They were already scarce. That’s absolutely nothing new.

Why were pediatric beds scarce?

I’ll let you read about that instead of answering.

Yep I am reading about it. Pediatric beds are more scarce now then they were during covid. Happy to provide you some links because you seem either misguided or coldly nonchalant.

If the covid pandemic taught me anything is that there is much more casual psychopathy in the population than has ever been measured.

Yup covid has taught me no one gives a shit about the elderly and immunocompromised. Thought it would be different for CHILDREN though.

"Think of the children" has been a meme for a reason. It gets trotted out all the time but it's only lip service.

Especially democrats who put criminals in nursing homes during the peak pandemic and ran small businesses out of buisness :(

It's not worth it, this is the stupid response to this. The libertarian and republican response is that it's better to just let people die who get sick, instead of solving the problem so people don't have to die from preventable issues.

Right up until they get sick themselves, then they clamor for help.

Oh it's nothing new then? God forbid the news highlights an ongoing issue.

It’s been going on this entire time. I feel really bad that the younger generations are so ignorant about current events.
