I live in Texas as well. This is all bullshit. You can go to the Texas Medical Center website and see that the icu is running at 80% (well below precovid) and that covid patients make up only a fraction of the bed usage. Note: whenever there is a fear-mongering story in Texas it refers to "Staffed" beds...not available beds. Stop firing nurses and the problem is solved!
