Our hospitals are stretched to capacity right now. Our nurses and doctors are exhausted. They've been battling COVID-19 for months on end.

Every choice we make, we must think of them.

The vaccine is on its way, but we need to get through the worst of this first. pic.twitter.com/sxkvCSIBvU

National data (CDC, Covid Tracking Project, Johns Hopkins University, New York Times)

We’re missing all data from 7 states today and 9 more didn’t update current hospitalization/ICU/vent figures. Some states are reporting normally, some are reporting multiple days of data, and almost all are dealing with at least some holiday backlogs.
