AUSTIN (KXAN) In a joint Austin City Council and Travis County Commissioners meeting, local health authority Dr. Desmar Walkes said there were just two ICU beds left in the 11-county region Austin is in, as of Monday.

Those ICU bed availabilities fluctuate depending on staffing and hospitals discharging or transferring patients, among other factors.
Dr. Walkes noted that ICU bed availability is low across the entire state of Texas which makes transferring people to other hospitals increasingly difficult.
There are people that are waiting for ICU beds in our emergency rooms, Dr. Walkes said.

Of the people in area hospitals, more than 80% of them are unvaccinated. An additional 3.7% of those people are partially vaccinated.

This is really bad.

If they used bunk beds they'd have twice as many beds, and could have slumber parties

I have no idea whether or not he's a racist, but apparently there are recordings of him using racial slurs so it's a distinct possibility.

Forcible door to door vaccinations.

No mask in Public means prison. Should be legal to shoot no maskers who refuse to leave.

Anti-vaxxers are bad but posts like these are hypocritical especially when in other threads my guess is you are against police brutality like I am.

Hospital beds are heavy as balls, and trying to mess with pressers and pushing IVs for a patient that's above your head sounds like an engineering nightmare.

Also imagine being in the bottom bunk and the top bro in a coma just goes and shits himself.

bill is hogging all the hospital beds. in reality it fuels variants and only impacts self mainly.
everyone else doesn't get as sick as unvaccinated.

just sharing what they have.

though this is decreasing hospital beds. they'll have to choose who lives and dies.
