It's gotten bad here in Mississippi. Really bad. Texas and Florida maybe getting all the attention, but here in this land mass between New Orleans and Mobile, we are fighting for our very lives.
According to state health officer Dr. Thomas Dobbs, we are seeing roughly 1000 new cases every single day, in a population of less than 3 million. The hospitals are full, and it's getting worse. they will be at capacity within a week or two. Many of them are having to implement their surge protocols. The four hospitals in the Jackson Metro area have one ICU bed available.
ONE.
The nine largest hospitals outside of Jackson have none. Not one single ICU bed is empty, and of the patients in intensive care, 40% are COVID patients. They've converted the ERs into COVID wards, cancelled all elective surgeries, and are having to send patients as far away as Missouri to find an available hospital bed.
There is even talk of converting some of the National Guard armories into field hospitals.
So you'll have to forgive me if I get a little short with those of you who keep insisting it's all fake.
