Reply to comment by mdpaoli in Flu, COVID, and RSV have strained Philly hospitals. Is the ‘tridemic’ our new normal? by jargito

That’s true, but at my hospital at least, it is unlike anything we have ever seen before. The system is stretched in a way that I’m not sure is sustainable, and they’ve told us to buckle down to at least April.

I read that Lakenau had their ER shut down the other day because there were 50+ patients waiting there to get a room upstairs.

Paoli was sort of like that last year. Not shut down but the lobby became full and people were being treated in offices. Had to go a few times and it was crazy how little space there was for everyone
