Opportunities, yes.

Nobody wants to contract this damn thing and nobody thinks it’s a hoax. But the hyperbole is out of hand. |

My suggestion was... and I repeat it:
Use Google (or other online search engine) with search input covid "hospitalizations"

Right now Texas is at 14.4% of available hospital beds for covid. At 15% it’s deemed a “problem”. 85% are still available for non-covid patients.
This virus sucks. Everyone knows it.

Nobody is questioning if it exists or not, or if it makes a relatively few very sick or dead.
The question is are these destructive clown-world antics doing anything to slow or stop it ? There more studies released the more its showing itself a complete sham.
https://www.acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M20-6817
Conclusion:
The recommendation to wear surgical masks to supplement other public health measures did not reduce the SARS-CoV-2 infection rate among wearers by more than 50% in a community with modest infection rates, some degree of social distancing, and uncommon general mask use. The data were compatible with lesser degrees of self-protection.[This message has been edited by MidEngineManiac (edited 11-19-2020).]

Far better off looking at each state's dashboard than reading 'the news'.
It also depends where one is located within each state.
Harris county for instance (Houston metroplex) has more people with covid than any other county. It's also the most populated county in Texas but is also home to the sprawling Texas Medical Center, the largest medical center in the free world. There are approx 19,300 hospital beds total in the Houston Metoplex.
The Texas Medical Center in Houston has about 1000 beds total, with it's facilities set up in 4 phases for pandemics.
TMC has set up 4 phases of 'seriousness' with ICU Phase1 total possible occupancy at 1330. There are now 1278 total Phase1 patients in TMNC facilities with 222 of the Ph1 patients having Covid19.(All causes) occupancy is at 96% full. Covid ICU Phase1 cases are at 17% as of Nov 17.
ICU Phase2 and Phase3 total patients stands at 272 and 504 respectively.
There is a 4% total daily Covid growth rate of patients in TMC, 2.6% Covid ICU growth rate, and medical surgery (non-covid) growth rate over the last 7 days.
the big picture for Houston/Harris County Texas
In Tx, it's not nearly as bad as it was earlier in the year when there was a sudden onslaught of new serious cases. I think that was around July.

Your suggestion was that Hudini is correct.
I think it is time for people to ask if the tests are even accurate? We already know the mass media has mislead us before, is this just another example of hyping the covid scare? Clearly, we don't need to repeat again and again how real the virus is. What isn't being asked is can we trust that a positive test is actually a positive test? Are hospitals actually filling up with covid patients?
Count me as skeptical.

The "fines" hae nothing to do with the virus, as usual they are about forcing blind obedience to an agenda.
