You are probably looking at a 10 hour wait unless you are really in trouble. Our EMS system is near collapse, experiencing red alerts regularly. I've been waiting well over a year to see an ENT specialist, with no appointment in sight. My assessment is that our healthcare system is at crisis levels, so it depends on your interpretation of the word "coping". |
I won't disagree with this but our system was in trouble before Covid. I'm not sure these things can be directly attributed to the pandemic, things were coming to a head long before that. By coping I meant that Covid is not overwhelming our system like it was threatening to do before.
