The surge of Covid-19 infections for unvaccinated people is only beginning, experts warn


With the recent increase of Covid-19 infections and hospitalizations due to the spread of the more dangerous Delta variant, health experts and officials expect the surge to worsen as long as large segments of the country remain unvaccinated.

“I think we will see this big, steep acceleration,” Dr. Peter Hotez, co-director for the Center for Vaccine Development at Texas Children’s Hospital, said to CNN’s Anderson Cooper on Friday. “As bad as things are right now in the South, they are about to get worse for lots of unvaccinated individuals.”

Officials in Southern states, where vaccination rates have generally lagged other parts of the country, are working to get the message out. In Florida, Covid-19 cases have jumped 50% over the last week, according to state health data.

In Georgia, the case rate has more than tripled over the last 14-day period, the state Department of Public Health announced Friday as it urged residents to get vaccinated since the Delta variant is more transmissible than earlier Covid-19 strains.

“Unfortunately, we can expect Covid numbers to keep growing. People who are unvaccinated or skip their second dose of vaccine are targets for infection,” said Georgia health commissioner Dr. Kathleen E. Toomey.

More Americans may be responding to the crisis, as recent data from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows the pace of vaccinations is going up. A seven-day average of more than 418,000 people are initiating vaccination daily, which is the highest daily pace since July 5.

Entering the weekend, 49.5% of Americans of all ages are fully vaccinated, according to CDC data. Nearly 33% of those eligible for vaccination – those ages 12 and up – have yet to receive at least one dose.

‘I should have gotten the damn vaccine’: Father of 5 who died of COVID texts from hospital | KRON4

‘I should have gotten the damn vaccine’: Father of 5 who died of COVID texts from hospital

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) – A Las Vegas father who contracted COVID-19 while on vacation texted his fiancee from the hospital, “I should have gotten the damn vaccine,” she later told Nexstar’s KLAS.

Michael Freedy, 39, a father of five, and his fiancee, Jessica du Preez, traveled with their family to San Diego in mid-July.

When Freedy returned home, he developed a painful skin rash, du Preez said.

“He was getting chills, couldn’t eat, couldn’t get comfortable, couldn’t sleep,” du Preez said. “All symptoms of sun poisoning.”

He later tested positive for coronavirus and developed difficulty breathing with pneumonia in both lungs, du Preez said.

“Oh my [expletive] God. This is terrible,” Freedy sent du Preez in a text message from the hospital. “I should have gotten the damn vaccine.”

“I went to the ICU that night to see him, after getting one of the worst phone call updates ever,” du Preez wrote in a GoFundMe post. “The nurse told me to contact next of kin and to take all of his belongings home with me.”

Du Preez said Freedy died in the hospital Thursday morning.

“We were just holding off and now to think that if we just had gotten the shot a week before or a month before when one of our jobs had a vaccination thing, he could still be here,” she said.

Both du Preez and her eldest child got the first dose of the vaccine when Freedy was admitted to the hospital, she said.

She hopes her family’s story prompts others to take the virus seriously and avoid a similar tragedy. A GoFundMe for the family had raised nearly $20,000 as of noon Friday.

Doctor: Explosive rise in COVID-19 cases will lead to spike in deaths come Labor Day

Nebraska Medicine infectious disease expert says ICU rates 'going up like a rocket.'

Doctor: Explosive rise in COVID-19 cases will lead to spike in deaths come Labor Day

The Douglas County Health Department reported Friday there were 145 new COVID-19 cases, the highest total seen in a single day in more than three months.

Hospitalizations are again on the rise, with 66 patients in metro hospitals. Thirty-five of them are in the intensive care unit, nearly double from just a few days ago.

While no new deaths have been reported, doctors said the community could be weeks from a spike in deaths.

"The hospitalization and ICU rates are going up like a rocket," said Nebraska Medicine's Dr. James Lawler.

Lawler said with the sudden rise of more sick people now in the hospital, there will be grim news come Labor Day.

"It takes about a month before you start seeing deaths in your community in a pandemic wave," he said.

The people who will lose their lives to COVID-19 in this wave, Lawler said are healthy and in the prime of their lives.

"For people in their 20s, 30s, 40s and 50s, the worst part of the pandemic is actually coming now," Lawler said. "If you're not vaccinated, your chance of dying of COVID is dramatically higher now than it ever has been."

Lawler said about 97 percent of patients are younger and unvaccinated, different than last year, when those in hospital beds were older with underlying health issues.

