What’s a resource?

An ICU is an example.

Long story short, the answer is no.

"In sum, of the 14 RCTs that have tested the effectiveness of masks in preventing the transmission of respiratory viruses, three suggest, but do not provide any statistically significant evidence in intention-to-treat analysis, that masks might be useful. The other eleven suggest that masks are either useless—whether compared with no masks or because they appear not to add to good hand hygiene alone—or actually counterproductive. Of the three studies that provided statistically significant evidence in intention-to-treat analysis that was not contradicted within the same study, one found that the combination of surgical masks and hand hygiene was less effective than hand hygiene alone, one found that the combination of surgical masks and hand hygiene was less effective than nothing, and one found that cloth masks were less effective than surgical masks."

Ask those godbothering republicans who have died from covid, if given the chance would they defy the best advice available.

Why do you republicans invent these hideous scenarios purely to demonstrate your hatred if dtns, which is what this is.
If trump had got off his lard arse when it hit, maybe we wouldn't be here.
He was in complete control then and did nothing. Now you are pointing the finger at any cheap target you can. Go away.

You literally can't understand that people feeling stress is not the same thing as putting stress on a system. Retard.

No, the facility itself is part of the healthcare system. We could talk about not enough beds witch stresses the system too.

But, you're convinced that "stress" is only related to humans. This is a really stupid and pointless argument, even for you.

 

[iamwhatiseem]

They say they don't work right on the fucking boxes they come in.

Can't any of you maskurbators read for comprehension?

"makurbator"....

Except for the fact that over 200 healthcare workers in two SF area hospitals tested positive.

Lakhota pls put down the Peace crack pipe...

About 200 staff members at a San Francisco hospital and the U.C.S.F. health system have tested positive. (Published 2021)

Most were breakthrough Delta infections. Two of those infected required hospitalization.
