TN hits 9% hospital capacity

Tennessee hits 9% hospital capacity (source TN website):

While not yet at the prior levels of cases from last year – cases are significantly higher than the prior 3 months. Note from the orange bars we can see TN got hit pretty hard with the Delta wave:

Also note the spike in fatalities in Dec of 3000+ is a result of a correction in the data – likely a result of under reporting of deaths during the delta wave. Actual December deaths are much lower. Best to think about that 3,000 number as spread across the prior 3 months or so. In which case this is still a concering level…. and further corroborates the current hospital capacity data.

Be careful – especially this new years eve
