Bexar County reports 'biggest single day increase' of 436 new cases of COVID-19

[Blake]

"...Using the handful of studies that have calculated infection-fatality rates for seasonal flu, Meyerowitz-Katz determined that somewhere between 1 and 10 people die for every 100,000 that are infected. For COVID-19, that number ranges between 500 and 1,000 deaths per 100,000 infections. By his calculations, the coronavirus is likely to be 50 to 100 times more deadly than the seasonal flu, which supports the Columbia University findings...."

It's sad when someone tries to portray not completely maxing out hospital capacity as a great success.

Such a person has been driven insane by some huge public failure in the near past.

I understand they have 12% open beds and have been plateauing around 10-12% for a week or so. So not over capacity here.

Ok just so you understand that optimal capacity is based on profit and utilization is a management decision that typically runs between 80 and 90 pending what electives are being done.

Hospitals will not go over capacity. If hospitals thought they would be going over capacity due to a health emergency elective would be canceled then you'd see a dip in census.


Stop the gossip
