How’s Hawaiian hanging in there right now? Are there plans to furlough?

And you seriously believe there are 7 beds in Hawaii. Wow.

A total of 22 deaths in the state. This virus isn't going away. Is the governor going to keep this going forever?

Hard to imagine how this will play out.

Was told by the guy who lives there and has family in the business, maybe he's a lying? How many are there?

NM, I used google. More then 7 but not enough, maybe it was 6-7 empty or avail? Anyway some of them are in tent huts, so there's that.

"Hospital capacity is close to maximum even under normal circumstances,” he said.

Hawaii hospitals are already largely occupied, according to the most recent report from the Hawaii State Health Planning & Development Agency in 2018, which shows most facilities run at 60% to 67% occupancy, including critical care beds, skilled nursing beds, and beds that “swing” between acute and skilled nursing facility needs.

If COVID-19 patients do fill hospitals, Raethel said Hawaii Healthcare Emergency Management can stand up temporary units of 10 to 20 beds, for a total statewide capacity of 150 beds for non-COVID patients.

“These spaces would allow the hospital to treat those with less acute ailments, thus freeing up other spaces within the hospital for treating those with more serious illnesses,” HAH President and CEO Hilton Raethel said in a statement distributed to the press on Tuesday.

“All of the hospitals are taking important steps to ensure that services and capacity are available, and not just for those who are ill with COVID-19, but for everyone who needs acute care,” he added.

To some, the outlook looks especially bleak for neighbor islands. Kauai has nine ICU beds, Maui has 29, and Hawaii Island has 24. Regular hospital bed inventory is larger, with Kauai having 111, Maui 242, and the Big Island 242 state-licensed beds."

You cite an article almost four months old. That was the scary time when the media pushed the tons of deaths agenda.. Fast forward to today, 22 deaths, most elderly with preexisting conditions. The recent report on the Star Advertiser show 23 hospitalized patients.

With family in the medical field, they have had hours cut because they isn't any patients.
