It's shocking that 15% of beds in a huge state like Texas are virus patients.

That is very worrisome...

Texas deaths now starting to increase along with infections.  Will probably be 80+ today.
The point is that this is never mentioned

The average person would think that virus cases are just rushing into the ICU wards and thats not the case

The reason there is a shortage is because of the huge backlog of other illnesses that are just now being addressed

The average person thinks all other maladies have been put on hold?  Tell us more!

actually yes


the media ties the increase in cases to ICU bed availability and the average listener or viewer thinks that virus cases make up most of the ICU usage which is not the case

Longhorn is right on the money of course.  

The media narrative is that Covid cases are exploding so fast that the number of cases is over running the ICU capacity.

it’s called fear mongering.

whats happening is that the other medical procedures were put off and started up again with a large backlog

so when this non virus backlog turns normal again we should be ok

It's amusing that "normal" is another term of "average", in a sense, and most folks want to be normal but few brag about being average.

I dunno. Since so many of the new cases are the stoopid kiddies, it might not be so bad. I know hope is not a plan, but it's all we have still.

The infection rate is getting worse, I am hoping the hospitalization rate is manageable, but it's going to be challenged I think numerically.

Maybe we could put recovering patients in nursing homes ....

I'm convinced this is the week we're going to see the trend in daily deaths turn upward nationally.
