I’m taking nothing that you’ve said or will say seriously.Patients with COVID are being sent to hospitals hundreds of miles from home because there are no ICU beds available nearby.
I’m taking nothing that you’ve said or will say seriously.Patients with COVID are being sent to hospitals hundreds of miles from home because there are no ICU beds available nearby.
As someone who has family members that are physicians in cities like Austin, Houston, Charlotte and San Diego-- as someone who has dated a few nurses in the past-- as someone who dated a woman that now is an officer at the 2nd largest Healthcare system in California, and as someone who's best friend is married to one of the heads at Dell hospital in Austin- I can tell you definitively that these people, in these cities, have not expressed this to me.Patients with COVID are being sent to hospitals hundreds of miles from home because there are no ICU beds available nearby.
I can tell you as somebody whose wife is a nurse and sister is a nurse practitioner that this is the most bogus thing I have heard in 2 years. And that says a lot with all the misinformation that has been floating around. A good friend of mine has covid pneumonia and is currently on a ventilator. He had no issues getting a bed.Patients with COVID are being sent to hospitals hundreds of miles from home because there are no ICU beds available nearby.
I would like to see the link to where ever that is. I call bullshit on that.Patients with COVID are being sent to hospitals hundreds of miles from home because there are no ICU beds available nearby.
So your solution to the common annual influenza is to mask up and social distance? Everyone? Since the flu has been around in this country those with symptoms are encouraged to stay home from school or work. Go to the doctor and take whatever medications are prescribed. Take the annual flu shot. And, as a country, we've been just fine. Flu hasn't changed the identity or psyche of this country. This country doesn't cower in fear over the flu.Masks and social distancing work. Just look at the plummet in flu last year. It was about 5% of the average level.

Pretty much why I rarely bother with this thread’s rampant misinformation. Cultural civil warriors aren’t interested in the real facts.I’m taking nothing that you’ve said or will say seriously.
It is rural American cities that are running out of ICU beds not major cities.As someone who has family members that are physicians in cities like Austin, Houston, Charlotte and San Diego-- as someone who has dated a few nurses in the past-- as someone who dated a woman that now is an officer at the 2nd largest Healthcare system in California, and as someone who's best friend is married to one of the heads at Dell hospital in Austin- I can tell you definitively that these people, in these cities, have not expressed this to me.
Now- does that mean that somewhere in America it hasn't happened? No. But I'd truly appreciate it if you had concrete proof of what you said and citations to prove it.
so you are citing data from 2018 and 2019 and claim it projects on to what beds are currently available?....am I missing something? One of us is guilty of very shoddy research.It is rural American cities that are running out of ICU beds not major cities.
Quite the slippery slope/straw man to make from pointing out that masks and distancing actually do work. Impressive.So your solution to the common annual influenza is to mask up and social distance? Everyone? Since the flu has been around in this country those with symptoms are encouraged to stay home from school or work. Go to the doctor and take whatever medications are prescribed. Take the annual flu shot. And, as a country, we've been just fine. Flu hasn't changed the identity or psyche of this country. This country doesn't cower in fear over the flu.
Rather, for some unknown reason, you'd like to see everyone on the streets with a mask socially distancing? Strip society's facial identity. Not see anyone smile, frown, laugh, scowl? Have children grow up thinking that it's normal to not see anyone's emotions?
I'm not sure if you've been to China or other any other country that has recently come out of a communist/dictatorial regime. People walk the streets in submission. Devoid of emotion. No identity. Soulless. Afraid. And, yes, in certain countries, masking up is common and a part of the country's cultural identify.
You're a good soldier for the American Communist. I can suggest other communist/dictatorial countries for you if your aim is to have masks become a part of the US' cultural identity.
You need to go look at it some more as it goes up to the last few days. We reached 100% ICU capacity in some places last week.so you are citing data from 2018 and 2019 and claim it projects on to what beds are currently available?....am I missing something? One of us is guilty of very shoddy research.
Which is why I don’t take anything you say seriously, there’s 43 pages of documented facts that you either haven’t read or totally ignore. We’ve provided them. As the days, months, and years go by we are proving to be right all along. (recent study by Johns Hopkins) It’s your choice to go be part of the great scientific research that’s called mRNA vaccine. And when you start feeling scared again, go get your boosters 1, 2, 3….4 or however many they tell you to. Im going let my body do what it was designed to do because I’m not at risk. Neither are my children. Go run back to your other little lemmings, maybe you can all go and get your boosters together.Pretty much why I rarely bother with this thread’s rampant misinformation. Cultural civil warriors aren’t interested in the real facts.
The reason some hospitals are at capacity is not because of the lack of beds. It’s because of a lack of staff. Bidens vax mandates for healthcare workers has forced many nurses and hospital staff out of their jobs.You need to go look at it some more as it goes up to the last few days. We reached 100% ICU capacity in some places last week.
Maybe this one is easier for you.

