7 states see infections triple… People seen CLIMBING OVER EACH OTHER for tests…

  •  Covid cases have increased by over 200% – or three-fold – over the past two weeks in seven U.S. states as Omicron continues spread in the U.S.
  • Hawaii has been the hardest struck, with cases increasing nearly ten-fold over the past two weeks
  • New York is experiencing the highest rate of positive cases in the U.S., with 167 out of every 100,000 residents testing positive every day
  • Cases are declining in states like Alaska and Michigan where the death rate is among the highest in the nation, signaling the recent surge is nearing the end

New York state COVID hospitalizations ballooned over the Christmas holiday, topping 5,500 for the first time since late February, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Monday, and while daily cases were considerably lower than the record-shattering highs of the last 10 days, a more accurate picture on that front is expected in a day.

As of Monday, statewide hospitalizations stand at 5,526, the highest total since February 23 and a near 190% increase since Nov. 1 alone. That’s still well short of the 7,000 New Yorkers who were hospitalized with COVID this time last year, and the sheer volume of omicron infections will likely translate to some more severe cases by default, especially among the unvaccinated, Hochul says
