Shocking Footage Inside NYC Hospital Reveals Outbreak 'War Zone' As Patients Pour In

by Tyler Durden

“Well, this is a warzone, a medical warzone,” Dr. Arabia Mollette told CBS New York at Brooklyn’s Brookdale Hospital Medical Center, which has been at maximum capacity after a huge influx of critical COVID-19 patients. “Every day I come, what I see on a daily basis is pain, despair, suffering and healthcare disparities.”

Currently there are over 51,000 confirmed cases in New York City, after earlier this week Gov. Cuomo predicted as many as 16,000 deaths would result across New York state. “This is not just New York,” he said, citing projections produced by the Gates Foundation. “If you believe these numbers — 16,000 deaths in New York — that means you’re going to get tens of thousands of deaths outside of New York.”

The below shocking footage was produced by the CBS affiliate, revealing the growing strain and chaos which has hit New York hospitals over the past week, now as the total US death toll has soared past 6,000 with 1,562 of these in NYC alone.

"Patient beds line the hallways at Brookdale - there's physically no more room as every inch of this building is now being used," the CBS narrator observes in the segment.

CBS New York provided the following description of what its reporters saw:

This hospital has 370 beds, but that’s not enough.

Not only are they running out of room for the sick, they’re running out of room for those who’ve died. The morgue is filled and a refrigerated trailer is now parked outside for overflow.

One thing they have been able to do is develop rapid testing in-house with the ability to conduct 300 tests per day.

Thus far over 100 COVID-19 infected patients have walked through the ER doors, with at least another 70 suspected cases under investigation.

“This virus sees no it is no difference,” Dr. Mollette said further. “It has nothing to do with age, has nothing to do with access to healthcare, has nothing to do with socio-economics, race or ethnicity. This virus is killing a lot of people.”

Re: "With her age . . and decades of alcohol abuse . . . She might not survive her date with the Corona-Virus."
True. Most people DO survive it, but the odds are dramatically worse for both drunks and septuagenarians. clo's biggest concern should be that if she IS one of the unfortunate few who get it in their lungs, she'll need hospitalization but those in her area will not be admitting new patients. I expect to see some NYC hospitals fully booked in just a few days.

What are the odds that she'll catch COVID-19 while her hospitals are in that state? Pretty good. In spite of the high odds that NYC will hit peak deaths (~ 75,000 per day) within three weeks, the disease itself will be rampant in her area for the next three months. I don't believe clo has anywhere near three months' worth of food stockpiled. If she goes out for food without a P100 mask, there's an excellent chance she'll be sucking down viruses. She only lives about 35 miles from the city after all, and there are probably hundreds of undiagnosed COVID-19 transmitters in Mahopac by now.

Truth be told, the one I'm feeling sorry for is clo's mother. She's vulnerable too. If her liver is healthy, her chances are better than clo's. (Is your Mom like you in that respect, clo? My guess is not since she's 86 or 87 and probably wouldn't have made it that long if she had a drinking problem.)
