Lawmakers down...

You also have covid patients who are showing no symptoms taking up beds in hospitals. Some have been in there as long as 2 months. Also throw in that there normal full capacity beds have been reduced due to a shortage in nurses. There are more beds available but not enough staff to support them. All of that makes the numbers look worse

Why would someone who was showing no symptoms be taking up a hospital bed? Treatment protocol is to send them home and quarantine.

Everyone will be exposed to the virus.... mask or not... it will run its course.. one of the local Doctors here has had it.... he wore his mask, employees wore their mask and patients wore theirs...he still caught it...

The mask are ******** because majority of the people who are wearing them now are wearing them below the nose on the chin. It is useless.

On a long enough timeline the survival rate for everyone reaches zero.

So, if I shoot someone there's no reason for me to go to jail then. He was gonna die one day anyway. **

Latest stats for hospitalized Covid patients is that 40% were NOT in the hospital for Covid, but for other reasons. Also, last week I believe, it said that 20% of ICU patients were from Covid.

Can we get a breakdown (by reason) why patients have checked into a hospital?

Also, are hospitals jammed due to the fact whole wings may be closed due to layoffs?
