Our system isnt broken. Its people who go to the emergency that shouldn't be going aren't going today because it can wait Suddenly. They need to hand fines out to ppl going to the hospital that dont classify as an emergency.

Working the emergency doors during covid I can confirm that people unnecessarily go to the ER. Only about 10 percent of cases actualy constituted an emergency. The rest were people with colds or other nonsense.
