@50megatonFbomb @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled you kept trying to double down until it became clear that you couldn’t support your claims with data. then you started suggesting that it was everyone else’s fault for not knowing what you meant. not exactly forthcoming behavior, and is the very definition of misinfo
@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled It was literally my second response to you where I said I was referring to patients hospitalized for covid. There was no double down. I saw that I was not clear in my first post and I clarified that I was referring to patients hospitalized for covid.
@50megatonFbomb @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled you’re referring to this tweet? where you doubled down on your assertion that “[unvaxxed] are the ones driving hospital census numbers up now?”

@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled "The vase majority of patients hospitalized with vovid are unvaccinated. That part. Also, yes, covid patients are driving up census numbers. They're not 90% of all admissions. But if they were simply vaccinated, hospitals would be at a more reasonable burden.
@50megatonFbomb @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled i am once again asking you to provide any data that supports the notion that unvaxxed represent a disproportionate load on hospital systems
@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled What do you think is driving up hospitalizations? Like, do you have any reasoning capabilities at all? If you see a stat that shows 60k covid hospitalizations in a city and then you see a report that says hospitals are over capacity, what do you think is driving that?
@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled Like if covid hospitalizations are at record highs, what else would be causing hospitals to operate at or over capacity?
@50megatonFbomb @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled healthcare is run as a for-profit institution in the US. capitalism demands minimizing expenses and maximizing profits, and staffing an unoccupied bed represents an expense with no return. what makes you think that seasonal hospital surges are a new thing?
@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled The peak right before this latest peak was September 1st, so I'm not sure you know what seasonal means.
@50megatonFbomb @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled show me the actual hospital utilization trends. not COVID hospitalizations, OVERALL hospitalizations. you are so close to getting it, i believe in you
@postholeservice @medieval_bops @sanrio_pilled Do you have any evidence to suggest that current hospitalization trends are not currently being driven by record high covid hospitalizations? I'll happily eat my words if it's something else. But we both know it's covid.
