rich.

Let's see how the big business and the rich does when no one can afford to buy anything... Because the price of everything increased, jobs have been lost.

This has to be one of the most stupid advices I have ever heard in my life. How old are your parents and grandparents? I guess you don't have anyone in your family that you care about since you are willing to put their lives in danger just because you want to "go out and have fun."

Oh, and btw, if you get sick, even if you don't die, you will still be forced to be in bed for a few weeks, so you won't be able to "go out and have fun" anyways.

Caramel by itself isn't that great but caramel inside candy bars is pretty good.  That being said I prefer Snickers over Twix.  As far as stuff made by Mars Inc. I actually like Starbusts and Skittles better then their candy bars.

Agreed. I to think that the mortality ratio is lower than reported due to people self isolating and showing no symptoms. I actually "want" the virus simply to build immunity, I'm also young and healthy but that simply isn't the point.

You risk infecting someone not in your position. Someone elderly and/or with underlying heath issues they potentially don't even know about. Could you live with yourself if you were responsible for infecting and killing someone? I couldn't.

How much have you donated?

They have given more. They gave $25 million dollars.

It's not the point? You've donated nothing?
