This was happening in Italy over a year ago. Sad we can’t learn from others mistakes/ hardships.

@Stephen Stoufer When you control all of Hollywood, media, education system, literature you control the narrative. You control how people think. People have been brainwashed and mind controlled and conditioned by these frauds who don’t have one ancestor whoever set a big toe in Palestine all of their lives and they don’t even know it.
@Rainbowhawk1993 absolutely ignorant comment. Why don’t you take a look at that wonder blue state of Illinois!!??
@Rainbowhawk1993 you have a point. I live in the united states, not red states and blue states. We need consistent messaging.
@Brian Newman so we have more capacity and still filled up? Definitely didn’t learn a lesson.
Now we get to see what the untreated mortality rate is going to be…
@randal gibbons you know💩, but if you stay home, Wear 3 masks and get the booster you can help
@THEEHayden Rush who cares, stop trying to distract us from bigger issues. Idiots will be idiots, why join in?!
@John Muthan If the studies are false then I guess what your saying is false as well.
@Belly Dancer Em so let me guess when the diseases us spreading qnd is piling up hospitals and has a equivalent if not greater number of fatalities within a fully vaxed population (Israel) it is ok and shouldn’t be taken in consideration , but when this same event occurs upon an unvaxed population then it is the proof of something????
Talking about double standards and scientific reasoning!!!!
@Glas Tron what are you talking about? What studies are false?
Pogo: We have met the enemy and he is us.
When things were at their very worst:
2 Suns, Cross in the sky, 2 comets will collide = don`t be afraid – repent, accept Lord`s Hand of Mercy.
Scientists will say it was a global illusion.
Beaware – Jesus will never walk in flesh again.
After WW3 – rise of the “ man of peace“ from the East = Antichrist – the most powerful, popular, charismatic and influential leader of all time. Many miracles will be attributed to him. He will imitate Jesus in every conceivable way.
Don`t trust „pope“ Francis = the False Prophet
– will seem to rise from the dead
– will unite all Christian Churches and all Religions as one.
One World Religion = the seat of the Antichrist.
Benedict XVI is the last true pope – will be accused of a crime of which he is totally innocent.
“Many events, including ecological upheavals, wars, the schism in My Church on Earth, the dictatorships in each of your nations – bound as one, at its very core – will all take place at the same time.”
“Arab uprising will spark global unrest – Italy will trigger fall out”
The Book of Truth
He is Republicans.
@SR FH looks like covid is handling that problem quite well
@Belly Dancer Em Definitely.
No the enemy are Russian Republicans.
There are people in the world who would die for the vaccine? And here in the United States they are threatening people for taking it, and wearing masks!!!!
@Ermeric Carolissen did you hear about the governor of Texas?
@Micro Farming That’s BS. There were several events with thousands of people each. Of course most of the people attending were vaccinated. 350 vaccinated got infected, 90% of them with Delta. The efficacy of the vaccines is 90-95% for the Alfa variant, less for Delta. These numbers are perfectly in line with the predicted protection rates. You should lern to think logically instead of parroting fact twisters.
@Jan Reynolds if no one in your country wants the vaccine, how is this a wealthy/poor issues?
Shameful
@Jen Vicinity angry anti-maskers surround a guy’s car who spoke in favor of masks. People in stores have been attacked for asking ppl to wear masks.
Aren’t we being a bit too judgmental. Some people just prefer ventilators, ECMO machines, and/or tombstones to masks, social distancing, and/or vaccinations. They’re making morticians great again. You know, freedumb.😒
As a Critical Care RN..youbare not funny..more selfish..
@Utopia 2030 It sounds like you don’t mind the death of a few hundred children? What a callous perspective. Comparing it to the flu, so it doesn’t matter? One child’s COVID death should be heartbreaking. At this point all of these hospitalizations and deaths are wildly preventable if everyone would just get their shot. Are you not watching news coverage where doctors are telling us they have never seen this many children in this much distress? This Delta variant is just getting started. Those eligible for the vaccine are responsible to keep the community safe by getting vaccinated.
Agree- and they are taking up icu beds for people who need it for other serious illnesses. What a tragedy
Oh s#&t that was funny,sadly true but funny!!🤣
Some of these fools will one day want to buy a home, but because of medical bills and bankruptcy they won’t be able to and some will be on long term disability.
Please keep the medical professionals in your prayers people. They deserve them.
@Regulatory Affairs you are extremely gullible.
@Pedro The Mexican did you get the vaccine?
@davegar They’re trying and failing, but many have met their maker so there’s that.
@Nicholas Crow It’s most likely a bot spreading disinformation. there’s quite a bit of those around now, most of which say the exact same thing on videos about covid-19 or politics. Disinformation is real, people seem to forget that Russia was deeply involved in a disinformation campaign here within the US, setting up political and health sites that fed people conflicting information. The US Cyber warfare programs had a hard time and is still having a hard time getting rid of these. The mess we’re seeing now is due to that. Sad I know… One thing that Russia and China have been getting extremely proficient at is cyber warfare.
@peachesandpoets oh stop parroting the media that 97% of doctors got vaccinated , you ppl believe anything don’t you ?
Note to self: stay out of Alabama
@Dan P was I talking to you fucking dan?
Never intended to go there in the first place. Same goes for many other hardcore red states.
