The number of new COVID-19 hospitalizations among children is rising in Florida as the state faces a surge in cases due in part to the spread of the highly transmissible delta variant of the coronavirus.

On Tuesday, 46 pediatric patients were admitted to Florida hospitals with confirmed COVID-19 infections, bringing the total number of pediatric coronavirus patients in the state to 135, according to hospital capacity data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Florida is behind only Texas in the current number of children hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19 cases, with the Lone Star State recording a total of 142 as of Tuesday.

How are they confirming it’s Covid if they recalled the tests? Are there other ways to test for it?

Something ran through our local schools and tore us up in the winter/early spring of 2019. No one was coming up positive for the flu, so the docs were calling it Upper Respiratory Infection. It was bad. Both my boys had it.

Cut to spring 2020 and now we have COVID-19. Most of the parents I speak with are pretty darned sure all the kids had COVID-19 in the winter/early spring, so they had natural immunity through the summer and winter of 2020, and spring of 2021.

Now we’re a year plus out and the antibodies aren’t there anymore, so the kids are getting it again. I’m pretty sure my oldest just got over it.

This is like Goebbels and Streicher shouting that the Jews had just burned down another World War One veterans’ home or orphanage.
