with cellphone cameras everywhere in today’s world it’s strange that there aren’t any pictures of all of these covid patients that are supposedly overwhelming icu units in u.s. hospitals...

The article states the hospitals were treating 213 corona cases, up from 168 and that one hospital ran out of ventilators but was able to borrow more before "a new patient" arrived. "a new patient" as in ONE. So in the interest of objectivity and truth.

How many patients in the hospital are currently on ventilators as a treatment for corona virus infection?

How are they "treating" the rest of the corona patients? Are they giving them HCQ? Ivermectin? How are they treating them?

These are questions I'm sure they don't want to answer.

In my opinion, ventilators = hospice.

agree.........I read it several times....overuse of ventilators was killing them off. Oxygen with those little nose tubes much more successful. I’m sure less stressful.

Isn't it though! I said the same thing when this BS was claimed to be going on in El Paso. None of these stories are ever verified.

If that’s true, then this news is meant to scare those who haven’t taken the vaccine. Illegals are the likely carriers, and the rest of the population has to pay the price for the Biden-Biden-Harris administration’s antics.

"Let me guess, DELTA DELTA DELTA!!"

Missouri leads the Nation, in the percentage of new cases that are the Delta (Indian) variant (B.1.617.2, in purple).

Delta is already the most common variant in a few other States (Utah, Colorado, Arkansas, ...), as well as Los Angeles County.

Judging by how it spread in other Countries (like India and the UK), it will become the dominant strain Nationwide in the USA this month.

I met Melanie Hutsell years ago and told her I was a Tri Delt and how funny the skits were. She said they legally had to quit doing them after a few broadcasts. They were hysterical!”

A younger female sibling was a member of another Sorority,

She and other sorority gals, claimed that the Tri Delts on TV were very similar to those in their colleges.

Particularly in some of the original A&M colleges. The Tri Delts could drink beer with the guys and drive tractors and combines with no problems. They held their own when they arm wrestled the guys and when they went hunting.

They would be better off going home and taking care of themselves
