Tokyo Hospital Asso. says the sky is falling

[Taro Toporific]

Urgent message from Tokyo Hospital Association
https://tmha.net/important/20201218_message.html
Currently, it is just before the collapse of medical care in Tokyo.
① If the number of infected people continues to increase as it is and the number of people in Tokyo exceeds 1,000 a day,
it is highly probable that some people will die without receiving appropriate medical care...
② Healthcare workers, especially nurses, are becoming exhausted.
In addition to fatigue in the field of medical care, private life is strongly regulated for a long period of 10 months or more in order to prevent outbreaks in hospitals caused by bringing in infections from outside.
...it is essential to take a very strong response comparable to a state of emergency or lockdown.
