Re: The Coronavirus Thread
A lot of people need their anger levels to be high at all times, and they work hard to create the conditions where that can happen. Anger-addiction is self-defeating response to stress though - as well I know.

More than 4,400 students in Mississippi are quarantining after being exposed to Covid-19 in the first weeks of the school year, according to data from the state's department of health.
Mississippi’s hospital system could fail within 5-10 days. Gov. Tate Reeves says to ‘remain calm.’

More than 4,400 students in Mississippi are quarantining after being exposed to Covid-19 in the first weeks of the school year, according to data from the state's department of health.
Mississippi’s hospital system could fail within 5-10 days. Gov. Tate Reeves says to ‘remain calm.’
mississippitoday.org/2021/08/12/mississippi-hospital-system-fail-tate-reeves-2/The University of Mississippi Medical Center is so overwhelmed with COVID-19 patients during the state’s worst wave of cases that it is constructing a field hospital in a parking garage to increase capacity.
The state’s largest medical center, completely out of staffed intensive care unit beds, is just one of the many medical facilities across the state on the verge of collapse as the delta variant causes a level of need the state’s healthcare workers cannot meet.
“If we track back a week or so when we look at the case positivity rate, the rate of new cases, the rate of hospitalizations — if we continue that trajectory within the next five to seven to 10 days, I think we’re going to see failure of the hospital system in Mississippi,” Dr. Alan Jones, UMMC associate vice chancellor for clinical affairs, said during a press conference on Wednesday.
Dr. LouAnn Woodward, UMMC’s vice chancellor, called the field hospital “a Band-Aid,” noting it as a helpful but limited addition to the hospital’s toolkit. It will be able to host a maximum of 50 COVID-19 patients, and UMMC expects the federal government to send between 30-35 medical professionals to staff it.
Meanwhile, Reeves took to social media on Wednesday to break his lengthy silence on the pandemic, providing an update on actions being taken across the state to address the COVID crisis. This includes the Mississippi Emergency Management Agency requesting that other states help supply Mississippi with healthcare workers, and pursuing contracts with private companies for travel nurses.
“My number one goal from day one of this pandemic has always been to protect the integrity of our health care system,” Reeves said in a social media post.
