Do you really have to wonder?

FWIW, this is the last time they reported daily hospitalizations and discharges.



"The health district will only be reporting total hospital bed and ICU bed occupancy in Brazos County, which they say are monitored by local health officials and are an important indicator of COVID-19 in the community."

I can't figure out how total hospital bed occupancy is an indicator of COVID-19. It isn't COVID occupancy, but total occupancy. Ramp up elective surgeries or have a massive car accident and those numbers could increase and it would have nothing to do with COVID.

While I agree that the risk for college aged and under students is overblown and sensationalized, I'm not sure his hospitalization numbers are accurate. When I go to the dashboards he sites, all show various statistics on testing and cases but very few specially report hospitalizations. It looks like the author of the tweet assumes the absence of specially reporting hospitalizations means there are zero.

I was discussing the Bama data with a Bama grad yesterday and he pointed me towards the local hospital reporting. This is only a small subset of the testing performed and won't fully align with the University's testing, but it would include all hospitalizations in the area. Their data shows 3.2% of cases for 18-25 year olds required inpatient care (which works out to 20 people based on the hospital's case numbers).

"The health district will only be reporting total hospital bed and ICU bed occupancy in Brazos County, which they say are monitored by local health officials and are an important indicator of COVID-19 in the community."

That is flat out misleading, so covid hospitalizations are dropping fast so now we will assign any hospitalizations to covid whether they are or not?

WTH...

They have to keep pushing that coronadoom. The Brazos County Heath District has been hideous from day 1 in how they report information, and they keep getting worse by the day. Sadly, our local media goes along with the coronadoom and not one reporter will dare question the official narrative.

Same for the coronabros here claiming that they know numerous students who are on the verge of ICU, being put on a ventilator, or have suffered crippling organ damage which will eventually kill them.

Gotta keep the fear going, somehow, anyhow, until November 4th

Missouri governor said his state has over 7000 cases in colleges and 0 hospitalizations as well.

Could this be a mutation that is less deadly, but will leave those who recover with immunity to the more deadly form?

If 11000 college students had the flu I can guarantee some would be hospitalized, probably even a few hundred, yet no Covid hospitalizations for college kids.. yet the MSM keeps trying to drive FEAR into the students .. with this kind of data coming out I bet they really don't give a shat about this Covid stuff any more ...

Yet the Big 10 and Pac 12 don't want to play football ... political all the way!

I posted in the B1G/Trump thread that the report the B1G relied upon (saying athletes with covid suffered myocarditis) was incorrect. The law suit Nebraska players filed against the B1G specifically wanted those medical reports but the B1G refused to give it to them. So they had to know it was faulty information.

The backlash on this hoax is gonna be beautiful.

I know plenty of lefties that won't ever acknowledge. But the rest of the thinking world is waking up.

Can we all get on with life now or do we still need a vaccine + two more weeks?

But one of those kids may have gotten memaw sick and she's in the hospital. Need to switch to all virtual

---

Stay at school and away from memaw.

Friend of mine's niece tested positive at college (Whole sorority apparently), the dad went and picked up his little angel, now the whole family has it. Amazing the amount of bad decisions.

---

There was no decision to second guess, cause that's what families do.

That's interesting. I wonder why the shift in reporting. This is the most positive news I took away from that article:

Quote:

---

4,218 patients are classified as recovered, which means they have been fever-free for 72 hours without fever-reducing medications, and it has been 10 days after onset of symptoms.

94 percent of the new confirmed cases is from the 18-24 year old age group.

---

Most everybody recovering and none of those 94% will die. RIP to the gentleman in his 80's that passed away.

---

I think it's because it's not alarming anymore and showing hospitalizations don't really scare anyone anymore

Not smart

SEC...SEC...SEC!!!

Only CNN is hung up on cases

We've moved on to hospitalizations, deaths, and after affects.