Note to self: stay out of the majority of states
I’m sure Alabama is Ok with you people not coming over there anyways.
@Elizabeth Claire Because if they educate the population the GOP would lose control of their votes.
Maybe for the next pandemic they will listen to the medical experts instead of religious & political leaders. Ha, Who am I kidding? That won’t happen.
@gokarengo shame you don’t own a brain to go with it!
@Lot 59 Wow, I thought the vaccine would save us, what’s happening? Why isn’t it working? If every anti vaxxer died would it disappear magically in your magic world of science? lol
@T. W. nature!? yep, is that a kool aid mustache on you?
@D Shawn it’s too many of you so it’s going to take some time. Last time, I checked there were roughly 74 million. So make sure you don’t wear mask and don’t take vaccine. It will come.
It’s maddening that the GOP will not pay a price for the Née saying about the virus.
Hey my state has plenty of beds just sitting there in the Hospital doing nothing
@Paul Palmer One of the reasons (there are several) why vaccination rates are low for African-Americans is due to a lack of trust. Starting in 1932 and running until 1972 African- Americans were recruited for a study. Mostly very poor sharecroppers; and these folks were paid to be involved in a free medical assistance program. Instead of medical assistance, subjects were given syphilis and then those with the disease had the progress of the disease monitored but there were absolutely no treatments given to those who had the disease. Given that history, it is fairly easy to understand the hesitancy of receiving some vaguely described but quickly developed vaccine for a disease which was reported as being brand new.
@Duane Pipe – WOMEN HAVE GOTTEN THEIR RIGHTS !!! IT’S HER BODY !!! IT’S HER DECISION !!! IT’S HER RESPONSIBILITY !!! SO WHAT THE HELL ARE MEN PAYING CHILD SUPPORT FOR ??? FOR SOMETHING THAT CAME OUT OF HER BODY ??? IT IS TOTALLY HER RESPONSIBILITY !!!!
@WILLY WONG my god if there is a child then shouldn’t the man pay his way, if she chose termination then it ends there, but that is solely the woman’s choice
@D P There are many indications that the world that American minorities live in a less equal situation , even today. Prison sentences, housing and education are but a few discrepancies.
Next time you talking heads get a chance ask point-blank questions to these so-called leaders. Like what will you tell your constituents that require an ICU service for a non-covid related illness? Don’t let them equivocate. Put them on camera and make them answer.
That’s a good one. Getting a politician to answer a question. I think I would rather wait until pigs fly

AWESOME
Don’t visit these states, choke them with your Dollar.
Build a big beautiful wall around Florida and make them pay for it!!
“Sweet home Alabama”
Where Covids comin’ through…..
” gimme three steps toward the morgue “
“Tied to the covid post, tied to the covid post.
Good Lord, I feel like I’m dyin’.”
@Sam Huff “Heaven …must be missing an angel girl because you got the shot right now “
Why would hospital staff have COVID?
This is what you get for being governed by the “pro life” party.
The folks that call themselves “pro-life” are in reality “pro-egg.” That’s why they don’t give a s**t about the already born.
@Thomas Tomoson You do realize, don’t you, that no one at Planned Parenthood kills any babies?
@CatMom No, he didn’t realize that. But then, since when do they need facts or truth?
@CatMom hordy doorty do de duh doyeeeeeeeee. And Joe Biden is the greatest president ever, right? You should have never taken those pills your mommy had to give you in order to get a check every month.
By pro-life you mean pro virus life. Making sure those little virus particles can thrive.
1:13. In other words: If you need lifesaving treatment for a non-covid emergency you’re shittle-dittle out of luck!
unvaccinated covid patients who don’t have a contraindication to the vaccine should go to the back of the line, if we’re down to an either or situation in terms of resources.
Amen.
The problem is for any other non covid emergency that needs an ICU bed.
@Cajek
I understand. I live in one of the reddest of states, but it is in the northwest and not the southeast. We are getting hammered and the idiots in my town just won’t wear masks or get vaccinated.
hospital has 100 icu beds. they “designate’ 5 beds for covid and 95 for everything else.
if all 5 beds are full the “icu is at max capacity” while in reality its not
stop watching cnn. it only makes you dumber and more arrogant
@BronzeleagueRL You work in an Alabama hospital, eh? You a doctor? Nurse? Tell us.
@BronzeleagueRL and exactly where do you get this information from? Where can we find it to fact check it ourselves. Because facts are important.
Why aren’t all these science deniers being redirected to their nearest political representative? Asking for a friend.
Maybe these people just aren’t praying hard enough. God only hears you when you bug the living crap out of him as I understand it by watching the televangelists.
@Sam Huff Don’t forget, you have to bribe him with big donations to the minister.
I just imagine the crazy “science deniers” that were afraid to work with asbestos or leaded paints when the smart scientists all said “These things are perfectly safe. Let’s build new homes for families with them.”
There have been plenty of patients fighting cancer and many other forms of life threatening illness this whole time, none of them asked to be sick and should be given priority when it comes to intensive care.
Meanwhile, they have to wait, thanks to people who refused to get vaccinated, which is just wrong.
I honestly don’t understand the anti vax movement. “We don’t trust medical science” then they get sick with covid and seek hospitals who deals in medical science..
