Covid hospitalizations are up 60% according to the CDC: https://www.cbsnews.com/video/covid-hospitalizations-up-60-as-booster-slated-to-arrive-soon/ [/quote] Yawn [url=https://ibb.co/FDbzyQR][img]https://i.ibb.co/2k7dCzG/IMG-4317.jpg[/img][/url] [/quote] Yes. And the acute covid hospitalization totals are even smaller than what the overall figures show. Covid hospitalizations include those i) with acute covid, ii) conditions related to covid -- i.e. get dehydrated from covid, fall, and break hip, and iii) asymptomatic positives for other unrelated admissions like labor and delivery. The acute covid component is a subset of total covid hospitalizations. Rhode Island breaks out its covid hospitalizations into these three categories. In August, only 1/3 of RI covid hospitalizations were due to acute, symptomatic covid. https://ri-department-of-health-covid-19-data-rihealth.hub.arcgis.com/ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Nq25JKlbQphdBKqZc09mjRKF0HWHO9280p9xCnVvOyY/edit#gid=244885031 [/quote]
