"You do you" is Eu-gen-ics.
NCHS estimates of #LongCovid—based on Household Pulse Survey—resume after three month hiatus.
Gap in data collection makes jump hard to interpret. New data scheduled Mar 21.
As more & more folk experience Long Covid, fewer & fewer have been staffing our hospitals.

"You do you" is Eu-gen-ics.
Here's hoping—as Nex Benedict & Aaron Bushnell both mourned, Jordan airdrops aid…followed by Canada & US, Lorentz defends platforming, evergreen state seeks to ban protest and Sunak vows crackdown, primary voters uncommitted, death toll 30-90K, Nenookaasi burns down, CDC drops 5-day isolation on Disabled Day of Mourning, and Vibe'n kisses Meloni—that all those reading this are having a week wherein they & theirs are putting health & welfare of those they love—and share air with—first & foremost.

Given evidence linking covid infection to sudden onset liver damage, recent increased liver disease mortality is hardly surprising.
Final mortality data for 2020—released in Sept.—reveals spike in accidental deaths driven by poisonings & exposure to noxious substances.
[CDC 2021 data was due mid-2023.]

"You do you" is Eu-gen-ics.
Per WHO, every 12 minutes four people die of acute covid. Three of those deaths are in U.S.
As of Apr 2023, for every three covid deaths, U.S. saw another excess death not attributed to covid.
Current WHO & Economist estimates reflect same trend globally.
[After two weeks dark, WHO data advances a week.]

New England again falls below CDC reporting threshold, despite Mass General's now 17-month "unprecedented capacity crisis".
Two subvariants broken out, JN.1 still over 90% but for NY/NJ, where JN.1.13 near ⅒.
JN.1.13 prominent in all but Southwest, where JN.1 still over 95%. JN.1.18 most evident in Mid-Atlantic.

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. ↺
[CDC ended excess death reporting Sep 27.]

Occupied beds in excess of staffed beds indicates that patients are not receiving adequate care.
For comparison, Suffolk County, MA is at 93% adult hospital capacity, 90% adult ICU.
Mass. General—at 96% capacity/96% ICU—largest of some dozen Suffolk hospitals, is 16 months into an "unprecedented capacity crisis".

Tenth week of Pirola BA.2.86 grankid JN.1 wave. Per GISAID, mid-Feb over half of this likely attributable to variants—including upstart JN.1.4.
JN.1.4 still ⅕ of JN sequences in GISAID. CDC breaks out JN.1.13 & JN.1.18.
Meanwhile, among half dozen lineages, Priola dot1 BA.2.86.1, Eris 5.1 dot6 HV.1 & Eris dot1/dot10 GE/HK fams each over ⅒ non-JN share.

Mid Feb, Pirola dot1 kid JN.1 still dominates fam in GISAID, w/ bubbles for some dozen states.
Eris dot6 kid HV.1 at plurality among non-JN sequences.
Fams of Kraken dot102 grankid JD.1.1, Acrux dot10 GE.1, Eris dot3 kid JG.3 each remain active across multiple states; other lineages still evident.
[Plan to incorporate this data into #AnnoPlot #dataviz above.]

Some 332 (-3) counties reporting pediatric care near or over capacity (≥ 90%).
Of 278 (+2) counties reporting any PICU capacity, near one in four are near or over full.
So many places where there ain't enough staff for sick or injured kids to receive required care.

"Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)…continues to struggle daily with unprecedented overcrowding – particularly in its Emergency Department (ED)."
Statistics, as always, are structural.
Data reported to HHS don't include ED patients awaiting inpatient beds. Moreover, weekly data can easily obscure daily overcrowding.
If MGH can be in 16-month unprecedented crisis w/out ever topping 100% reported capacity, just imagine degree of crisis in hospitals ≥100%.
"You do you" is Eu-gen-ics.
Some 42 (-1) counties are reporting ≥ 100% capacity per HHS data.
Reporting ≥ 90%: 252 (+4)—over one in ten of those w/ any capacity.
This includes surge & overflow beds—near full can mean E/Rs with hours-long even day-long, wait times.
For counties w/ ICUs—all but one in five are full or near full.

Capacity Level has been elevated since independence from the virus was declared three summers ago—as fewer & fewer professionals have been available to staff hospital beds.
Critical Staffing Level, already at 2021 levels, has been further elevated for near a year—with some one in nine reporting hospitals at critical shortage.

Pediatric staffing never recovered to pre-omicron levels. Rather, near one in five pediatric beds reported May of 2022: now missing.
PICU Capacity Level (not shown): 70%.
Weekly average ~155 PICU beds were covid patients.
We're failing our kids. The emergency is over.
