The rates you quote are per 100,000 people. So, WV has 16 covid positive hospital admissions per 100,000 people. From this report, 41 states have covid hospital admissions that are deemed to be "low" by the CDC rating and no state has a "high" level of admissions.

Also, as another PP said, the majority of these hospital admissions are likely not due to covid itself, but rather are cases where covid was a contributory factor or cases where patients were found to be incidentally covid positive after being admitted to the hospital for other reasons. [/quote]
