Virus crisis ravages Brazilian Amazon city's health system

In this April 16, 2020 photo, a patient suspected of suffering from COVID-19 disease. leaves the 28 de Agosto hospital after waiting hours for medical attention in Manaus, Amazonas state, Brazil. The man left with the help of his son, after giving up on waiting for medical attention.

Manaus’ health care system, already strained before the coronavirus crisis, is buckling under the current onslaught of coronavirus patients. Ventilators are in critically short supply, doctors bemoan a lack of protective gear, and gravediggers increasingly have their hands full. Bolsonaro has repeatedly referred to COVID-19 as just a “little flu” and called for confining only “high-risk” Brazilians because broader restrictions would cause too much economic damage. On Friday, he replaced his health minister with an oncologist who has made a career on the business side of health care.

An intensive-care doctor in the midst of a 10-day shift earlier this week said he was on his own in the ICU, because three of his colleagues had been infected with the virus. Amazonas’ health secretariat told The Associated Press in an email that it has instructed “rational use” of protective equipment to avoid blowing through supply.

Socialized medicine you don’t say!

Madness GodBlessBrazilianCitizens

Bolsonaro is Trump’s twin brother. They ate both obnoxious. Brazil USA

blackrepublican There will be corpses in the streets.

If you elect a ruler, not a leader, this is the result. Vote smarter next time

When fools become leaders

How can Bolsonaro be so willfully blind? All he has to do is look to the north to see how this will play out. So much needless death everywhere.

God is setting up the human race for something big. This won't go away anywhere until it goes away everywhere. Wealthy, developed nations will have to work hand in hand with poor, underdeveloped nations to solve this. We're all in the same boat, and a hole anywhere will sink it.

Brazil voted for that maniac and now look what happens

...or the USA, for that matter.

We need to get our crap together so we can help these other countries.

Soon to happen in the USA as Trump asks citizens to 'liberate' themselves.

Thus is what happens when we let the internet choose our leaders

Amazon is using thermal cameras for coronavirus temperature checksThe move comes after a number of cases were reported at Amazon facilities such as Washington, California and New York, and a slew of organized walkouts by workers over coronavirus safety. Why? Can't the infected spread the virus asymptomatically? Guess we'll have to shut amazon warehouses down too, right? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Amazon doesn't give a rat's ass about their employees health. The walkouts scare Bezos.
