Impossible. 74% of Americans are vaccinated. They can't contract Covid-19 (according to President Biden). Let alone be hospitalized.
At least 206,461,869 people or 63% of the population have received at least one dose.
Overall, 175,538,025 people or 53% of the population have been fully vaccinated.

Obviously, it seems among the side-effects of Japanese covid we now need to count a severe blindness to the naked facts. It seems reality is stronger than your Japanese propaganda:
Japan's Covid Disaster
Perhaps your teacher is also blind? Or were you cycling in a parallel Okinawa full of unicorns? Total cases, daily new cases, active cases, total deaths, and ratio between newly infected and recovered cases are rampant in Japan. No wonder: the Japanese are just like any other country. No matter how 'better than the rest' you think you are.
Face it: being Japanese is no passport for unicornland. You'll die, like any other human being. See, Lady Death cares not about what passport you wave at her. In fact, your Japanese propaganda works contrary to your intent as it shows how naive you can get in refusing to believe a single, simple, naked truth: no one is better than anyone else.

Much more to do with nurses quitting over a variety of reasons, and thus driving the many years' long pre-existing nurse shortage here into the mantle. It was already borderline severe before covid.
But piss off the nurses with propaganda and restricted personal choice, and this is what happens. More leave. quick edit: And people can't figure out why no one wants to be a nurse anymore? The patients aren't who's thankless to them. Between bad pay, and covid, I don't blame them. Not enough money on the planet to lure me that way, either.
CDC Current Covid-19 Hospitalization graph:
The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)-Associated Hospitalization Surveillance Network (COVID-NET) conducts population-based surveillance for laboratory-confirmed COVID-19-associated hospitalizations in children (persons younger than 18 years) and adults. The current network covers nearly 100 counties in the 10 Emerging Infections Program (EIP) states (CA, CO, CT, GA, MD, MN, NM, NY, OR, and TN) and four additional states through the Influenza Hospitalization Surveillance Project (IA, MI, OH, and UT). The network represents approximately 10% of US population (~32 million people).

The recent spike was due to the Olympics and most certainly the Paralize Olympics

Sure, musicismagic, sure the recent spike is due to those bloody foreigners, especially the handicapped ones... Were not for those inferior beings, the Land of the Rising Unicorn would had been covid-free... Sure. Unfortunately for you, and anyone, viruses know nothing about flags, nations, races, or gender. They strike regardless of your beliefs, religion, language, skin color, or of whether you like or dislike this or that. Much like tsunamis. Or am I to assume tsunamis hit Japan just because you are a retarded people??
Truly, I tell you musicismagic natural disasters happen regardless of how clever you are, or of how dumb your neighbors think you are.

I really doubt this part or claim. How do they explain that majority of hospitals when you step inside are actually half empty or not as busy as MSM claims?
Not all facilities are set up for covid. Those parts are empty because they deal with other things. Sports injuries for example are down due to lockdown, so physio wards are seeing less traffic.

It seems MSM is now trying to find more scapegoat for the vax side effects will be occurring more frequently i dont think they will able to hide it anymore to protect the mRNA vax drug markers. Or other vax markers.
There will be more protests and MSM i am sure will try not to report on it.

ICU bed usage or availability is still much much better than it ever was at its peak around January
What good is beds when you have no nurses?
