San Francisco Bay Area doctor Edward Abratowski believes that he and his medical colleagues all underestimated the coronavirus.
Business Insider reports Abratowski noted that his hospital is seeing a precipitous drop in patients.
Besides a moratorium on elective surgeries, people are staying away, fearing that a hospital is "not the best place to be" right now.
On a very busy night, his ward may see sixteen patients.
Now, Abratowski says the average is around six.
