If there are +38 deaths, shouldn't the number of hospitalizations start at-38 for that day, then +/- new hospitalizations? I've wondered this every time I see updated numbers.
Not necessarily. Every person that dies with COVID may not have been in the hospital. Also the hospital logs are supposedly updated/reported every day.
The deaths can take over a week before being reported as an actual death (has to be classified as a COVID death w State/coroner before counted as a COVID death on the site).
