And with 7 COVID patients in the ICU, KHMH has announced that it is completely full. A post from the hospital on Sunday warned, quote, "that the facility has reached a critical point…The Covid ward is again almost at capacity and the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) is full."
It's a firm reality but one that had been foretold, since from the onset of the pandemic, internist, Dr Fernando Cuellar, has been warning the public about people dying in parking lots. Most recently, he alluded to COVID patients having to buy their own blow up beds because there simply won't be anymore left at the hospital.
So what's the solution? Well, the KHMH says, "We encourage persons who are eligible to be vaccinated to do so, and to help us by avoiding the risk of becoming critically ill with severe Covid-19 infection."
