1. Oh those poor folks, this is so enervating--

Poor ole Wuhan built those two hospitals in a week, but this is a good alternative if that’s not going to happen here

Vibes, Washington

2. stories out of China suggest

it wasn't really a "hospital" as much as it was a place for people to go to die.

The didn't put any bathrooms into the hospital.

Again, that is just rumor.

3. I know, it was obvious from the photos, with all the poor people lying up in their cots, lap...

It was a hell of an effort though, eh - and those emergency buildings should have given the current “administration” a LARGE HEADS UP that something horrific was happening but oh well and grrrrrrrr

4. this is WA proactively doing something

under the leadership of Jay Inslee and many other state and local leaders and agencies.

They are actively looking out for folks' best interests (those infected/potentially exposed and the rest of the population)
