I think the implication was that hospital staffs are overworked with Covid-19 but that normal every day emergency situations are still going to happen.

I stopped reading stories cause of this. Your likelyhood of getting critically ill is very small. The issue was never that it was always that our capacity since everyone will probably get sick is very small, but we aren't acting as if this is what we are dealing with

> Example, last time I looked at the stats, 20-40 had 0.2-0.4% chance of being critically ill from covid19.

Source? Because I think you'd need a lot more testing to say for sure, at least in the US

More test would lower that number not increase it. They are testing people who go into the ICU testing at this point would be for people not in the ICU dropping that number like a rock
