By artappraiser on Thu, 11/12/2020 - 9:48pm |

This is so DEVASTATING—

29% of hospitalized #COVID19 patients died in 38 Michigan s during hospitalization (24%) or within 60 days of discharge (5%).

An astounding 63% of those in ICUs with #COVID19 died.

15% then rehospitalized within 60 days! https://t.co/4dOBno4u2w pic.twitter.com/tp9CXwdXlb

Kamala:

Too many people are grieving the devastating loss of a loved one due to COVID—many of whom were forced to die alone. It shouldn’t have to be that way. On day one, @JoeBiden and I will act to get this virus under control and save American lives.

"Catastrophic" lack of hospital beds in upper Midwest as coronavirus cases surge https://t.co/Tyx3lahlH2
— The Washington Post (@washingtonpost) November 13, 2020

The situation in our hospitals is very serious. Six weeks ago, we had 200 #coronavirus-related hospitalizations in Nebraska. This week, hospitalizations stand at 860 and they are rapidly rising every day.
— Gov. Pete Ricketts (@GovRicketts) November 12, 2020

So far, we have been able to provide hospital beds, ICU beds, and ventilators to anyone who needs care. If trends continue, Nebraska will reach a point where that’s no longer possible.

Sorry TX, Denver and AZ. Apparently NM and WY are also full. And Alaska is being transported to Seattle. No one wants to accept transfers across state lines because Medicaid is state-specific and private insurance also won’t pay. And docs are NOT getting paid $2K/pt to do this. pic.twitter.com/W7dxyFiAAg

Something extremely bogus is going on. Was tested for covid four times today. Two tests came back negative, two came back positive. Same machine, same test, same nurse. Rapid antigen test from BD.

lots more comments by him on the thread in response to queries from people

by artappraiser on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 1:05am

When Musk posts on twitter I take it seriously because of his long history of brilliant rational comments there. Is it possible the problems were caused by the nurse being a pedophile?

by ocean-kat on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 1:52am

The Thai guy was being a jerk.

Would've been a normal insult if Elon weren't a high profile billionaire.

But no, nothing outside if tech that Elon says is worth banking on.

by PeraclesPlease on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 2:24am

I just used the pedo insult because it's a well known example. When that story broke I read many other angry stupid tweets he made. He's pretty much an ass on twitter.

by ocean-kat on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 2:38am

Even I'm an ass on Twitter (maybe here as well). My luxury of posting anon.
Yes, Elon has the emotional development of a 12-year-old, but is doing great things.
In contrast to so many of our 12-year-old leaders and celebrities who aren't doing great things,
sometimes even evil things.

by PeraclesPlease on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 2:57am

Yes he's going great things. I'm just saying that I don't trust anything he posts on twitter.

by ocean-kat on Fri, 11/13/2020 - 3:29am

Yes PP...

Elon does do great things, but keeping his mouth shut on things outside his realm isn't one of them.

Sure, screw the kids, little whiners. They'll only try occupying their parents couch for 15 more years, when we were out buying real estate at their age. This'll show em. And cut their healthcare while you're at it - they should be out working more, builds character.

There are 67,096 Covid patients hospitalized; 12,796 in ICU; more than 3,600 on ventilators. Healthcare resources are more vulnerable than prior Covid waves because the wide distribution of infection means It’ll be hard to surge resources into hot zones because there are so many. pic.twitter.com/ovkohJCaB4

7) I’m just an epidemiologist who been doing updates a long time, but we often get lost in statistic & forget each body is a person & love one & a life lost. Our doctors & nurses can only do this for so long before they even start to crumble from PTSD. I’m worried for our HCWs.
