Two Maryland hospitals declared a healthcare “disaster” on Friday as COVID-19 cases continue to rise at the Old Line State facilities.

The University of Maryland Upper Chesapeake Health system made the “disaster” announcements for the Upper Chesapeake Medical Center in Bel Air and the Harford Memorial Hospital in Havre de Grace, according to The Washington Post.

“Cases.”

Yeah, I keyed into that word too.

It seems that the hospitals (and the State of Maryland) are experiencing a surge in positive COVID tests, much more than a surge in new admissions.

Admissions are rising moderately, but the surge in positive COVID tests is much, much greater. Omicron Standard Operating Procedure.

It is wise to prepare for a surge, but judging by South Africa, the UK and Europe, it should be manageable for the hospitals.

This morning, one of my high school classmates posted a pic of her sons sitting under their Christmas tree, opening their gifts.

I was horrified to see that the boys were wearing face diapers. Face Diapers, at home while opening their gifts. Young boys!!

The aforementioned classmate is a Social Worker who lives in Atlanta. She is a dedicated Branch Covidian Cultist. Several months ago, she posted a pic of the boys receiving their jabs. Disgusting.

Her sons are about eleven to fourteen years old. IMO, that is straight up child abuse.

Insane.

I wonder if there is a new policy.? When I got covid last May, after the positive test results they sent me home and told me to take some advil if needed. I think maybe after a postive test they are sending the individual to ER - in order to up the numbers.

Thanks to EMTALA, people who show up at ERs, for any reason, cannot be turned away.

Depends on how many employees the hospitals have left. All these companies, including hospitals, going into hysterics because they fired their very own employees is the absolute height of absurdity.

I recently checked the local hospital near my house in Colorado. It showed the hospital at 46% percent full and half of the ICU beds empty. The giant Trama 1 hospital a few miles was only reporting about 60% full.

“… Earlier in the month, I predicted that Omicron would be in full bloom in the USA around Christmas. I would say that it now is, with several States/Territories hitting all time highs for new cases.…”
********************************************************************

I’ve tried (and failed miserably) since last summer to add natural immunity to my less broad Moderna immunity. Since I live in Maryland and we’re in the midst of an Omicron wave, perhaps I’ll have more success now. We went to the packed Christmas Eve service last night at our bible believing church (masks were few and far between) and there was much singing of Christmas carols. Surely there must have been a few Omicron viruses unleashed into the air so I’m hoping some of them may have found me. Maybe COVID-19 viruses hate me and avoid me. It’s frustrating. 🤷‍♂️😸

The hospital can’t tell you how many patients are represented by the 458% increase but they can tell you that 76=80 percent are unvaccinated .... they’re lying thru their teeth.

Won’t call him a liar, but will call his data crap ... it’s from the CDC ... the National Inquirer has more accurate data and is more reputable.

Chicago Conservative. I think it is a lie. I’m watching Texas cases and they are barely budging. No deaths so far.
