NCHS estimates of #LongCovid—based on Household Pulse Survey—provide for volatile projections. Census Bureau latest updated early Nov—still no word on next release date. As more and more folk experience Long Covid, fewer & fewer have been staffing our hospitals. #ThisIsOurPolio #CountLongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #MassDisablingEvent [This is first toot of a weekly thread, updated daily, providing various dataviz of ongoing #pandemic.] Last week: https://mastodon.social/@beadsland/111564721776633841

NCHS estimates of #LongCovid—based on Household Pulse Survey—provide for volatile projections. Census Bureau released most recent data last Wed—next update due Novem. 8. As more and more folk experience Long Covid, fewer & fewer have been staffing our hospitals. #ThisIsOurPolio #CountLongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #MassDisablingEvent [This is first toot of a weekly thread, updated daily, providing various dataviz of ongoing #pandemic.] Last week: https://mastodon.social/@beadsland/111207900053730309

Per WHO, every twelve minutes four people die of acute covid. Three of those deaths are in the United States. As of March, for every three covid deaths, the U.S. saw another excess death not attributed to covid. The emergency is over. Covid is not done with us. #ThisIsOurPolio #LongCovidKills #LongCovid #Covid #Covid19 #SARS2 #DeathCult #LifeExpectancy #CovidIsNotOver #CovidIsAirborne #WearAMask #BetterMasks

Given evidence linking covid infection to sudden onset liver damage, recent increased liver disease mortality is hardly surprising. Elevated accidental deaths, however, are less open to presumptive explanation. Our world has changed and with it our expectations.

Folk are dying at record numbers, of comorbidities of severe acute covid that are also implicated as post-acute sequelae of covid infection. ↺ Of course, ongoing hospital staffing attrition also contributes to elevated death tolls. Said attrition continues. ↺ [Bug fix.

Arcturus XBB.1.16 (incl. FU.1) line now near third of GISAID sequences; one in five CDC specimens most regions. Hyperion XBB.1.9.1 (incl FL.*) over quarter of GISAID. CDC shows most prominent in Middle South. Acrux 2.3 clan prominent in Northwest, Mtn/Dakotas. #ThisIsOurPolio #Covid #Covid19 #SARS2 #CDC #variants #CovidIsNotOver #CovidIsAirborne #WearAMask #BetterMasks

Third week of post-Kraken soup, CDC breaks out Arcturus kid XBB.1.16.1. Over two fifths of CDC biweekly dark blue XBB.1.5 look to be subvariants. Kraken dot1 and FD.2—broken out by CDC—seem plateaued. Some half of 15-day GISAID not descended from Kraken at all.

Counties by adult hospital capacity (darkest counties on the map above): #1 Warren, NY—131% #2 Lawrence, IN—130% #3 Wise, VA—127% #4 Smyth, VA—121% #5 Buchanan, MO—114% #6 Covington, MS—112% #7 Yuma, AZ—110% #8 Kenton, KY—107% #9 Delta, MI—103% #10 Boone, KY—102% #ThisIsOurPolio #hospitals #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #nurses #MassDisablingEvent #CovidIsAirborne #BringBackMasks

Some 62 (+1) counties ≥ 100% capacity per HHS data. Reporting ≥ 90%: 198 (-8)—near one in twelve with any capacity. Includes surge and overflow beds: near full can mean E/Rs with day long wait times. For counties w/ ICUs—near one in six are full or near full. #ThisIsOurPolio #hospitals #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #nurses #MassDisablingEvent #CovidIsAirborne #BringBackMasks #dataviz #datavis

Counties by pediatric capacity (darkest counties on the map above): #1 Coconino, AZ ≥150% #2 San Juan, UT ≥133⅓% #3 Collier, FL—132% Idaho—131% #4 Aroostook, ME—111% #5 Onondaga, NY—106% #6 Potter, TX—100% #7 Buncombe, NC—100% #8 Collin, TX—100% #9 Anoka, MN—100% #10 Galveston, TX—100% #ThisIsOurPolio #RSV #Strep #Flu #LongCovidKids #CovidIsNotOver #BringBackMasks

Some 185 (+5) counties have pediatric care near or over capacity (≥ 90%). Of 258 (-3) counties reporting any PICU capacity, near one in six are over or near full. So many places where there aren't enough staff for sick or injured kids to receive required care. #ThisIsOurPolio #pediatric #hospitals #pedsICU #RSV #Strep #Flu #LongCovidKids #CovidIsNotOver #nurses #MassDisablingEvent #CovidIsAirborne #BringBackMasks #dataviz #datavis

Pediatric staffing never recovered to pre-omicron levels. Rather, one in five pediatric beds reported last May: now missing. PICU Capacity Level (not shown): 69%. Weekly average ~50 PICU beds were covid patients. We're failing our kids. The emergency is over. #ThisIsOurPolio #hospitals #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #nurses #MassDisablingEvent #CovidIsAirborne #BringBackMasks #dataviz #datavis

More than one in ten responding hospitals indicate Critical Staffing shortages—reversing recovery of last year. Capacity Level has been elevated since independence from the virus was declared—as fewer and fewer professionals are available to staff hospital beds. #ThisIsOurPolio #hospitals #LongCovid #CovidIsNotOver #nurses #MassDisablingEvent #CovidIsAirborne #BringBackMasks #dataviz #datavis
