U.S. COVID-19 CASES NOW TOP 40 MILLION

There have now been more than 40 million cases of COVID-19 recorded among
Americans, according to a database maintained by The New York Times. That’s
nearly one-fifth of the global total of cases.



With the Delta variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus cutting a swathe through the
United States, and about 47% of the eligible population still not fully
vaccinated, COVID-19 has roared back over a summer that began with Americans
hopeful that the worst was behind them.

According to the Times, as of Sunday there have been an average 161,000 new
cases of COVID-19 in the United States each day. Hospitalizations are topping
102,000 each day, and the daily COVID-19 death toll is now at 1,560.

The vast majority of people hospitalized and dying are unvaccinated, greatly
burdening an already overburdened health care system. According to the Times, no
state has yet gotten more than 70% of its population fully vaccinated.

Speaking last Wednesday, Gov. Brad Little of Idaho, a Republican, begged people
in his state to get vaccinated: “I wish everyone could have seen what I saw in
the ICU last night,” he said.

Things are so bad in Idaho that rationing of care is underway.

Dave Jeppesen, the state’s director of the Department of Health and Welfare,
said on Tuesday, “When crisis standards of care are in effect, people who need
medical care may experience care that is different from what they expect. For
example, patients admitted to the hospital may find that hospital beds are not
available or are in repurposed rooms (such as a conference room).”

Jeppesen added, “This is a decision I was fervently hoping to avoid.”

In hard-hit West Virginia, Gov. Jim Justice, a Republican, read out a list of
people who had died of conditions linked to COVID-19 since Friday, and echoed
Little’s call for vaccination.

“We’ve got to get vaccinated for all, not just for you but for everybody — we’ve
got to do this,” Justice said. “We can stop a lot of this terrible, terrible
carnage.”

A busy, infectious long weekend

With the Delta variant surging and many Americans mask- and vaccine-free, new
cases of COVID-19 spiked to levels over the long Labor Day weekend that were
300% higher than those seen over the same weekend in 2020, according to a new
tally from Johns Hopkins University.

That means packed hospitals and rising numbers of infected children as a new
school year begins, according to CNN.

“The takeaway for everyone is get your shots and certainly wear a mask for that
added layer of protection if you’re in public indoor spaces right now,” Dr.
Megan Ranney, professor of emergency medicine and associate dean of public
health at Brown University, in Providence, R.I., told the news agency.

The surge in new cases could really hit a high point in about two weeks from
now: Last year at this time, cases surged in 31 states, and the number of people
testing positive for infection with then new coronavirus also spiked in 25
states, CNN said.

And last year, Americans didn’t have the highly transmissible Delta variant to
contend with. It’s part of the reason that CDC director Dr. Rochelle Walensky
last week urged people to curb their travel over the Labor Day holiday. She also
again pushed for vaccination: Right now only 62% of Americans who are eligible
for a vaccine (everyone 12 years of age and older) are fully vaccinated.

It’s the unvaccinated who are landing in hospitals and dying, experts say.

“Here’s the important thing: everyone that I’m hospitalizing is not vaccinated,”
Ranney told CNN. “We are, by and large across the country, not needing to
hospitalize people that have gotten both doses of the vaccine. This is a disease
of the unvaccinated right now.”
