User ID: 78176490 United States 08/26/2021 12:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hospitals getting overwhelmed. The outer islands have very small hospitals and have to send some patients to Oahu. Kauai, for example, has only 7 ICU beds. But Oahu is seeing the largest spike in cases and their hospitals are filling up too. “If we are peaceful, if we are happy, we can smile and blossom like a flower, and everyone in our family, our entire society, will benefit from our peace.” Thich Nhat Hanh, Being Peace "But ask the animals, and they will teach you, or the birds in the sky, and they will tell you; or speak to the earth, and it will teach you, or let the fish in the sea inform you." - Job 12:7,8 "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro." - Hunter S.

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. |

I was at the urgent care to get my leg checked out for some bad bruising. Me and one other person there. Really quiet. Guy walks in asking for a Covid test and says he has symptoms. Barely any concern. No separation. Just walk right in. Lol. My feeling was that this is fake as fuck. Even the medical people don’t give a shit. Nobody asked if I had symptoms. Nobody asked if I had the jabber. Nobody is concerned at all here. This is all media hype and coercion. Fluxster |

User ID: 78106909 United States 08/26/2021 01:01 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It does seem like more young people are getting it worse than last year. But this raises three possible reasons. Quoting: StayCurious 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. As to number 3 on your list, the Delta variant is the reason. It's 1000 (official) times more contagious than the others. |

It's 1000 (official) times more contagious than the others. Hmm, well that's interesting. My wife and I go out to shop at least once a week here in Cali. It's always busy out here so there's no way to avoid crowds. I would be really surprised if we both have not been exposed to it in 2020. I knew someone recently back in my home states of Kansas, he is 77 or 78, and he got delta last week. He had to go to the hospital for a few days in Wichita. He was unvaxxed, and he recovered. No word on if he had permanent damage, but he did get out and seems okay. |

User ID: 80666111 United States 08/26/2021 01:57 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If we had the healthcare of Japan or Germany we should have 3,000 beds in the county enough to deal with those numbers 50 times over. But like everything the Pacific northwest is woefully unprepared for a catastrophe event. It's something that boggled my mind when I moved here. No air condition, no preparation. No call boxes on the highways. Hell half the bridges were built at the turn of the century and are delalpitated. Honestly it's laughable, I lost power for 24 days during the massive snowstorm 2 years ago. Luckily Im aware of how unprepared they are and have off grid systems to compensate. The only way we had our roads cleared was locals with their tractors. Just because we have a criminally inadequate healthcare and infrastructure system doesn't mean we have a covid problem. We have a Portland problem... |

User ID: 80793298 United States 08/26/2021 04:38 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Honestly , I would not even know of Covid if it wasn't for the news and work emails. But we seem to have over 260ish people that tested positive for Covid at work since it came out last year. We have to wear mask at work and they are pushing the vaccine as hard as they push LGTBQQ b.s..I figure it won't be long before they say the clot shot is mandatory. Then I guess 22 years working here are down the drain ... Banned often |
