Texas Medical Center in Houston - largest medical center in the world - ICU beds were 97% full on Thursday, and last night I heard directly from a physician who works in the medical center that the ICU beds were all full. They have surge capacity for COVID that they can tap, but to fill all the ICU beds is a big deal. I've heard the ICU situation is similar where I live now. Not a good time to catch a serious case of COVID or have any other need for an ICU bed in several states.
How about a little truth, hope you're not allergic:
Of total ICU beds at TMC Houston:
72% are non-Covid patients.
28% are patients with Covid.
Notice, they didn't report that the 28% were hospitalized from bolognavirus, only that they are "with Covid".
