I know this to be true also. To such an extent that some hospitals are canceling RN’s shifts.

I don't know about overall cases but total dead is darned close for each state. LA's hospitalized and ventilator use is almost to the point

My definition for "great many places" and yours must not be the same...or link me to the site you get this information. I'm not seeing it in that many places.

Even New York's hospitalization numbers stabilized somewhat about a week ago and have shown decreases for the last few days.

Wrong. Damned peons all ADD and Shiite. Lookie, a squirrel. Companies everywhere excited about all the new plants to be built bringing manufacturing back from China.

Y'all don't fricken realize how Clinton/Newtron actually paid companies to shutdown and call themselves mothballed for 5 years, before demolishing, while the moved that manufacturing elsewhere. Then can ACA (Obamacare) with its tax forcing medical device manufacturers to move overseas.

Then why are nurses hours being cut and nursing floors are not even close to being full of patients? That’s as of today in at least one large hospital in Jackson, MS. Where’s this massive rush to the hospital doors?

Erm...it’s not happening.

Sum ting wong.

Because LongwayfromLA is in the New York area...he seems to think this is going on across the country rather than in regional spots.

This website houses a wealth of state-level tracking data including historical information, captured daily about COVID hospitalizations by state. I'd wager that 3 out 4 states have had their case triple in the last 8 days. You can spot check for yourself. NY, LA, AL, FL, PA, OH, NC, MS, MA, CO, CA, have all had over 300% increases in COVID hospitalizations over the last couple of weeks. Some well over 300% Which places are you not seeing this steep increase in hospitalizations?.

In NY, hospitalizations from COVID-19 have gone up by about 800% since the 24th. In the last 3 days, it's been a new 3K people every day who will hang around for 10 days in hospitals that are already full.

I was being kind to him when I said not even close to being full. Half full or less is probably more accurate. And the ER is damn near a ghost town compared to pre Covid. Nobody wants to go to a fricking ER right now unless they absolutely have to go to one. So now the ER is really doing ER shite all of the time. No more drug seekers and hypochondriacs. Just folks that would rather be anywhere else. Like it was built for.

But this massive influx of Covid? Nope. Mostly those are secondary findings and not the primary complaint. Strange, right?

I think so, too.

I'm aware that NY is several weeks ahead of most places. Systems across the country have had to balance the timing of shutting down elective services to create capacity with accurately predicting when exactly the COVID patients will begin taking over the hospital. It sucks. I will say that every hospital in NY is looking for and paying significant premiums for healthcare providers of all stripes and state licensure is no longer something NY care's about up here. For some that might be an opttion to explore.

No thanks. I’ve been there and worked there. I saw how y’all do things. Never again. frick that. I’ll stay retired and I’ll wring my wife’s neck before I ask her to do that. Your system is more of a disease than any disease.

I don't think so....I think a ton of people have had it and are walking around with either a positive without knowing it, or antibodies when that test finally comes out....this has been with is for awhile.

I was looking at this website for New York City:

LINK

I believe you are giving me a link for the entire state. Are the numbers from the NYC site correct?

I’m doing the things that need to be done right here. They have plenty of people up there to take care of that hot spot. It’s eventually going to get worse here. But it’s not like they’re saying. It’s very manageable. That doesn’t mean that it will remain that way. I know how you feel about the time that you worked up there. I’m needed here. This is where I’ll work.
This has nothing to do with my neck.

As we both are aware, a little light “wringing” can be a good thing.

This is just to let you know that I’m occasionally reading.

I hope you're right, but 1,322 people died today supposedly from CV. That's a lot for one day, and it's still trending upward.

The deaths will continue to increase but most likely be less than half the forecast...THEY WILL STILL INCREASE for a while

What concerns me most though is the forecast demand for hospitasls esp ICU beds is driving people crazy and causing unnecessary shutdown of othe important operations etc at hospitals....those need to be addressed in the Model updates ASAP so medical care, hospital jobs etc can return

Also, once the ridiculous TDS impact on HCQ - the anti malarial drug is removed - all these rates will decline substantially...
