[QUOTE="rambot, post: 74793353, member: 145797"] Do you ever intubate because of the flu? I have several friends who are nurses and while thye CLEARLY say, "don't panic", they also say that it's time to make some simple lifestyle changes and be conscious and they recognize the people they care for are in danger (3 of them work in oncology though). As I mentioned in another post, they expect UP TO 50-75% infection rate throughout Canada. Let's say the lower number, 50% That is 16,000,000 people who will get it. I don't know if this is a "normal" infection rate but I have a hard time believe 16mil get the flu throughout canada. Of course 16million, that means just the 4% of severe cases that REQUIRE hospital interventions. 640,000. My nurse friend said that moderate cases often require hospital stays too. So if just 1/2 of those require that, it's 1.2 million sick ON TOP of what is already happenning through "routine" care in our health system. That's a big deal up here. I don't know about what American hospital look like in terms of their bed space etc.... [/QUOTE]
