Hospitals across the U.S. are juggling a record amount of patients as the number who need hospital beds in intensive care units continues to rise. CNN writes:

More than 100,000 people are currently hospitalized with Covid-19 in the United States, according to data from the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). That number puts the US in a worse place than August of last year.

There were 100,317 people hospitalized with the virus Wednesday — more than double the 48,851 in the hospital on the same day last year.

While much of the recent focus has been on the rise in cases in the South, many other states are also being impacted including those out west. New Mexico is being hit especially hard. According to USA Today, the state “is on pace to surpass its worst-case projections for cases and hospitalizations.”

New Mexico’s top health officials have had to establish a waiting list for intensive care unit beds for the first time ever and they’re warning that the state is about a week away from having to ration medical care as coronavirus infections climb and nurses are in short supply.

Oregon is also dealing with a huge increase in patients needing beds in intensive care units. Medford, Oregon ICU nurse Clarissa Carson told CBS News “Every day we see just the body boxes roll out one after the other and then as soon as we clean the room we get somebody back in there… It’s the worst we’ve ever seen.”

CBS writes:

Hospitalizations in Oregon hit a record high on Wednesday. ICU beds are at 93% capacity statewide.

Oregon’s governor has deployed National Guard members to 20 hospitals, and many health systems have canceled elective surgeries.
