2/ This surge is different. The children are disproportionately affected – 1 in 3 new cases. Overall, and this is hard to believe, but we are at our ALL TIME HIGH in admissions. 
3/ 🎥 Except for immunocompromised patients, almost all in hospital are #unvaxxed. We are re-deploying OR personnel to the ICU and having to curb care for non-COVID pts. It’s just not fair to them. Not getting vaxxed means more suffering for everyone.
4/ We are unfortunately #1 in the WORLD in case rate & our biostatistical model shows we have NOT peaked. That will likely happen weeks from now. How many young people will die? Healthy college students dying of large blood clots, babies not making it to term, moms on a vent. 😡

See the WORST 25 STATES. Mandatory #Vaccination deadline is Sept 30th at @VUMC_Vaccines.
Over 99% of our @VUMChealth leaders are vaxxed. Let science lead us in the fight to curb this ongoing #PublicHealth crisis. Only vaccination can really end this. Get #maxvaxxed.
