Hi there - I'm the cinematographer and editor of this video. I'm in Houston, Texas with our correspondent Sheri Fink, reporting from inside Houston Methodist Hospital. What we are seeing in Texas is eerily reminiscent of the reports that came out of New York City in March. In Houston, we found a hospital bracing for what comes next, as there is no way of knowing when the number of cases will flatten. I'm here to answer questions, if you have any.

@@pjoffrion could be a couple of reasons. After a few months medical staff have found effective treatments for keeping people alive at least in the short term. Younger people are getting infected who do not typically die after getting the virus affecting the overall mortality rating.

Not to take away from the gravity of this video, but that face shield the doctor was wearing is truly excellent. It completely filters out the air he breathes and, at the same time, allows his facial expression to be seen by the patients, which is so important, not only for the people who can't hear well, but to help improve the communication in general. It also looks like it could be easily sanitized at the end of the day. Whoever came up with it, good job!

V E well you’re right because they’re sorting people who died from Covid and people who died with Covid. But think about it, what are the chances that you get tested positive and then as soon as you walk out someone points a gun at your head and shoots it? Yes I guess you could say the deaths are overcounted but we all know China are deliberately lying about their deaths and so is Brazil. A lot of the US states were reporting less deaths to make their response to Covid look good so they can reopen. The vulnerable who also contracted the virus but couldn’t get tested and died at a home would play a role in the death toll. So it’s safe to say that the true death toll is unknown and that the current one is accurate enough to use

Those PAPR respirators are amazing. In fact, we tried to order 60 units for our nursing staff at our hospital but the order was denied as it was over budget for the unit as they're too expensive. With the filter and battery, the PAPR is about $600 per unit. Why do we see doctors with them and not nurses? Well, Doctors are able to purchase them directly through the manufacturer's outside of the hospital ordering system. Unfortunately, the companies that make them will NOT sell them to nurses outside of the hospital, only a doctor or a hospitals source supply can purchase them directly from the manufacturer's.

Every doctor and nurse who worked in this pandemic are my heroes.

Methodist used to have many wealthy Arab patients from the Middle-east. All political ! Weird seeing these women in burqas or some with their faces covered by a contraption that looked like a metal mask. So creepy. You could only see their eyes and barely. Even though they were visiting in the West, their habits did not change. Hijabs are now normal but they only cover the hair.

Let's start with the fact that not everyone in a hospital works in one single department. It is divided up into radiology, cardiology, pulmonology, neurology, icu, er, labor & delivery, pediatrics, etc, etc. In a pandemic situation where people have been recommended to stay home and avoid hospitals as a prime site of viral contagion, anything not directly tied to treating or diagnosing the pandemic virus always slows down. People don't schedule elective surgeries, things that people might come in for, they decide they can handle at home, or put off for a while. So yes, the rest of the hospital slows down. In NY, this actually allowed them to convert several other areas of hospitals into COVID recovery areas. Less staff total does not mean there are less staff in the ER or ICU areas. Please don't be wilfully stupid.

The reality is if they are having respiratory problems and are in the hospital the chance is high that it is corona right now. They may have other things going on too. Like heart issues, or diabetes, or what have you. But that does not mean they are NOT corona patients as well. AIDS isn't what kills you directly. It just wipes out your immune system and pneumonia is the usual culprit. You could end up in the hospital for a broken spine and they discover you have covid-19. This entire argument that they are inflating the numbers because these people have other things too is just a pile of horse manure.
