I remember when you posted that funny article about ivermectin overdoses taking up hospital beds (that was debunked a day or two later).

Now it's a tiny hospital (with 25 beds) so overwhelmed that it's ending patients elsewhere? 

Come on, man, even Let's Go Brandon! can see thru this one!

As far as your tax dollars doing all the work, I'd imagine a good amount of folks who live in the area work in Spokane, the closest city of any size.  Besides, isn't helping others afford what they cannot via taxation one of the basic liberal principles?

The government in Idaho needs to get their act together and their vaccination rates up. Low vaccination = high hospitalizations.  

 

Elective care in Washington and Utah is being impacted by Idaho Covid cases.

In fact, as vaccinations have increased, so have covid cases.  Imagine that...

All the real data is showing vaccinated people are being hospitalized at a higher rate than unvaccinated people so it's likely the vaccinated people causing these issues.

Well, you tax dollars for also being used to fight lawsuits from the woke/Left takeover of portions of Seattle, is that fine?

Oddly enough, Idaho is sending my state unvaccinated people.

According to health officials

Crisis care

"For the people who say 'we all die sometime:' Yes we do," Souza said. "But these people didn't need to die now, and they didn't need to die like this."

Of the patients hospitalized with COVID-19, 90 percent are unvaccinated, as are 98 percent of ICU patients. Of the sliver of COVID-19 patients who are vaccinated, many have compromised immune systems, such as organ-transplant patients and people who are actively being treated for cancers.

The unvaccinated are far from the only ones suffering in this crushing surge. Health department director Jeppesen noted in an emotional appeal that his mother suffered a stroke and a fall on Thursday, just as crisis standards went into effect statewide. His mother went to an emergency department, where she saw people being treated in the waiting room. She had to wait longer than normal for care and was treated in a "nontraditional" area of the hospital. Though the hospital would have normally kept his mother overnight for observation, she was instead discharged the same day. Though he reported that his mother appears to be recovering well, the stroke was more

So a three week old story.  According to the numbers, the cases in Idaho peaked a week or so ago, but I guess that does not add to the fear porn.

The article speaks to the claim that the original article offered opinion not evidence that unvaccinated are driving covid hospitalizations in Idaho. The article quotes a Idaho public health official. 

 

Cases may or may not have peaked, it is currently a crisis. 

 

Again, I lay this at the feet of the Idaho Governor.

The numbers seem to show Washington also having an issue with Covid that peaked in early September and was double what is/was going on in Idaho as to cases and the 7 day moving average of deaths with and because of Covid.  Are you holding your own Governor to account?

Health officials say a lot of things (Fraudci comes to mind). The HHS director here in Wisconsin has been caught in numerous lies for example. I would be interested in seeing the raw data.

We are supposed to take the word of someone like Dr. Fauci who is all for creating these types of viruses?
