Talked four (maybe five🤞🏼) family members into getting the vaccine this week! As much as I wanted to shake them and yell, turns out patiently talking through their fears and about my own experience worked much better!
655 patients (63 ICU) in the region are in ERs waiting for general or ICU hospital beds, per SETRAC. For context, Houston could build another Ben Taub Hospital, fill it, and still have patients waiting.
