There are even now reports of more Hospitals such as
Bellevue Hospital Centre being evacuated within New York, which were previously using backup generators, which would suggest a lack of fuel which is unable to make its way into the city, although the news report is suggesting ongoing flooding where the generators are located in the hospital basement.
Bingo. Every hurricane I can remember there have been hospitals that had generators in the basement, and every time everyone clucks at how dumb that was, and with the next hurricane it happens again. The operating license system may have to be changed to stop this.
I don't want to yet compare this to a Katrina New Orleans type situation
It's not anywhere close to that.
Not to mention, where are they going to find beds for all those patients?
