SAD: Ljudi će umirati zbog pretrpanih bolnica

Last updated jan 5, 2021

Mnogi pokazatelji sugerišu da će sledeće leto biti radosno i prosperitetno i da će se ljudi ponovo okupljati na otvorenom i u zatvorenom. Ali biće ih manje, jer će umreti desetine hiljada Amerikanaca koji su mogli biti spaseni, piše američki magazin Atlantik.

Mnogo dokaza ukazuje na to da se ostvaruje jedan od najgorih strahova od pandemije – da će bolnice biti preplavljene, što će dovesti do nepotrebnih smrtnih slučajeva. Amerikanci koji danas umiru od kovid-19 preživeli bi da su se razboleli pre mesec dana.
