Texas reported 4,320 COVID-19-related hospitalizations on Saturday, a high not seen since mid-March, when the state’s numbers began trending downward. The total marks an increase of over 1,000 hospitalizations from the prior week, when the state reported just shy of 3,000.
Last week, the state’s health commissioner noted a 150 percent increase in COVID-19 hospitalizations between June 27 and July 20. Dr. John Hellerstedt, the commissioner of the department of state health services, noted that the delta variant makes up most new cases in Texas. He urged residents who haven’t yet received a COVID-19 vaccine to seek out the shot.

Great, another Freeper with “conservative” in his handle posting leftist COVID fear mongering propaganda.
Where are there no weeping talking heads on television showing us horrific scenes of death, carnage, and despair in hospital emergency rooms and interviewing nurses and doctors too weak to stand?
You don’t see anything like this because they are lying to us.
Why don’t you self quarantine and stop harassing us with this propaganda? .
Why does your link say Fox News but go to NY Post?
Thanks-—and those that previously had Covid?
Got a link(s) for those stats?
Here is the Covid data for Texas if anyone wants to have a detailed look (Data Updated Jul 25, 2021):

I copy and paste the highlight:
In Texas, there were 2,358 newly reported COVID-19 cases and 18 newly reported COVID-19 deaths on Jul 25, 2021
7 day average deaths in most counties (vast majorities) is ZERO
Glad to hear he’s doing well! Do you know if he got monoclonals or just supportive care? Due to FDA bumbling under Biden, most who get hospitalized don’t have access to monoclonals. You have to start them earlier than that. So my guess would be that he just got some fluids and perhaps some other supportive meds to assist with the normal healing response.
“yet they never admit its due to the invasion on the southern border....”
You never hear anything about the invasion and uptick in the virus. The problem is all over the USA since the illegals are being shipped to each state.
Ok - 4,320 is 0.014530624990771% of 29,730,311.
Enough to panic ?
There isn’t a ton of data to go on just yet with Delta, but the data so far does appear to show an increase in the rate of reinfection (i.e. if you had COVID-19 before, you’re more likely to get reinfected with Delta than you were with previous variants), but that rate is relative and still pretty low. Previous variants showed a fairly consistent rate of about 1 in 10,000 people facing reinfection. Not bad at all. Places like the UK, Kentucky, and others have reported increases in reinfection rates with Delta, but rarely try to quantify it yet because that data is difficult to come by (particularly since many wouldn’t even know they had it before if they were asymptomatic).
Best estimates I can find is that risk of reinfection with Delta is 1 in 6,500 to 1 in 7,000 or about ~0.15%. Beyond that, reinfection has almost always presented as a less severe case than the initial infection, so the vast majority of those reinfected would have a significantly reduced risk of severe illness or death.
Long story short, if you’ve had COVID-19 before, it’s possible - but unlikely - you would get infected with Delta, and if you do, it’s unlikely that infection would lead to any serious problems.
How long are they hospitalized? Do they get their hangnails attended to?
Who knows what any of this means with all of the lies being shoved out there.
Illegal Aliens are free as a bird to go where they want and do what they want. They’re given walking around money and their bills are paid by us.
American citizens are locked-down, mandated, bullied, lied to, lied about and robbed.
COVID and Flu combined. The tests can not tell the difference. The Flu disappeared along with the 10s of thousands of normal yearly deaths. These have all be folded into COVID.
And it’s turning out, the vaccines are really not working well, other than killing the healthy (or possibly causing serious long-term problems) that would have survived COVID and built immunity.
FIRE UP THE TIK TOKS!
Not even. The daily death rate for this in the entire US toggles between 100 and 300 depending on the day. Slightly more than people who fall off roofs or down stairs, but slightly less than the number of people who die of Alzheimers every day.
How many tested positive after admission...
When the hospitalized was down to almost nothing….a slight increase would look enormous. That, and the only thing that really matters
Is maxing out beds and ICUs.
Last week my wife’s hospital system (4 hospitals) had fewer than 20 ICU Covid patients. Two of the hospitals ad one each in their ICU. All old. All sick with a bunch of stuff.
Not any worse than the summer without Covid.
Duh I wonder why? Could it be the illegals?????
My sis said that he received IV medication, not sure if it was regeron or something else, just something that requires hospitalization because it needs to be given by IV
Plan A—Humble Texas by filling it with sick illegals. B-show that Red States can be just as sickly as Blue States! Working well. These is no vaccine for stupid.
In the Ninth Level of Hell, Hitler rests on his coal shovel, and shakes his head. “A pandemic that kills the elderly! Why didn’t I think of that!”
