[QUOTE="Easy_C, post: 1520174, member: 8290"] Even those are significantly inflated. One of my roles involves business side support for a regional healthcare system (Red state and rural, but this system covers a large geographical are of a few farmland counties and the hub towns (20-60k population in those towns). The CEO put out a note to address those numbers that summarized it better than I can: The reported COVID numbers don't accurately reflect reality. While there is an uptick in admissions, the big driver is people either coming in for delayed procedures or being hospitalized for complications resulting from having procedures delayed. When those people are admitted many of them are asymptomatic but test positive when tested during their admission screening. Those patients are then considered "COVID hospitalizations" for statistical purposes. When you have the CEO coming out and saying "The numbers are bunk, and everything isn't a disaster" you know it's bad. [/QUOTE]
