Im not sure how europe handled the hospitals during the shutdown. In the US, they basically stopped serving the public aside from COVID-19. I know someone who was scheduled for major heart surgery, which has been postponed indefinitely. He could easily fall into the excess mortality category. Meanwhile, hospitals are furloughing employees due lack of patients everywhere besides the hotspots.

My specific gripe is not with the lockdowns themselves, but with how the hospitals have reacted by essentially abandoning anyone who suffers from other diseasese.
