"That means if your child's in a car wreck, if your child has a congenital heart defect or something and needs an ICU bed, or more likely if they have Covid and need an ICU bed, we don't have one. Your child will wait for another child to die," Jenkins said. "Your child will just not get on the ventilator, your child will be CareFlighted to Temple or #Oklahoma City or wherever we can find them a bed, but they won't be getting one here unless one clears."

Texas is also in the news

ICU

  • Gov. Greg Abbott asked the Texas Hospital Association earlier this week to voluntarily postpone elective medical procedures to free up ICU beds.
  • The state is also bringing in 2,500 out-of-state medical personnel to relieve exhausted doctors and nurses.
  • The surge in cases comes as Abbott wages war against local school and government officials who have reinstituted mask mandates.

Earlier this week, over 40 doctors of Lucknow's King George's #Medical #University were found infected with the #virus. Most of the doctors had already received both jabs of the #coronavirus #vaccine.

This is really bad #news because it suggests that the vaccine is not working on the Indian #mutation of the virus.
