MONDAY #COVID19Colorado update

Headline: Seeing continued and troubling increase in patient count. Positivity nearing ten.

HOSPITALIZATIONS
covid+ ONLY

Today: 1394 (Up 98 from Friday)
Last week: 1236

(this is a net gain of 158 in a week)

#9news
POSITIVITY

Now highest since Dec 13
CASES

Still growing
DEATHS

Around 25 per day
ICU BEDS AVAILABLE

123 as of last count
What's it all mean?

Look for pressure to mount this week for @GovofCO to do something.

His metric has always been HOSPITALIZATIONS.

At this rate, we'll jump past Dec 2020 high in 3-4 weeks.
Bottom line...

This is a bad start to yet another critical week.

Watch hospitalizations closely. (as usual).

But also keep an eye on POSITIVITY (10% has always been a bit of a red line)

Take care yall.

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

WEDNESDAY #COVID19Colorado update

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

HOSPITALIZATIONS

Today: 1280 (up 26)

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

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
