Without your high tech

In reply to All yur high tech medicine

Without your high tech medicine, we wouldn't be discussing saving lives of people needing dialysis because renal failure patients would have died from their disease. Disaster create strains on the system. In Hoston, centers that remained opened took up some of the slack. Nurses and doctors worked hours to treat patients from other centers. People had to travel long distances to get to centers that remained in service.

In most settings, one of the first things rescue services do is track down dialysis centers and patients. Dialysis centers are instructed to have disaster plans.

The CDC also has detailed instructions

Obviously, if the electrical grid goes down and generators run out of fuel, there is no solution. The idea was for Trump to stop tweeting and pay attention to detail. It would also be helpful for his stooge to say that we had a good news story in Puerto Rico. Dialysis centers should have been targeted early on for service.

In reply to "All died in ICU. Every one."

All yur high tech medicine that his type of rightie likes to laud as supposedly making "USA health care system #1" all for naught without that electrical juice.

Surely there's going to be a ton of deaths from stuff like lack of dialysis in outpatient treatment, too. It's already been way too long for many of them to survive the damage of not having it. (Once you have someone close to you needing dialysis, you realize how very common that need is-not to mention what a big business it is-people are way too private about this one particular handicap, the clinics are often very discretely marked.)

Trump insults Puerto Rican leader while off golfing, thinks being an incompetent unhelpful dick is how to handle a crisis. #ImpeachTrump. He's simply too dangerous.
