Sister works at the County hospital of my major metropolitan area and she informed me that the hospitalizations are not much higher than usual. Again, this is in a MAJOR metropolitan county hospital.
The media is simply flat-out LYING.
I believe the answer to your question is “follow the money”.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I suspect hospitals are being paid more for covid patients than non-covid.
It would appear they were admitted for different serious health issues but were then classified as Covid patients after testing positive despite being asymptomatic or only having mild symptoms that in themselves would not require hospitalization.
This doesn’t smell right.
Why would anyone hospitalize a patient that had no symptoms even if they tested positive for covid? They wouldn’t.
Why would anyone allow themselves to be hospitalized if they had no symptoms? They wouldn’t.
Or as dawn leemon would like to know, IF they aren’t vaxxed, why are they being allowed in to the hospital anyway. I was in our local VA last week overnight in ICU and the number of CONvid patients-—zero. I did have one nurse say that the CONvid unit had been re-opened though. Guess I don’t know where that is. And, no bodies stacked up in the back either. We’ve been lied to and misled so much the past 20 months, I ain’t buying their crap anymore. Haven’t actually for about 18 of the 20 months. We started playing music out at local establishments again in mid July 2020 and haven’t stopped since.
And if ICU’s are full, that is a reason for concern. Doesn’t matter why they are full.
Because they were admitted for some other ailment, took the compulsory COVID test, were found to have (or maybe had) COVID, and were categorized as COVID #1, Heart Disease / Kidney Stones / Seizures / Toenail Trimming / etc #2.
Ergo, they went in for some other ailment or disease, took the compulsory COVID test to get admitted, and were found to be positive for COVID.
They are there for something else but had tested positive.

Treat them. Get paid. Great them the Fauci way get paid.
Treat them the Indian way, with $3 worth of medication, don’t get paid.
The medical professionals say it is not uncommon for ICUs to fill up and overflow patients be sent to other hospitals. Every hospital cannot afford to build enough ICU rooms to cover the the high utilization times. Hospitals routinely send patients to other nearby facilities.
“And if ICU’s are full, that is a reason for concern. Doesn’t matter why they are full.”
Nonsense. If they are full because hospitals get money for claiming covid patients, that is a serious reason for concern.
Because they are going in to get hip replacements or the like and everyone is tested for COVID and they got a positive test. They aren't being treated for COVID but they are being carried in the stats as if they are.
You have to understand they types that show up in ERs around this country.
You go to your doctor, test positive, unless you have serious symptoms, it’s - go home, rest, drink fluids, take Tylenol, call back if it gets worse
You show up at an ER you’re admitted and they bill the snot out of your insurance company or the Feds for that covid money.
I had an ER visit to out local Florida county hospital on Aug 18th for possible TIA. 16 beds. Two besides me. I asked where were all the emergencies and doc my neighbor said it is our normal evening. While there for five hours with every test known to man run and all negative fortunately two walkins neither for virus. One lady who could use a diet had BP of over 250. My diagnosis was very low potassium.
