TUESDAY #COVID19Colorado update

Headline: More of the same. Which ain't that good. Some (early mind you) suggestion that hospitalization rise is slowing, if just a tad

HOSPITALIZATIONS
covid+ ONLY

Today: 1254 (up 18)
Last week: 1187

(slower than last week jumps)

#9news Image
POSITIVITY

Still in mid 8s

(One day was close to 10) Image
CASES

7 day over 2600

(during the summer we were around 300) Image
What's it all mean?

Remains a pivotal week.

Need this rate increase to continue to slow w/patients.

Take care
One more thing

DEATHS

Close to 22 a day in latest graph (Don't use last few days as guide... death reports can take time to come in) Image

Hey all...

So... @CDPHE is going to be updating the news nerds like me about what's going on with COVID in Colorado right now

It's a pretty critical time...

I'll update with some of the more pressing details below

WEDNESDAY #COVID19Colorado update

Headline: As state ramps up its hospital transfer protocol, patient load continues to build.

HOSPITALIZATIONS
covid+ ONLY:

Today: 1280 (up 26)
Last week: 1191

Not as optimistic as yesterday that this is slowing

#9news Image
CASES

Dipped a little... But hard to say with short-term data. Still over 2500 per day in 7-day

Elevated for sure. Not likely to result in hospital dip anytime soon Image
POSITIVITY

Headed down a smidge. Now below 8 1/2 in 7 day Image

Pay attention to the central/Rocky Mountain region of US

Why? Because this is where growth is happening w/COVID right now.

And, yeah, there's a pattern here.

See if you can see it.

Wanna walk you through something I feel is critical right now as state deals with yet another COVID wave

If you or someone you know is 70+, pay attention.

(This centers around question I just asked @GovofCO)

1/
First... Clearly Colorado is in a tough spot.

One of the worst waves in the country right now

Look at hospitalizations. Headed in the wrong direction.

Now in our 2nd worst wave

2/ Image
What's driving this?

Well, clearly, most people ending up in hospitals, even today, are UNVACCINATED

This is latest figure from state

BUT there's more

QUICK THREAD

So... @uchealth is doing a good job of reporting day-in-the-life data of what it's seeing in its hospitals

Here is where you can find the data

(this is what I hope @CDPHE will soon start to do as well... easy to read, easy to understand)

uchealth.org/today/covid-19…
These numbers represent UCHealth facilities ONLY

Looks like this latest wave will soon be 2nd biggest.

(these numbers are from late last week)
I love this graphic (not the content of it, obviously, but how it's presented)

Basics:
Vaccinated make up...
17% of hospitalized
14% of ICU cases
13% of vents

Just in -- @GovofCO announces 914 hospitalizations in state right now (up 19 from yesterday)

155 are vaccinated

16 people under age of 18

#COVID19Colorado
72K Coloradans have received booster
Quick aside

Scott Bookman has a cow over his shoulder.

I say this for no other reason than I need a cow looking over my shoulder too .
