Over 330 Kids With COVID Now Being Admitted Per Day to Hospitals as Omicron Sweeps U.S.
Newsweek ^ | 30 December 2021 | LORA KORPAR

Posted on 01/01/2022 1:52:21 AM PST by blueplum

Though child COVID-19 hospitalizations remain much lower than adult levels, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) data showed that the number of children hospitalized for the virus increased last week by 58 percent over the previous week.

The CDC said that between December 21 and December 27, an average of 334 children under the age of 17 had to be admitted to hospitals each day. This is the highest peak since September.

During the same December period, about 9,400 people of all ages were hospitalized with the virus per day, meaning that despite the increase in kids' hospitalizations, children still made up less than 4 percent ...

Based on what?

A PCR test that can’t distinguish between Covid and the flu?

Also, “with Covid” is not “from Covid”.

That’s 6 kids in each state who go to the hospital come up with a positive PCR test.

I’m gonna guess that a LOT of them have the Flu instead of the bug...remember - the prime test cannot tell the difference...and they’re still telling us it’s a good test despite the FDA doing a Class I recall back in June.

Name one vaccine ever invented that prevents all symptoms every time if given to 9 billion people of different ethnicities and ages at the same time with differing innate immunity levels.

That is a lousy excuse for the failure rate of the Covid vaxxes.

I doubt there are many people who don’t know that true vaccines do not confer 100% guaranteed immunity.

But to pretend that the massive failure rate of the Covid vaxxes, along with their horrible side effects, is anywhere near what traditional vaccines is is flat out deception. It’s simply damage control to cover for its abysmal failure rate.

We can see through that kind of dishonesty and nobody on this forum is stupid enough to believe it.

I search thrift stores for used DVDs and CDs.

For all I’ve been ribbed for being old fashioned because everything can be streamed, I like the hard copy.

I can watch it whenever I like and it isn’t going to be edited/adulterated by the PC crowd, if it hasn’t been outright censored out of existence by big tech.

Fahrenheit 451, here we come.

The icd10 code for covid is U07.1. It is specific to covid-19 and not lumped in with other respiratory conditions which have to be listed separately. The extra reimbursement for treatments is given whether it is the primary or a secondary diagnosis.

Omicron is mild, and this is all fear-mongering and lies. WITH covid is not FROM covid. This variant has blown through my family and through my husband’s work and it is only slightly worse than a cold. I have a friend who works in the local hospital and she says they are rarely seeing anyone coming in with covid now, just a few folks with flu.

Either you are paid to scare-monger or you are very bought into the fear. Either way, you probably should step away from all this and get some perspective.

This is timely, considering the fact that the CDC has admitted that the tests are flawed and produce false positive results. None of the numbers they are pushing mean a thing.

Don’t know much about hospitals? 4 kids in a room where the nurses mask & maybe gown takes up no additional resources. There are those rooms all the time for staph infections, communicable disease etc.
Those “COVID +)kids are there for broken legs, accidents etc. Everyone is tested and all positive tests with a test that is known as prone to false positives are cash cows for the hospital. Sir Fauci the false admitted the above in a recent interview.

Fauxi already admitted they go to the hospital for other things like a broken leg. Hospitals are testing every single soul that gets admitted. It’s a way to keep the panic numbers up.

This.

The media is too stupid to realize that after two years (two years!!!) the fear porn is wearing thin. Even with my liberal work associates I’m hearing questions about why boosters, why isn’t anything they’ve dutifully done working. There is definitely covid fatigue setting in.

As I understand it, many tests won’t register COVID-positive for the flu - but they will register COVID-positive for many common colds that have similar markers.

Once upon a time, there were a few types of businesses that we all knew were untrustworthy. Used car salesmen, roofing contractors, the Earl Scheib paint & body shop etc.

Earl Scheib paint. There’s a blast from the past. “We’ll paint any car for $99.95!” Don’t worry about the overspray on the window glass, inside the trunk, or your now metallic green Labrador retriever if he was accidentally left in the vehicle when you dropped it off. There’s no extra charge!
