Oxbow6 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Just heard the revenue lost from healthcare systems in this country during the first quarter of 2020 was close to $500B. If I remember the lockdowns were done as to not overwhelm hospital system so instead the lockdown in going to kill off healthcare systems financially. 1

UND1983 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Ironic that the same health care industry that's gonna need to treat everybody as they continue to get sick from the "other" viruses that aren't as important as this one, is getting gutted right now. 1
yzerman19 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 Each death is individually tragic. I would say that my parents and my wife’s parents would willingly give their lives to preserve the American way of life for their grandchildren. The problem here was actually compromise. We did neither a totalitarian nor a Free will approach, because either was too politically damaging. Instead we tried navigate the middle. King Solomon...split the child down the middle...disaster

On average, a covid patient costs just under 90k. Reimbursement won't be anywhere near that. Plus, we'll likely be way behind elsewhere in getting our revenue generating services back. Just imagine that amplified in a Medicare for all world....at least the commercially insured will cover the expenses (assuming it hits an outlier clause in days or charges)...Medicare...which I’m assuming ALL of the nursing home deaths are covered by will reimburse pennies on the dollar for Covid stays.

SiouxFan100 Posted May 9, 2020 Posted May 9, 2020 I would think legion baseball would be ok. Only problem I see would be trying to space the defense at least six feet apart! ugh

I really feel bad for these kids, they're missing a lot of events in their life they'll never get back. Graduation night was one of the coolest events in my school days. The class of 2020 will never get that. Legion Ball is pretty big in the midwest, they could've held off and took a wait and see attitude.
