Three in Wichita Falls Tx just south of us.
I have two (heroic) daughters one an RN in Temple TX and the youngest is a respiratory therapist in Austin. She is currently treating Covid patients there and training protocols as she had former experience with Ebola when in the Air Force. I pray for these two daily....

Wifey’s an RN. Works as an ER Nurse in Huntington PA, mostly overnight.
This morning she said last night was their first patient who came in symptomatic. She said from viewing the CAT Scan, the doc thought it might be Covid.
The test takes a couple days to get done, so they’re waiting on the results.
It worries me, as she’s had pneumonia, and her lungs are already scarred from that. She told me if she gets it, it’s probably gonna be fatal for her. I sure as heck don’t want to lose her!

Nephews fiance is a critical care pulmonologist in Nashville. You can not get more front line than that. As of today, she has only 2 patients in intensive care and neither are for covid 19
Some mornings, it just does not feel worth it to chew through the straps!~

Got a friend that works in the largest hospital in Monroe, La. She said they had one patient die from the virus, have 3 more with the virus, and are waiting on the test results for another. Man that died was 38 yrs old. She doesn't work on the floor where they are quarantined, but they are kept up to date on what's happening.

Here’s to empty beds and the folks on the front lines of health care and their families.

Let’s hope it’s a practice run for most of us here in the US!

Cousin is over 13 clinics. 300 people were waiting with "symptoms". Cleared out all but 30. He's busier than hell.

Two nieces are nurses - one more general care (rural Michigan), but the youngest is pediatric emergency & flight nurse (Des Moines, Iowa). She has posted about shortages in protective gear already, and they don't have many cases yet.
