LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas on Monday set a new record for the number of people in the state hospitalized because of COVID-19 as its coronavirus surge continued.

The state reported its COVID-19 hospitalizations rose by 103, its biggest one-day increase, to 1,376. The state's previous record during the pandemic for COVID-19 hospitalizations was in January when it reported 1,371 virus patients in the hospital.

The Department of Health reported that there are only eight intensive care unit beds available in the state. There are 509 COVID-19 patients in ICUs around the state and 286 on ventilators.

Only about 37% of the state's population is fully vaccinated against the virus.

The state's COVID-19 surge has been straining resources at hospitals around the state.

I talked to a man yesterday who told me his family all got the shots and now all have serious Covid. Oops.

Whoever told you the covid vaccines/shots/jabs or ANY OTHER VACCINE prevents infection, lied to you big time!

I had smallpox vaccine at age 6. Got infected by smallpox at age 9. So conclusive proof vaccine did not prevent infection. Because no vaccine builds a airtight glass enclosure around the body. If someone near you is exuding load of virus material, and you are breathing, the virus will enter your respiratory system and depending on size of it, you can get infected. No way vaccine can stop you from inhaling virus material. The virus does NOT ring a bell as it enters the body. The vaccine's job begins AFTER the virus has made it's presence known by beginning replication and destroying lung tissue. Then using the anti-bodies created by the vaccine, body goes to work fighting the virus. You chances are greatly enhanced to defeat the virus before you end up seriously sick. I do not know why so many posters do not understand basics of vaccine functionality.

So, I’m aware and I think most are also aware that being obese is not only unhealthy but is an additional risk with Covid.

I’m not sure why you’re posting this information however.

Are you implying that “Obese” people are expendable?

Mind you, medically speaking, one is considered Obese at 15-20 pounds over weight at around 5’10” tall.

Benjamin Franklin was over weight.

George Washington was overweight, even at 6’1”.

John Adams was a pudgy fellow.

So I’m 8 pounds over my preferred weight……sheeesh I better skip those carbs tonight.

Blaming people for being overweight, I get it. But thinking they if they die of Covid it’s all their fault is just what the Chicoms enjoy.

The Blame belongs to the Chinese for this entire pandemic.
Not fat people.
Not diabetics (heredity is a factor for that also)
Not Cardiac patients.
Not people with High Blood Pressure who come in all sizes.

I’m a Conservative and I believe in Life.
I don’t care what color someone is, or what medical condition they’re living their life with.

The Chinese have killed Americans that could have lived for decades with their treatable diseases.

Chinese are to blame, with help from others.
The rest of your post is simply stuff you made up.

I highly recommend you jab yourself as many times as you want and let’s see how your health is six months through the next five years.

Perhaps this will explain your trusting Faux Fauci:

The “vaccines” are working. They are a cure for Wuhan flu hysteria, not a vaccine for the flu.

Hysteria sufferers who get the vaccine overcome their hysteria and drop their precautions thus get the flu and help reach herd immunity.

Genius level observation. Thanks for sharing!

Me thinks you indulge in too many tin foil theories. It is already 160 days since 2nd shot in my family of 7 people ranging in age from 27-81. Not a single adverse side effect so far, and I actually feel stronger. I guess this daily routine of 25 minutes treadmill plus 10 minutes lifting light weights is a huge boost to my 81 year old body. Video is from April 2021.

I have always said, the best way to acquire herd immunity is to expose yourself to mild load of virus. You can’t do that with shutdowns.

I will concede those with multiple comorbidities do not have the body strength to fight the strange lab created virus from China, and those are the majority of deaths from covid.

But the younger and healthier should be allowed to live normal life.

OVERWHELMING doctors in USA are pro-vaccine. I respect all opinions but to pontificate FUTURE adverse side effects is conjecture at best and attention whoreness at worst.

Nostradamus is long gone from the earth.

Guys like Bill Gates can’t release a Windows update which stays good for more than 60 days. Guys like Fauci have made more wrong predictions than right predictions. Soros is so old, it is a surprise he is still alive. These guys are not capable of “FUTURE” side effects of anything.

So again based on our VAERS and 190 million Americans already jabbed, I can reach only one conclusion, that the covid vaccines are a BIG NOTHING BURGER in terms of adverse side effects. 0.002% adverse effects in recent data? Come on. That is a nothing burger.

And I have no clue if the vaccines are effective or necessary, all I can say is they are a big nothing burger. 1/2 CC of clear fluid is capable of harmingi my well exercised body ? Don’t make me laugh. But then I enjoy laughing.

Agreed.

You can delay herd immunity,
but you can’t escape it.

Have you scheduled your 3rd booster yet? How about your 4th? Put it on your calendar now...

Has anyone actually filmed/taken a look inside of these so called full hospitals?

Remember, they pulled this carp, last year.

What next? Closing hospitals to visitors, again?

Oh, wait....Memorial Houston just did that.

Our (arkansas) hospitals have wings closed off, there is a staff shortage not a bed shortage, not even remotely close.

I'm sure the staffing situation is aided by threatening to fire staff who refuse the jab, right?

OVERWHELMING doctors in USA are pro-vaccine.


OVERWHELMING docs, in the USA, are hospital owned (thanks to 0blama *Care*)....which are Big Pharma owned.....which is CCP owned.

On and on.

Have you had your boosters, yet, e12?

The big cruise day is quickly approaching, right?

I don’t need it. But my stage-4 cancer fighter spouse is planning it. I am fighting covid with this: https://youtu.be/K5By8t_Odro
At age 81 I feel stronger than at age 59 when I retired due to poor health. Just mowed the entire lawn with a push mower today (not self propelled) and then did my daily routine of 35 minutes at the community gym.

And by the way stay tuned for my exercise video on my 100th birthday. This is another conclusion I have reached..(besides that the covid vaccines are a big nothing burger for adverse side effects) that OLD people need NOT get weak and feeble and lose balance. My balance at age 81 feels great, could easily sign up for a ballet class.

In summary that 1/2 CC of clear liquid called covid vaccine is no match for my exercised body. My body chewed it up and urinated it out long ago.

I hope to God you make it to 100. I honestly wish the jab worked, but it's not looking promising based on the Israel situation. Considering most folks in the US got it in April/May/June, we'll start seeing the effectiveness wane in October/November/December -- right at the height of flu season. Gonna be a fun fall.

Thank God pretty much everyone around me has natural immunity at this point.

Yes, the first cruise in September (post covid) is fast approaching. I understand the ship has openings. People are scared of cruises LOL, but not of flying non-stop coast to coast. Go figure. Which is worse? Enclosed in a air tight titanium tube sitting shoulder to shoulder for 5 hours -or- a cruise ship with 16 floors, fresh ocean air everywhere, and no need to sit shoulder to shoulder anywhere. We pick late seating because all those “old” folks are safely in bed. I should talk, burned 81 candles already.
