[quote:StayCurious:MV80ODg5MzU3Xzg5MzAyODIzXzNFRjU0QjRB] It does seem like more young people are getting it worse than last year. But this raises three possible reasons. 1. Those people did not get it in 2020 are getting it for the first time in 2021. 2. The newer mutations are more vicious against the younger, healthier people. 3. We have high vaccination rate, which could be causing the more aggressive mutations and spreading. It's very odd to have this many cases in August, and I suspect the vaccine is the reason. [/quote]

I live in Eugene, OR and I’m seeing in the news our hospitals are at capacity like this - [

My neighbor works on one of the Covid floors in this hospital. She used to think this was BS too, because when we last locked down, she said they only had 3 Covid patients. Now they have 36 on ventilators and quite a few more going to need them soon. She says she’s been seeing more people in their mid 20’s- early 40’s coming in and says it’s mostly unvaccinated people. I’m not shilling for the vax, I haven’t taken it myself. But I’m curious what is it like in the rest of the country? What is the vaxxed vs unvaxxed ratio like in your hospitals? Are they at capacity too?
