houston, you're not fucked?
https://justthenews.com/politics-policy/coronavirus/texas-government-counting-every-covid-positive-hospital-case The number of hospitalizations are "being misinterpreted," said Houston Methodist CEO Marc Boom, "and, quite frankly, were concerned that there is a level of alarm in the community that is unwarranted right now." "We do have the capacity to care for many more patients, and have lots of fluidity and ability to manage," Boom said. He pointed out that his hospital one year ago was at 95% ICU capacity, similar to the numbers the hospital is seeing today. "It is completely normal for us to have ICU capacities that run in the 80s and 90s," he said. "That's how all hospitals operate." He noted that around 25% of ICU patients are COVID-19-positive. But the hospital "[has] many levers in our ability to adjust our ICU," he said, claiming that the hospital capacity regularly reported by the media is "base" capacity rather than surge capacity. Texas Children's Hospital CEO Mark Wallace added that his facility has "a lot of capacity." "We have the ability to take care of all of the Houstonians that need a critical care environment, that need to be operated on, or acute care," Wallace said. "There is not a scenario, in my opinion, where the demand for our beds ... would eclipse our capability," he continued. "I cannot imagine that. I just cannot." --- i swear to God most of y'all cats just don't know The Trent you barely know yourself so i guess most of y'all should be offended ... Copied to Clipboard!

You don't want to end up in an ICU on a ventilator though that's fucking horrific.

lol nobody cares when someone says it's an overreaction eh People only want news stories that support their narrative. It's good news I suppose, but those extra levers he's talking about can only last so long with rising numbers. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis ...

People only want news stories that support their narrative. the funny thing about it to me is that depending on what side you're on, you can find official news articles to support how you feel about the whole thing and these are real news articles with real facts and quotes --- i swear to God most of y'all cats just don't know The Trent you barely know yourself so i guess most of y'all should be offended ...

The liberal mainstream media is saying infections & hospitalizations are on the rise. Dont believe it, dont believe the fearmongering.

I've talked to a medical professionals who said it's super slow due to the covid scare, but there are most certainly hotspots as we all seen where people are laying on the floor. I don't want this to be misinterpreted as saying covid fears are overblown right now though. They're in better shape than previously reported, but we're still trending the wrong way. --- You can't go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending. -Misattributed to CS Lewis ...
