From what I've read, this article was a misquote/misinformation about the doctors' protest. My understanding was that they were protesting NOT being allowed to treat unvaxed people.

At the height of the pandemic, when vaccines were not yet available and so nobody was vaccinated, they somehow managed to cope.
Now as the majority (?) of people are vaccinated among the population at large, there should be fewer people showing up at hospitals (and numbers show that's the case, we haven't surpassed any prior peak). And now, with a smaller workload, they can't handle it?

Delta is a different virus in terms of clinical behavior.
People get sicker quicker, younger people are dying.
"they can't handle it?" -- your lack of empathy for people working flat out month after month to save lives is noted. Many were burned out before Delta.

It's not that they don't have my empathy, it's that the way it's being reported doesn't add up. That's all I'm pointing out.

The number of new cases each day is actually higher in Florida now than it was during any of the previous surges, almost double the daily case rate during the second-most-recent surge (Jan. 2021). So, it actually does add up, just fine.

Slight detail to have left out from the report, wouldn't you agree?
That is what I'm complaining about. If news stories don't present all the facts in proper context, they can mislead readers into coming to the wrong conclusions.

It probably also helps to be clear on definitions.
The definition of "case" has not always been the same.
E.g. a person with symptoms seeking medical help for those symptoms or a person with a positive test?

Sad news indeed. From what I gather, he had a medical procedure earlier this month and had to drop from touring with the band. Now he has passed.

If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.
