The hospitalization issue appears to be isolated to some parts of Texas, ..


Arizona, and Florida. Those areas should easily be able to send patients to other areas with lower hospitalization rates. Furthermore, we are not intubating patients nearly as often as we were since we have learned that intubating appears to have been a really bad idea, particularly in older patients. The therapeutics that we currently have are also reducing the duration of hospital stays which will help.

The fact that we know more people are getting it and recovering makes me very optimistic as opposed to scared shiRtless due to a rising number of cases.
