How about counting the amount of refrigerated trucks that were used as makeshift morgues? How about counting the makeshift hospital units that were set up in public ramp garages for the excessive amount of patients? How about counting all those patients that were turned away from hospitals because they were overwhelmed with excess patients? How about those EMTs that had to make decisions of who is transported to hospitals and who was left to die at home? How about all those exhausted health care workers pleading with America to wear masks and social distance? Many of them suffer from PTSD today.

I could go on an on and on and on. Anyone who is not aware of these horrendous scenarios was just not watching, reading and listening to news sources that were reporting what was happening in our country. No sugar coating was done. I saw with my own eyes those scenarios. This was our America??
