HHS stats:
TX ICU usage is currently 77.9%
TX hospital usage is currently 70.62%
Percentage of inpatient beds with covid is 18.38%
Thus, the percentage of overall capacity that’s covid is 12.98%. So this would seem to be yet another breathlessly predicted crisis that failed to materialize.
Where are those Chicken Littles shrieking about “hospitals being overrun”? Yeah, that’s what I thought.
You might want to listen to the people who actually run the hospitals – and not some panicked, cherry-picked 27 year old doctor who has to walk back his hysterical comments. This is not their first rodeo – but it IS the first one many of you have watched. Keep that in mind.
