So when you hear doctors and nurses say the hospitals right now are far worse than anything they have ever had to deal with, is that media hysteria? Last I checked no recent flu season involved hospitals renting multiple freezer trucks to store bodies. What about the doctors in Italy that are starting to drop like flies, is that usual with the flu? What about entire countries that aren't paying attention to the US media and are still shutting down?

In most hospitals the morgue isn't a warehouse and only has room for somewhere between 3 and 10 bodies.

Yeah, it IS media hysteria, BIG LEAGUE. This is the same media that cried out for Trump to be impeached - people like Lawrence O Donnell and Bill Maher had outright said that they hoped for a massive virus to kill the Trump economy.

As for those other countries, a lot of that has to do with some truly stupid ideas, like mayors of Italian cities publicly saying that people should be going out and hugging local Chinese workers (Italy has a very high proportion of Chinese workers for some reason), as well as the typical efficiency of European socialist hospitals, combined with just letting whoever come in under the banner of "refugees welcome."
