Here's daily hospitalizations and ICUs. There is an upwards trend here. Previously you would see a wave, and then it would go down after protections were put into place. We are no longer seeing those returns to baseline, we are seeing leapfrogging.

This is hospitalizations layered year over year. We have 1070 to last year's 989 patients when comparing October 17th of both years. The highest of last year's fall wave for hospitalizations I believe was 1130. We are 60 patients away from that.

Our average hospitalizations is also surpassing last October so far. (October 2022 is only based off of data up to Oct 17th inclusive.)
