RRR — the baseline for ICUs is 75% capacity more or less.
So those numbers indicate that Covid has used up basically all available capacity. If the cases are still climbing that is not good.
If you say so. Who knew Houston was such a small town. only 1300 ICU beds in all of Houston.
And, is this the case at ALL area hospitals, or just this one, TMC, chain ? ICU at ninety seven percent. Any other factors for this hospital, in particular? Is this where local prisoners go, who need care beyond the prison med wards capabilities? Or, perhaps an accident, major, happened nearby.
Or, maybe, next to a golf course, this ONE ninety seven percenter hospital. Wait for it.......old folks, walking around, NO carts, with masks on. Most USED caddies, so don't own, or think to own, a bag dolly. And the starter house is all out.....so, you walk it. Old man golfer didn't even know his cart bag had a strap. A video of one of the folks in the ICU, old man golfer saying, " Heck, Texas has had golf closed for how long, great to get away from the wife and kids. Ah.....golf. What's that sonny. Keep the MASK on. Ok, ok...."yes, 97 minutes later, the old folk, carrying his own bag, because NO caddies, because it's a fact, social distortion works NOT, ...and the old golfer gets heat exhaustion. Or heat stroke. forget which is worse. To top it all off, old man golfer was SO excited to be playing golf, finally, he forgot to take his AM big pharma pills. So sad. on his way to the 97 percenter hospital, old man golfer uttered "I was on my way to scoring a 97, for the front nine" ha ha, always a joker.
(whats' with this crowd and that number? Just a coinky doinky that the climate global change crowds ALSO uses ninety seven. Some university got a 40 million dollar grant to study what number people are likely to believe, the most. ninety nine seems to high, to sure. ninety eight, most have flashbacks to "darn, if I only had done the extra credit work, that's two points, would have been my first one hundred"....and such, so, ninety seven it is tested well. Hopkins was able to get new helmet decals and matching gloves because of that grant. _ for every game. inperpetuity awesomer
