New York has become the Coronavirus capital of the World. If the United States has the highest number of cases in the World, New York has the most Coronaviru cases in the country. The situation is so bad there and can be understandable from just one hospital there.
The first coronavirus patient arrived at St. John’s hospital in Far Rockaway in March. During the peak, the morgue was averaging 17 to 18 bodies a day. The bodies just pile up and there is no place to cremate and bodies are piling up in huge numbers waiting for their turn to come.
Things are not anything better after these many days and the staff fears a second wave coming very soon. To understand the gravity of the situation, at the peak, the hospital alone is intubating close to 60 patients. A staff nurse at the hospital says this virus potentially wiped out a generation that is on with a lot of comorbidities.
There are around 1.65 Million confirmed cases in the United States and over 96,000 casualties. The worst part is that the light at the end of the tunnel can be seen nowhere.
