Thank you, but I was asking for actual verifiable information that hospitals are getting clogged due to non-vaccinated people. I asked for two reasons. 1) That is not at all the case with the hospitals near me. 2) The recent articles I've seen make this assertion were immediately retracted due to the people they relied upon not telling the truth. So, before I speak with some of my unvaxxed friends, I wanted actual information to support, otherwise they could (correctly) say not to bring them unfounded assertions.

  Thank you, but that isn't an example of ICUs filled with non-vaxxed. It might be an example of filled ICUs. When I look at reported ICU information for Mississippi, the data doesn't support that.

    Given that vaccination significantly decreases an individual's risk of hospitalization and that only about 40% of Missippippians are fully vaccinated, it seems like we would be justified in inferring that the people filling the ICUs are generally unvaccinated, no?

      Filling the icus might only mean adding 4-8 heads over existing load though if you only have 20-30 beds and you are running 70-80% as a baseline

    The ICUs are full of people with suspected covid. Vaccinated people are less likely to have covid. 40% of Mississippi is vaccinated. Which point are you having trouble with?
