"Apparently, everyone is deciding to "cleanse" right now..." More Americans who don't even have coronavirus are suffering from soaring Covid-19 hospitalizations. Newly released data from the US Department of Health and Human Services show at least 200 hospitals were at full capacity last week. And in one third of all US hospitals, more than 90% of all ICU beds were occupied. Coronavirus patients occupied 46% of all staffed ICU beds -- up from 37% in the first week of November. Doctors say the numbers will keep getting worse, as the predicted post-Thanksgiving surge has led to widespread infections and record-setting hospitalizations and deaths. "Things are really bad," said Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of the Brown University School of Public Health. "What we have seen over the last few weeks is a sharp rise in infections. And what we know -- from the beginning of this pandemic -- is infections are followed by hospitalizations, which are then followed by death." Across the country, more hospitals are running out of health care workers or ICU beds, forcing some doctors to send patients out of state. "The impact is not just on people with Covid. It's an impact on anybody who needs hospital care," Jha said. "The hospitals are running out of beds for everybody. So it's a much broader public health problem than just a Covid problem."
