“Hospitals in six rural California counties — all in remote, northern parts of the state — are now treating more COVID-19 patients than ever, breaking records by exceeding their winter surges.”

How does anyone know if this is even true?

In Florida...we get free Regeneron. We’’re having Regeneron parties at the Citrus Bowl in Orlando. Thanks Gov DeSantis!

I live in Tuolumne County in the Sierras. Our local hospital has 6 ICU beds and currently 21 Covid cases. We have the largest positive per-population case rate in the state. We had four deaths in one day alone last week.

I think about 50% of our population is vaccinated.

I’ve been vaccinated, but am pretty much staying home as much as possible.

If hospitals are requiring mandatory vaccines for staff they will cause a staff shortage, regardless of the type of patients they are receiving.

If by conservative you mean “votes republican” then yes I believe the majority of California counties do.

Just can’t overwhelm the San Francisco and Los Angeles area numbers.

Yes, I think Gov Newsom might be delaying the rationing of water because of the recall.

IMO. California should already be on severe water restrictions. The state is in dire straits, plus the fires, and it may not get future rain for many seasons to come.

Hey if you’re checking on those semi’s from space, can you check on that Chinese hospital that they built in like a week or whatever? Haven’t heard snack about it.
