Thanks again everyone! Like I thought my kid's head is perfectly fine (Well 5 staples but boys will be boys and no serious side effects ect) What was interesting to me like a few of you had mentioned my wife said the doctor said the ER's are basically dead right now.

Kind of brings up a question about our health care system in general. (I kind of have the same thought about my work using high deductible plans) Maybe some of the outrageous costs and overrun hospitals during normal times are due to people using the ER's/doctor's office for relatively minor problems? I wonder if this is a "positive" side effect in the clearly awful list of terrible things happening right now?

I guess it could also be people not going to the ER that probably should but anecdotally a coworker kid's each seem to be there 2-3 times a year for various ailments. Seems a bit excessive and costly.
