Yeah I kind of just give up with your careless nonsense. Thankful this forum has a block feature

You have zero statistics to back up your poverty suspicions. Instead of posted back dated COVID charts from 3 months ago, explain how we’ve plunged into poverty. So then what’s happening to the hospital systems in Houston, parts of Florida and California are all lies? It’s July. The most cases hospitals see this time of the year are accidents, not viruses.

Hospitals are overwhelmed with 30-50 year olds. The tally hasn’t shown many 85 year olds hospitalized in the last three weeks, much less your speculation if they smoke or are obese.

We weren’t in a depression. deaths trail cases. This has been fact all along.

Texas avail beds down to 11,300. Less than 975 ICU bed available....

What we need is some form of leadership. I fully admit that I'm not a fan of Pritzker and his proposals (especially the tax increases) but he has navigated IL through this pretty well and I'd applaud him for that. The only way out of this is if we work together as a team and make it happen. While some areas are trending down, a lot of other areas are not, making this that much more difficult. I know we all won't agree with what needs to be done and I can't figure out how wearing a mask for 15-20 minutes while in a store is really that bad but what other way would someone propose then? I love the people pitching major fits about wearing a mask but offer no other solutions. It's not hard to follow the science and follow the guidance for the greater good and not just yourself.

Oh man.... FL available ICU beds were at 1,250 earlier in the week, down to 800 now.... Texas available hospital bed were at 12,925 earlier in the week... now at 11,500 yikes

Separately, MD discussion for what looks like a potential STW eastern IA.

LOL.. more like figure 8s at 2mph

I wouldn't have done it, but that is pretty bad ass....

How many times can we go over the 'its just like the flu' discussion?

That just means an average of 470 deaths per day until winter. The 7-day average currently is near 600. I dont know if you mean optimistic like we won't get there or we will, but it sure looks like it's going to happen at the rate that we are going.

Both. 7/7 Available beds: 12,925 Available ICU beds: 1,148 Total bed count: 54,744

Texas statewide numbers remain nearly unchanged in the last week.

As a country, we have been below 1k per day (still ridiculously high) for nearly a month now. Hopefully that does not begin to trend upwards as well.

Separately FL hospitalization rates are going down. Hospitalization at 16,201 and ICU avail at 1,302. interesting. Especially with cars having gone up in the last month. Wish there were more demographics on the daily testing.

Hospital beds today at 13,307 ICU availability 1,203

Texas numbers continuing the bad news 7/1 avail hospital beds: 12,894 7/2 avail hospital beds: 11,983 7/1 avail ICU beds: 1,322 7/2 avail ICU beds: 1,181

Yes, the exponential increase in number of cases does not match the increased rate of testing.

Monday FL ICU availability was at 1,400, yesterday 1,209, today 1,042

I can about reach the net

Wow, in FL the open ICU bed was at 1,411 2 days ago... today at 1,207

I'll stop refreshing then...

Totals for all hospitals, not just covid... Here's the data texas: https://txdshs.maps.arcgis.com/apps/opsdashboard/index.html#/0d8bdf9be927459d9cb11b9eaef6101f florida: https://experience.arcgis.com/experience/7572b118dc3c48d885d1c643c195314e/ As a side note, some of the dashboards that states carry are easy to read and user friendly. The data still sucks to see, but it is well presented.

Interestingly, watching hospital data in both TX and FL, and hospital admission and ICU bed use going down the last 5 days (sometimes by large amounts), despite cases on the rise there for nearly 3 weeks now.
