@Simon: I know our hospitals will be stretched and there will be issues at some point. I'm in meetings daily discussing these things with immunologists, planners, purchasers, government officials, we've gone over worst case scenarios and it ain't pretty.
We hope it doesn't come to that though and at this point, pretty much all systems should be operating at 'normal'. The epidemic-level events China saw in February hasn't materialized yet, if you're closing services now, what are they doing later?
Our hospital system has sufficient face masks, gloves etc for the entire system, both critical and non-critical care at least 3 months without any re-supply though and the DHS has promised that the most critical things will be able to be supplied from local sources when necessary (although we're not sure their plans are going to materialize in the time necessary). I understand some systems out in the boonies that have minimal funding may not be able to sustain very long, but Toronto is a major city.
I agree about Toronto government bungling it though, we've seen people that were refused entry into the US, take a detour to Canada/Toronto and cross the border there to come to our hospital system to get checked out (from China in particular). Insane, those people should be arrested.
