Anecdotal report from the field...

I have a nurse friend who has nurse friends in Florida. She claims the reports of their hospitals being overrun are completely false.

I already knew there was nothing going on around here (OH, KY, IN) - but she confirmed that as well.

Ambulances wait outside hospitals as COVID infections spread
COVID-19 cases have filled so many Florida hospital beds that ambulance services and fire departments are straining to respond to emergencies.

In St. Petersburg, some patients wait inside ambulances for up to an hour before hospitals can admit them — a process that usually takes about 15 minutes, Pinellas County Administrator Barry Burton said.

While ambulances sit outside emergency rooms, they are essentially off the grid.

Florida county asks residents to use 911 sparingly as COVID hospitalizations surge
Mark Schollmeyer, the Brevard County fire chief, explained how the surge is creating issues for first responders.

"There is a capacity issue at our local hospitals dealing with this new surge in COVID-19," Schollmeyer told CBS News. "Crowding in the ERs has caused us to hold the wall and wait for our patients to offload before we run the next call."
