Watching the news, one sees constant stories about COVID numbers rising, yet again, now almost two years into this pandemic, with COVID hospitalizations in some states higher than they have ever been except for the spike last December. In my state of Colorado, the test positivity rate is almost 10 percent, with 1 in 48 infected and if the current trend continues, this will be the worst COVID spike the state has seen.
On the surface, that doesn’t make sense, since nearly 80 percent of eligible Coloradans have received at least one vaccine dose, suggesting the vaccines are not working as well as they should or as advertised, or that vaccine immunity is waning, hence the push for booster injections.

Neighboring New Mexico is in the same boat, also instituting “crisis standards of care.” Their case counts have climbed 19 percent over the past two weeks.
ICU beds are in desperately short supply, with fewer than 100 beds currently available in Colorado as reported by the Denver Post. Are we headed to a situation where patients will be treated in hallways or sent away from overcrowded hospitals to fend for themselves?

Exactly.
Let’s see...
75,000 divided by 50 states equals (more or less) 1,500 dead folks.