First....It is rural American cities that are running out of ICU beds not major cities.
Can’t get into a healthcare dyck measuring contest without getting doxxed. Speaking of which has it occurred to you you making your political stance around this so obvious that those contacts aren’t giving you the whole story and are just placating you to enjoy visiting with you instead of getting into a political fight with you? Many decided it was best to shut up about it when protesters started going after healthcare officials and their families at the homes.

If you’re interested in doing further research on the real reason the Covid (scam) continues to hang around…It won’t stop until 90% have the vaxx or caught COVID. That’s the herd immune threshold. I’ll agree we aren’t getting there anytime soon thanks to the antivaxx.
Confirmation basis is going to be a huge headwind going into year three of this. Those that haven’t vaxxed and haven’t had COVID are convinced in their decision. The vaxxed, masked, distanced that haven’t caught COVID are convinced what they are doing is why they haven’t caught it and will continue the same behavior.
Masks and social distancing work. Just look at the plummet in flu last year. It was about 5% of the average level.
The Vaxx with boost works quite well as the unvaxxed are dying from COVID at a ratio of 97-1 to the vaxxed and boosted.
The misclassification is a made up conspiracy thing. There are heavy government fiscal penalties for intentional misclassification. There is a lot of data analytics used in healthcare compliance and audit to catch outliers and self report due to the damage penalties for the government finding it. Plus, insurance requires a lot of proof of diagnosis to pay out and run their own data analytics for outliers.
So much science in that picture.If you’re interested in doing further research on the real reason the Covid (scam) continues to hang around…
Stacey Abrams Says She Doesn’t Have To Wear A Mask Because She’s A Governor
ATLANTA, GA—Beloved Georgia politician Stacey Abrams was viciously pounced upon by conservative critics after being photographed maskless while she was surrounded by dozens of masked schoolchildren. But the haters quickly walked back their criticisms of the political firebrand after Abrams...babylonbee.com
Actually… next time you do your weekly face peel or you’re waxing your chest, take a look at the face staring back at you in the mirror… SURPRISE! It’s you, dipstick!

Great find. The Covid conspiracy theorists won't like those stats. Funny how even the most staunch blue states who pushed the masks mandates on everyone and tried to criminalize people who didn't comply are now backing off of those mandates. Masks don't stop the spread of Covid.The ICU bed thing has always been a red herring. Here in the Houston area, there is a very good website that shows not just the ICU bed usage, but how much is being used by Covid patients. That is the key stat.
SE Texas Advisory Council
It is a group of hospitals in 25 SE TX counties that monitors medical issues. If you look at the chart you can set the time range to start in March 2020. There have been 2 major spikes that have caused ICU beds used for Covid to spike to 50%. (July 2020 and late august 2021/early sept 2021) The rest of the time it is much lower and below 20%. Yet the ICU bed usage is always hovering around 90%. If you drill down you can see a county like Brazoria only has 40 ICU beds. Yet the bulk of their population is in the northern qtr of the county. (Friendswood/Pearland suburbs) Most of those people probably would use the largest Medical Center in the World. The Texas Medical Center is 20 minutes away (as the crow flies) in Harris County.
What clued me into all this is was watching a local news interview in June of 2020 with one of the head Doctors at the Texas Medical Center. He said they always try to keep the ICUs above 80% full. (read profit center) He also said that in the summer --they try to reach 90% capacity because people have time off for surgeries. It made a lot of sense. All the hyperventilating about ICU beds is BS. The issue is what percent of the ICU beds are being used for covid patients.
Again--- people have dug their heels in on both sides so deeply, that as the facts start shaking out, nobody is willing to give an inch.Great find.

Not only that but they realize people have had enough of the gross over reaction money grab, dictatorship and realize midterms are right around the corner. Yesterday as I’m the office the fedex guy pulls up, super nice guy but he had to fumble around and grab a mask and put it on before he could hand me an envelope and verify my name. Good grief when does the hoax endGreat find. The Covid conspiracy theorists won't like those stats.

This is what is wrong with politics. They will NEVER admit they were wrong, ever. However, maybe one day they will acknowledge “new data”.Again--- people have dug their heels in on both sides so deeply, that as the facts start shaking out, nobody is willing to give an inch.
If you look at the people that followed the CDC, Fauci, the press, the government-- they've been proven wrong about 75% of the time. Conversely, the opposing side has been wrong about 15-20% of the time. There were things that both sides agreed on-- but those things that were once sworn to be conspiracy theories-- are now being proven true. And it's hard for people who have dug their heels in to admit that they were dead fvcking wrong. And until that happens, until politicians, doctors and drug companies admit that they were completely fvcking wrong on multiple occasions, we won't be able to get past this.
Th sky is green. If you say blue, you’re an alt right extremist, a racist or a white supremacist.
