Well, this isn’t really data that people really bother to collect with this sort of thing, because there’s too many other variables, but you know when there’s a credible bomb threat in a building, they have to shut that whole building down, evacuate it, and keep it shut down for a good long while as people comb over the entire location really thoroughly looking for the bombs someone claimed to have planted.
Now, I don’t know if you know this, but hospitals kind of need to be open and full of people 24/7 to make sure that people don’t die. That’s why we have hospitals. In particular, children’s hospitals are a thing for, you know, young children, who have either serious serious diseases threatening their lives, or need emergency surgery from people specialized in working with smaller bodies. Having children in such states evacuate a hospital isn’t really practical. Maybe not even possible depending on the state they’re in. And even if you leave them there, and doing so doesn’t actually cause them to die in an explosion from bombs someone lied about, taking all the medical professionals out of the building for like a full day means they can’t do the things those kids need done to remain alive, and even if there were no emergency cases when the threat came in, having the hospital shut down that long means new cases where people are trying to rush someone to the special emergency hospital for stuff for children that’s rare and specialized so we have them spaced out way more than other hospitals are… going to be showing up and told they have to go somewhere else, and you know, frequently with hospitalization, getting there ASAP is literally a life or death thing.
So what I’m saying is, whether or not it turns out to be “a hoax” bomb threats on children’s hospitals absolutely lead to dead children, and should always be discussed with that in mind. Kind of a big deal.
