Your child is waiting to be placed in an ICU. You hear "you have to wait for a child to die for your child to find a bed." 2021 AMERICA?

You should do a little research before posting your "facts."

"Dozens of Texas hospitals have run out of intensive care unit beds as COVID-19 surges faster than any other time during the pandemic, propelled by the new delta variant."

"At least 53 Texas hospitals have no available ICU capacity, according to numbers reported to the federal government during the week ending Aug. 5. In Austin, five hospitals were at or above 90% of their ICU capacity during the same period, with two reporting no available ICU beds."

"Mississippi officials and hospital executives said that no intensive care beds were available at hospitals in the state early Monday as Mississippi grapples with an escalating COVID-19 surge and low vaccination numbers.

"Further north in Arkansas, the state has just one ICU bed left."  (and that was 3 days ago)

:):):) Thank you.

The site I was using for this info has recently removed the "number of beds available" from their site.  It is still listed in their heading but the info is no longer in the graph.

Individual hospitals have always run out of beds from time to time....before covid. 

News has been reporting no beds for a long time. But as we discussed before....they did not use either of the Navy ships.  So there were beds. 

But yes, media continues to report what they always have....

If every hospital in the country reported they had no ICU beds available, you would find a source to refute that.

Indeed. Children under 12 cannot be vaccinated. So the adults around them have to be but when they aren't the kids suffer for it. Currently it is the kids who ARE DOING THE SUFFERING due to the stupid dumbs...their parents. And so it goes! The kids are the ones who always get it in the neck. Thank you for your reply Nanoose and Happy Sunday to you and yours! :)
