    Default Children Hospitalized With COVID-19 Hits Record

    "(Reuters) - The number of children hospitalized with COVID-19 in the United States hit a record high of just over 1,900 on Saturday, as hospitals across the South were stretched to capacity fighting outbreaks caused by the highly transmissible Delta variant.

    The Delta variant, which is rapidly spreading among mostly the unvaccinated portion of the U.S. population, has caused hospitalizations to spike in recent weeks, driving up the number of confirmed and suspected pediatric COVID-19 hospitalizations to 1,902 on Saturday, according to data from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services."

    Children hospitalized with COVID-19 in U.S. hits record number

    "The numbers of newly hospitalized COVID-19 patients aged 18-29, 30-39 and 40-49 also hit record highs this week, according to data from the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

    The spike in new cases has ramped up tension between conservative state leaders and local districts over whether school children should be required to wear masks as they head back to the classroom this month.

    School districts in Florida, Texas and Arizona have mandated that masks be worn in schools, defying orders from their Republican state governors that ban districts from imposing such rules. The administration of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis has threatened to withhold funding from districts that impose mask requirements, and Texas Governor Greg Abbott is appealing to the state Supreme Court to overturn Dallas County's mask mandate, the Dallas Morning News reported on Friday.

    A fifth of the nation's COVID-19 hospitalizations are in Florida, where the number of hospitalized COVID-19 patients hit a record 16,100 on Saturday, according to a Reuters tally. More than 90% of the state's intensive care beds are filled, according to data from the Department of Health and Human Services.

    The nation's largest teachers union, the National Education Association, came out in support of mandatory vaccination for its members this week. NEA President Becky Pringle said on Saturday that schools should employ every mitigation strategy, from vaccines to masks, to ensure that students can come back to their classrooms safely this school year."

    They are wrong at every step.

    Sturgis was another super-spreader.

    South Dakota cases skyrocketed in the 2 weeks after Sturgis.

    Then they go back home and spread it all over the nation.

    They give it to their kids who go to school maskless and spread it all around.

    Humans need to wear a mask and keep their germs to themselves.

    The right has no standing so they just make things up.

    all they want to do is be selfish. They never consider their actions.

    Rights and freedom come with responsibilities.

    Arnold said it.

    The America they want never existed. There is no freedom without responsibility.

    They need to stop listening to Tucker Carlson. He makes money from their anger. He's worth $30 million.

    The right needs to get out of their bubble, listen to what the left has to say, think for themselves instead of letting Tucker Carlson tell them what to think.

    Define "growing". Define "changing". Please list the mechanism of "growth" and "change" and how it is "rightys and anti-vaxxers" causing it.

    You are just spewing meaningless hate-fueled drivel. Learn English.

    Almost all these children will live, but most will also have damage done to their health that will come back to haunt them later in life. Rather than be upset about the damage to the people, the alt right is upset that anyone is bringing it up.

    The alt right needs to stop watching fake news, wake up, and accept reality.

    Americans are all on the same side.

    We are fellow citizens in a great country.

    We can make it greater by working together in unity.

    We need to follow the common sense guidelines set down by our very large and meticulous government.

    Having such a large government with a detailed CDC is part of what makes America great.

    The alt right doesn't know how good they have it.

    If they'd like to see what having no government looks like just take a look at Afghanistan.

    There are a huge number of benefits living in a first world country like the USA. It is sad to watch the alt right refuse to take advantage of those benefits, and worse still to see the children pay the price for that ignorance.

    And there's the thing right there. A lot of the anti-vaxxers fear the vaccine because "We don't know what's in it. We don't know what it will do to us later." Well, guess what? We don't know what having COVID will do to us later either, if we survive having it.

    The vaccine is clearly a million times safer than the disease.

    Yes, it is. The JPP poster "MAGA" made the claim (unverified) the other day that "6,000 people have died" from either the vaccine itself or who were 100% vaccinated but got COVID and died anyways. It wasn't clear which he was claiming, or maybe it was both. So out of 369 MILLION vaccines given, he was freaking out about 6,000 unverified deaths related somehow to the vaccine. Yet at the same time, COVID is a nothingburger with its alleged 2% death rate.

    You truly cannot fix stupid.

    I thought children didn't get COVID? That's what our experts here on JPP have claimed.
