[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 3362971, member: 15643"] To the best of my knowledge every hospital system in the state has lost millions, and that was as a month ago. As NYC was getting hammered, that same system of preparation came to the hospitals in Oklahoma and surrounding states................ cancel anything except ER procedures and OB, conserve and stock as much PPE as possible and wait for the overwhelming surge of covid patients that was to come. Well...........that surge never came, all procedures that made the hospitals money, were and had been suspended. Skeleton staffs remained in the pharmacy, ER, OB, housekeeping, radiology and food services for weeks. Employees were asked to take PPL or furloughed. Those employees that were at high risk and felt like they shouldn't work were allowed to take off, but many aren't being allowed back from what I'm hearing. My wife is a hospital pharmacy director, it's been devastating to the hospital systems in OK. [/QUOTE]
