The county considers it a good thing hospitalization rates are dropping -

Posted by Meg (aka Mojave) Jan 31 '21, 15:31

"The number of coronavirus patients in county hospitals continued its downward trend, declining from 1,442 Saturday to 1,412, with the number of patients in intensive care dropping from 394 to 392."

But at the same time they report 44 deaths. Wouldn't this reflect a net gain in hospitalizations, or did these people die at home? 🙄

Not exactly the same, but our school is excited about the drop in discipline referrals. - Volnelk Jan 31, 15:35
Well, that's certainly one way of reducing those hospitalizations. During the French Revolution, the prison population dropped significantly, too. -- nm - Mop Jan 31, 15:33
