5:44 pm
numbers there are all sort of different models but be prepar prepared. the hospitals come together to issues like this, being prepared who has what, how we can work together that important in every community. and we're fortunate in cincinnati to have that level of collaboration. but at same time, you know a lot is happening, it is matter of gets the test and et cetera, i think we have done a good job of making point known that we're trying to do is prevent as much as pea possible to stay below l. where the health care system would be overrun, it is putting elective case on hold, to be ready, there are bumps in road and things we can do better in future because of lessons learned. david: no better health system in the world, thank you, congressman. >> you bet. >> appreciate it, coronavirus casecasecases in u.s. on rise, k
