In DC, where I work, as well as Suburban MD & VA, the local hospitals had plenty of beds available...

How NY hospital faced COVID devastation and came back from the brink - ABC News

Elmhurst had a patient roster that was over 230% capacity during the last week of February and the first week of March of 2020. Nearly all of those patients were critically ill with COVID-19. Within those walls, essential workers were overwhelmed with treating these patients. Staff witnessed extensive devastation as well as hundreds of lives lost.

I thought I heard somewhere that Pfizer was ripping people off & I listen to Fox News too. Didn’t hear this on CNN but that didn’t surprise me! Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m sure I heard this?

One hospital...

Unfortunately, treating patients improperly (they didn't know better at the time)...

That was NOT the norm...

Hospitals were reporting ICUs at 90% capacity, as if that was some sort of an emergency.

ICUs are supposed to operate near capacity. The expand and contract beds, based on need. It is foolish to keep all ICU beds staffed at 20% use. It's is not cost effective.

Not the stats I saw. If what you say is true, then CDC was lying.

I’ve been a Pfizer shareholder for many years. The company’s net profit in 2021, 2 years into COVID, was about the same as it was in 2017, 2 years before COVID! Their stock price today is about what it was at the end of 2018, a year before any thought of a COVID vaccine.

So where does this impression of ‘record profits’ come from? And why does the media keep portraying Pfizer as the ‘enemy’? A lot of people would be dead if all the drug companies disappeared!

Is Fox also railing against the profits oil companies made in 2022 since some of the evening opinion hosts blamed the Biden administration for high gas prices?

Five major oil companies have reported their 2022 profits, smashing last year’s highs:
Exxon: $55.7 billion — setting a company record and bringing in $6.3 million an hour
Chevron: $36.5 billion – doubling their 2021 profits, with executives touting their “outstanding results” in an earnings call
Marathon: $14.5 billion — Q4 profit of $3.32 billion surged 331% from previous year
Valero: $11.6 billion – 866% higher than the previous year
Phillips 66: $11 billion — Q4 profit of $1.9 billion up 46% over Q4 2021

Faux News is not journalism it is entertainment. Tuckerboy thinks you want to be outraged about Covid, so that is the fiction he presents to you

"Faux News is not journalism it is entertainment."



Dangerous and harmful "entertainment."

Faux News caters to (and makes a lot of money off of) the gullible/not-real-bright, who want to be lied to, refuse to watch/read legitimate news sources - so their personal outrage/hatred/prejudices can be stoked.

Insults and name calling really help your point...

You spelled "CNN/MSNBC" wrong...

I could call you names, but I won't... It seems to be your "go to"...

But pray tell... What are the "legitimate" news sources that YOU watch?

No one was alone in this, Albert B. is very share holder driven, if you've owned (or now own) Pfizer stock, you probably do some research into a CEO, try to get a "feel" for their priorities. Then let's remember we had a president in that circle Pushing for a scheme for "how we can make unimaginable amounts of money". Fauci was already known to be open to "dealing", so, sure, it's pure capitalism, only this had the added punch by cutting in the president, and a government "scientist" (who makes even more money than the president or vice president) so we all should know how these things go. Then the other 50% of this equation is customers. No matter what is offered for sale, you have to have a willing and motivated customer base ! Throw in government (tax payer) funds, health insurance payments, and a customer base frantic to get as many shots as they could as soon as possible, and you have the recipe for big bucks. Difficult now to think back how people nearly "fought" to get as many shots and boosters as they were allowed. The fact the president had absolved Pfizer of all possible legal actions (since the drug was, for all practical purposes, untested and unproved except for a very short hurried "trial", so again you have a perfect scenario for making a LOT of money ! When that makes me angry, I stop and think of the alternative, a system where ONLY the government manufactures and controls all drugs ! ? Pick you evil I guess !

Good grief, Fox news, or Tucker Carlson, or ANY commentator aside, don't you think the whole Covid period has more than enough to be outraged about even if Fox News, Carlson, etc. didn't even exist ? ? Paper and cotton quilting material "masks" with your favorite MLB, NFL, or alma mater, or Disney character to "filter out" a VIRUS ? Then, well no, but two masks, one on top of the other will do it, then shots that will keep you "safe" from infection, then, well, not really, but, they do keep you from giving infection to others, then well, no that's really not true but they do keep you from dying (finally something solid because...it can never be proved, all of us who caught Covid could then say, well we WOULD have died.. and no one can say a word to refute it, convenient, especially for Pfizer and crew.
