Great that's also not the point of the article, that heart attacks and strokes aren't being seen at the same rate.

Your point is orthogonal to the point of the article.

Exactly, I am not attempting to contradict the article, I'm just providing another opinion related to ER visits during this time.

But, of the normal ER visits, one would expect to have the same scalar number of emergency (stroke, heart attack) visits to STILL be happening, and we would expect those people to still be going to the ER. These are not "no insurance" people, they're people having an emergency situation.

If we don't see them in the ER, it makes sense that they're staying home on purpose, or not handling symptoms until it's too late (?).

Strokes and heart attacks don’t fall into they category.

Medically, they are different, but the risk factors are very similar, and I can't see why the quarantine would change the ratio of the two.
