So we all know California is lying when it says its ICUs are full statewide, right? Just flat lying. The county-level data (and California has BIG counties) show the truth. San Diego says its units are only 82% full, Orange County says all of Southern Cal is running at 89%...pic.twitter.com/VVd3RBjKBq
From @ocregister, newspeak at its finest
"The percentages here have been adjusted by state public health officials to represent the high levels of COVID-19 patients among all ICU patients. More actual beds may be available."https://www.ocregister.com/2020/12/22/coronavirus-2233-new-cases-reported-390-people-in-icus-in-orange-county-on-dec-22/ …

My friend (nurse) mentioned that length of stay in ICU is becoming a factor. E.g. COVID average might be 10 days vs 2 days for seasonal flu. Therefore we are more likely to fill than during a normal flu season. Thoughts from your experience?
It’s all a bunch of BS. All businesses should open up and people need to stop wearing masks. If a business won’t let you in maskless, tell them you’ll start a boycott of their business until they do.
Which is a pretty standard number. They want close to full capacity. Their goal isn’t 0% icu capacity.
Agreed. The problem is the same with Nurses as Teachers...many don't want to attend to covid patients or during covid surges. I knew we were in trouble in April when a head Nurse asked me, "why should we have to put our lives at risk?" I fainted.
Of course they are. People need to wake up. The numbers are a lie.
