What crammed ICUs?
Coronavirus
- Thread starter Clean
- Start date
Staged in your mind by CNN. There are some hospitals at capacity but most patients are isolated in other areas not on vents.
Right, and the ICUs near me are certainly not crammed. Is CNN showing footage of some ICUs in Europe again that the lefties are falling for...again?

The only ICUs that I know that are flooded are at the border. Mexican nationals looking for Covid care are largely responsible for the elevated death counts in Arizona, Texas and California. Horowitz: Texas border counties hospitalization rate is 5 times the national average
Oklahoma has about 1,005 ICU beds. Based on best available data, we estimate that 58% (582) are currently occupied by non-COVID patients. Of the 423 ICU beds remaining, 209 are needed by COVID cases, or 49% of available beds. This suggests there is likely enough capacity to absorb a wave of new COVID infections.

More evidence that the numbers are worthless and are being used to deceive.
The health officials place the cases where they want them in time to build a narrative.
Texas government lacks timely data for 90% of coronavirus cases there

State health orgs doing the same thing with deaths. They place them on days they want to in order to create panic. I read about the possibility of this a week ago. There are ~35,000 CDC excess deaths that can be placed in the timeline whereever health officials want them. Don't be deceived.

Bubba, everything I mentioned above has plenty of examples of each that has show lots of fraud. So even if you were right (which you’re not) it still doesn’t address the need to be deceiving about the virus. Why would they need to do that if it’s really as bad as they claim?
Wow, hospitals can't handle Covid people? Unfreakingbelievavble.
From the Tulsa World yesterday:
Watch Now: Gov. Stitt says Oklahoma won't be a 'mask-shamer' as he touts robust hospital capacity amid COVID-19 surge
Stitt said Oklahoma has 5,000 hospital beds designated for COVID-19 patients, with 487 of them filled as of Thursday. He said 1,000 of those beds are in intensive care units.
He noted that the state’s peak for COVID-19 hospitalizations was 560 people on March 30, with the number dropping to 306 on April 24, when the he launched the state’s reopening.
“We are nowhere close to the capacity at this time. … And when you look at our active cases and you look at our hospitalizations, we would have to go to something like 2,000 positive cases a day for a 14-day period to start approaching those ICU bed capacities,” Stitt said.

Seems non factual actually.

Where did you get this graphic?
So unbelievable that umm...it isn't believable since it isn't happening in the manner the fear-porn peddlers want people to believe.
"Our ICU census changes throughout the day. The report from OSDH was reported this morning, and conditions have changed since that point. We currently have the ability to accommodate patients at every level of care. Daily – evenly hourly – ICU capacity changes are typical for us as a tertiary referral center in Oklahoma. While each bed could be needed at any point, that may change in a number of moments as patients are discharged, transferred to other units for specialty care or otherwise no longer require intensive care.
KFOR has reached out to OSDH for clarification a spokesman said they are looking into the report.
On Friday the OSDH removed the ability for the public to see the detailed ICU report across the state. This means we will not be able to see the available beds in ICU for each hospital reporting to the state.
In other words, "Damn, we got busted! Take those facts off the website!!"
Nah, he'll come back with another "I heard..." post.
Is this in Houston? How do we know what is really happening?

Not only that but many hospitals it’s not about how many beds are available, it’s about how many Patients per nurse. That’s another trick they do to mislead when reporting.
The public health agencies need to show how important they are. $$$
26 facilities in 8 states. One small facility in the Houston suburbs.
Another left wing source of news reporting from New York. Hospitals going on drive by is not that rare. Sometimes it is full capacity, but can also be due to lack of clinical help, maintenance issues etc. some people prefer to be misinformed versus informed.

I’ve been busy working today. Governor stitt’s story doesn’t match facts on the ground. My doctor’s wife said the largest tertiary hospital in Tulsa was on divert when she showed up for work Friday morning. So maybe they’re converting med surg beds for their “count”.