But he said this epidemic wave, which hasn't yet reached its peak, could be prevented with the vaccine.

"Normal, healthy people, who are ending up intubated in ICUs because they are not vaccinated," he said.

Lawler urges people to at least wear a mask if they won't get vaccinated and warns the delta variant is twice as contagious as the first virus.

"We are dealing with a virus that is very, very different than the virus we saw last year, which is much easier to transmit from person to person," Lawler said.

COVID-19 Surges Among Unvaccinated in Florida, Contrary to Baseless Claims - FactCheck.org

Florida health officials have reported a 60% rise in COVID-19 cases, and hospitals are reporting that 95% of COVID-19 patients are not fully vaccinated. But a Facebook post makes the baseless claims that Florida's numbers are not going up, and that all COVID-19 patients recently admitted to a...

Florida COVID ward nurse: ‘We’re back to where we were in December’

ABC News' Kyra Phillips speaks with Jacksonville, Florida, COVID ward nurse Lauren Schiller on life inside a hospital in one of the nation's delta variant hotspots.

Florida is in a very bad situation because of delta and people that don’t want the vaccine but made so much worse because the governor just signed an executive order making masks optional for the school children and hiding data on the virus . Florida is only showing weekly Covid infection and death numbers which is very lagging when daily data is needed. I don’t know if we will ever really know how bad it is in Florida because they want to keep the bad news covered up and hushed.

 

[Dr.Amber Trichome]

I was just listening to up first and heard some really disturbing news. They reported that the worst environment for a new variant to emerge that will break through our current vaccine , is the situation we have here in the USA . To have many vaccinated and the delta flying around is the perfect storm for a killer variant that will over ride out current vaccine.

Your a fucking idiot.
"Hospital" you work at?
Sounds more like a death trap to me if they're injecting that shit into their patients.
Does it sorta look like this?

The republicans and Foxnews are freaking out now that it's become a pandemic of their supporters and voters, whose tiny minds they poisoned with bullshit. The delta wave will wash over them bigly in the next couple of months, most will survive and many will have live altering and attitude adjusting experiences. Half of their base is unvaxxed and if just 10 or 20% have a epiphany because of it and stay home at least, they they are in deep shit. 90% of the elderly are vaxxed, watching and wondering about the GOP, their covid attitude cost them a lot of senior support, especially if they weather the delta storm, while the young fill the hospitals.

Fortunately better vaccines and boosters are in the works, there's one that does in ALL corona viruses very effectively and entraps the virus in evolutionary terms. The war ain't won dear, but we now have a fighting chance and the scientific payoff has only just begun.

In the meantime there are several antibody therapies available that still work and better ones on the way, these can give immunocompromised people up to 3 months of protection and act as a temporary vaccine. I'm pretty sure this and N95 masks are how some of the people you work with can be protected, with antibody boosters 4 times a year on top of a vax.

I think hospitals should survey the Covid patients when they get to the hospital for treatment . One of the questions should be....
Are you against getting the vaccine?
if the answer is yes and they test positive them refuse treatment and send them on their way home.

that’s good news! So maybe these idiots who are antivaxxers and dying of delta will have to learn the hard way and maybe then they will be some the biggest supporters of vaccines.

At the rate delta is spreading (exponentially in some places) most of the unvaxxed and many of the vaxxed will end up with covid in a couple of months. Most of the vaxxed will just get bolstered immunity and the "Wu Flu" at worst, many of the unvaxxed are in for the ride of their lives, for some it will be the final ride.

Many have been deceived and many have deceived themselves and others, there are victims and the guilty mixed in together among the unvaxxed. Sooner or later the healthcare insurance companies will take care of it in America and make stupidity a preexisting condition.

PS. Keep yer vitamin D levels in the high normal range just in case. Delta has high virus levels in the nose and throat and vitamin D does the most good for immunity there. Recent research indicates that some people's immunity (genetic) to covid is severely compromised with low vitamin D levels. If you do get the "Wu Flu" and are vaxxed and with adequate vit D, it could mean a mild or asymptomatic case, or no case at all IMHO.

She doesn’t work in a hospital, she turns tricks in the alley behind the hospital.

Or perhaps the state hospital where she resides, they need to reconsider their internet access policy for the patients though.
I've said that 1/6 looked like they emptied several state hospitals on the capitol steps and this is an example. I'm surprised she never made it to the capitol insurrection, probably couldn't afford the bus fare.
