“We’re at that point in time where there’s so much death they don’t build hospital morgues to handle situations like this,” the CEO of North Memorial Health in Minneapolis says.
in the U.S. As of Friday, more than 73 percent of new cases in the country had been caused by the omicron variant.
“We did not have a lot of omicron even a few weeks ago, but within the last three weeks or so, 50 percent of the patients that were tested amongst our health care facilities were omicron-positive,” Duggal said. “We are consistently seeing up to 800 Covid patients in the different hospitals in northeast Ohio amongst the Cleveland Clinic Health Care System. And 1 out of every 4 patients is in the ICU,” he said.
Emergency departments statewide “are reporting anywhere from 25-50 percent of their nursing positions vacant” with inpatient units “equally starved for staffing,” Dr. Nadine Himelfarb, the president of the Rhode Island Chapter of the American College of Emergency Physicians, wrote in a letter to the governor last week lamenting the “chronic” worker shortage.
