+141 hospitalizations = not so great as they could potentially end up being on ventilators. However, only +17 on ventilators is a huge positive. These are the only two numbers that matter as far as staving off the overloading of the health care system. Deaths are tragic, but they will follow the hospitalization/ventilator numbers.

You subtract the dead, subtract those that recovered, and then you have to add the new ones overnight, which is enough to offset all the dead and recovered, and still result in a net +17. It isn't terrible, but it isn't as good as it may seem at first glance.
