I bet a good number of them are members of the Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service. |

Not as well known as they should be, and true heroes, especially in this pandemic. |
Thank god for the HHS health corps - I was begging Trump to do this very thing with DOD medical teams at the height of the first wave but glad to see Biden has implemented an even better solution. |
Alabama, ICUs near full capacity
Mississippi, ICUs near full capacity Georgia/ATL, ICUs near full capacity Florida, ICUs near full capacity Arkansas, ICUs near full capacity Texas, ICUs are trending near full capacity Keep screwing with COVID19 because that virus is loving it. Not blue states anymore. |
There are no more beds in the pediatric hospitals in Mississippi. Large numbers of kids are on ventilators. But they still don’t want to wear masks in schools |
"bUT kIdS DOnT GeT COviD! OpEN tHE sCHOoLS!!!!" I'd say I'm praying for this country but if there is a God, he sure isn't listening to the self-defeating idiots of America anymore. |
I hope the sensible blue voters in those states got vaccinated. After the virus takes it's toll, the survivors could well turn those states blue. |

+1 to the charts PP.
I think it’s unlikely that enough will die that the states will turn blue, but if Republicans keep refusing to get the vax… with delta and no masks, it’s not “if” you get, it’s “when.” And not everyone who gets it is going to get very sick but that’s not a chance I want to take. |
With The Pfizer vaccine under 50% effective now against delta infection it’s becoming more clear that this disease will spread seasonally permanently. People will be vaccinated from time to time but infection will continue and eventually become a normal part of life like the five or six other coronaviruses that have entered circulation over time. Better get used to occasionally getting sick. |
