[QUOTE=mtpockets;1644011713]Thousands of COVID-19 positive patients, nearly all of them unvaccinated, are streaming into hospitals in need of care.

A jarring reality check is taking place in intensive care units across the country as thousands of COVID-19 positive patients, nearly all of them unvaccinated, are streaming into hospitals in need of care.
This is particularly true in Florida, where virus-related hospitalizations have skyrocketed in recent weeks. The situation has escalated rapidly, now nearing peak levels, with nearly 7,900 patients hospitalized with the virus across the state, up by more than 320% in the last month, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
"It feels like it's an impending storm ... there's no off ramp to this getting worse," Dr. David Wein, an emergency room physician at Tampa General Hospital in Florida, told ABC News on Wednesday
On Tuesday this week, more than 1,450 patients with COVID-19 were admitted to hospitals across the state, marking the highest number of patients seeking care within a 24-hour period in Florida since the onset of the pandemic.
"Right now, at Tampa General Hospital, we are really feeling the crush of this increase incidence of COVID-19, and so the delta area has really brought many patients to our emergency room, requiring treatment and admission," Peggy Dugan, the executive vice president and chief medical officer at the hospital, told ABC News in an exclusive interview.[/QUOTE]
Let's see, states, where most people are unvaxed, are in the hospital and states where most people are vaxed are in the hospital.
It's called selective reporting. The truth is you are no better off by being vaccinated.
