I suppose a lot is a relative term. Metro area is 6 million (sorry) people. I would say that <1/1000th of that hospitalized is not a lot. You are right that I can have no idea how many people were hospitalized but not studied. I'd like to know. Anecdotally, the hospitals in North Atlanta metro have been very quiet -- quieter than usual due to most ordinary procedures having been put off.
