NEWS on COVID-19 in Arizona: https://ktar.com/story/3748520/modeler-says-unchecked-covid-will-create-humanitarian-crisis-in-arizona/
PHOENIX – A University of Arizona researcher says a “major humanitarian crisis” appears inevitable in the state because of the unmitigated spread of COVID-19.
“We have now all but locked in a major humanitarian crisis during the Christmas-New Year holiday with hundreds of preventable deaths per week,” Dr. Joe Gerald, a member of the Tucson school’s COVID-19 Modeling Team, wrote Friday in his weekly pandemic report.
The report (which has the following disclaimer: “This information represents my personal views and not those of The University of Arizona, the Zuckerman College of Public Health, or any other government entity”) is filled with dire projections and amplifies warnings issued by the UArizona COVID-19 Modeling Team at the end of November.
“Hospital COVID-19 occupancy has now exceeded the previous peak number of hospitalized patients and ICUs will set new records by the end of next week,” Friday’s report says. “By early January, hospital capacity will be overwhelmed by new COVID-19 cases.”
The day the report was issued, the number of Arizona’s confirmed or suspected COVID-19 inpatients surpassed July’s record levels, according to the Arizona Department of Health Services. Sunday was the third consecutive record-setting day for coronavirus hospitalizations.
Gerald wrote that Arizona hospitals have begun postponing surgeries for non-COVID conditions to create capacity to accommodate the flood of virus patients. He said that the extra capacity is likely to be overwhelmed, however.
